The recently redesigned Seat Leon got 10 extra horsepower with the Cupra R version compared to the regular Cupra version. That means it has as many under the hood as a VW Golf R. Congratulations, SEAT!
While it is Golf R serial car, but they are at the company Seat decided to send to the market with the R mark only 799 vehicles. As a kind of special edition for the most enthusiastic about this brand. But Seat compared to Golf R it differs in that it is still driven only on the front pair of wheels. In which, with such a choice of horsepower, it is actually unique and therefore particularly toxic.

There are also colors that are reserved only for the Cupra R model. So you can order it in Midnight Black or Pyrenees Grey, and a matte gray color is also available.
