Car manufacturer Cupra (formerly part of Seat) has announced the Leon Cupra R ST, a performance estate/wagon with all-wheel drive.
The newcomer comes powered by a 2.0-liter TSI turbo engine rated at 300 hp (224 kW) and 400 Nm (295 lbft) of torque. It works in tandem with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and 4Drive AWD.
The car only needs 4.9 seconds to get going at 100 km/h (62 mph) and reaches its limit at 250 km/h (155 mph).
The Leon Cupra R ST features 19-inch wheels, Brembo brakes in front, a carbon-fiber aero kit, a quad-pipe performance exhaust system, and negative camber.
The cabin uses Alcantara upholstery with faux carbon accents.
Base features include digital dashboard, bucket seats, and a multimedia system with an 8-inch display.
First cars will arrive in dealerships later this month.
