The Cupra Leon 333 estate and Leon 300 hatchback are practical, surprisingly comfortable and quick, so we can see why you’d go for them. We’d avoid the more affordable engines and the e-Hybrid models though, because they’re fairly mediocre to drive and cost a premium over the Seat Leon.
This mid-spec VZ trim gets all the same kit as the VZ1 but also adds its own styling tweaks, inside and out. It’s probably not worth the extra you’ll pay.
Our favourite version of the Cupra Leon hatchback is also the most powerful one. This 296bhp engine makes the Leon feel mighty fast and really lives up to the hot hatch title.
At What Car?, we believe that no one should overpay for their new car, which is why we created our free New Car Buying service. This links you with trusted local dealers who base their offers on prices haggled by our mystery shoppers.
