Seat has revealed its new Leon Cupra R ST – a performance version of its mid-size estate car.
Powered by a turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol engine, it produces 296bhp and can push the Leon Cupra R ST from 0-60mph in just 4.7 seconds.
Power is sent to the road through all four wheels via a seven-speed DSG gearbox, and new uprights have been fitted to the front axle to improve cornering abilities.
The exterior has been treated to a range of visual upgrades to help distinguish it from the rest of the Leon range. Copper-colour highlights have been applied across the bodywork, while carbon fibre has been used on components such as the front splitter, rear spoiler and wing mirrors.
Prices for the new Leon Cupra R ST have yet to be announced.
