SEAT Leon Copa: Limited Sport Edition Version with 285HP

Inspired from the Leon Supercopa racing series, SEAT launched a limited edition version of its Leon Cupra model equipped with a modified 2.0-liter TFSi generating 285 Hp vs the standard car’s 240 HP. Additionally, the Spanish carmaker overhauled the Leon Cupra with Eibach springs, larger brakes and a more aggressive bodykit combined with 18-inch black alloy wheels.

According to SEAT, the Leon Cope Edition can sprint from standstill to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 5.9 seconds. Unfortunately, even if you are living in Europe, there aren’t many chances that you’ll be able to buy one as the Spanish carmaker will produce a mere 55 units of the car that will be sold for the equivalent of €38,500 or $60,900. –Click through for more pictures

Seat Leon FR550 Limited Sport Edition

Celebrating the British Touring Car Championship season (BTCC) that kicks off at Brands Hatch on Sunday 30th March, SEAT unveiled a new limited edition of its Leon hatch inspired from its diesel-powered Leon TDI racers. Or at least that’s what SEAT supports because the special edition FR550 – ‘550’ representing the total number of models being made available –differs from the Leon FR TD only in terms of equipment.

Specifically, the ‘550’ package adds bucket-style seats with sporty integrated head restraints, a set of 18-inch ‘Draco’ alloy wheels, a USB connection for iPod or MP3 connectivity and a FR550 tailgate badging. Available colors include the Candy White and Black Magic along with two shades of grey, SEAT-trademark Emocion Red and the lime green, Citrus. -Continued after the jump

There are no changes under the bonnet as the ‘550’ shares the same 170 PS, turbo charged 2.0-litre TDI that powers the Leon FR TDI. The 135 mph/ 217 km/h hatch can go from rest to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 8.2 seconds, offering an average fuel consumption of 6.0 lt/100km or 39.2 US MPG on the combined cycle, and as much as 47.0 US MPG or 5.0 lt/100 km out of town. The car, available to order now at SEAT dealerships nationwide, costs £18,405 RRP – a modest £400 more than the standard FR 2.0 TDI. -Pic Edited by Carscoop

SEAT Leon Ecomotive: Avg. Cons. Of 3.9lt/100 km or 60.3 MPG!

VW’s Spanish subsidiary SEAT has launched the eco-friendly Leon Ecomotive that gives us a good example of how European carmakers plan to fight the energy and environmental issues of our time. The Leon Ecomotive is equipped with VW Group’s ultra frugal 105 HP 1.9 TDi turbo-diesel unit that has received additional improvements to its electronic management. Also, the compact hatch's gear ratios are 8.2% longer overall due to the lengthening of the third, fourth and fifth gears. various modifications. -Continued

Furthermore, the improvements also incorporate the weight of the vehicle, which has been reduced thanks to the detailed study of the equipment package and the elimination of certain options, and thanks to lower resistance tyres, making it possible to mount 195/ 65 tyres on 15 inch wheels or 205/ 55 tyres on 16 inch wheels. The result is an avg. consumption figure of just 3.9 l/100 km or 60.3 MPG and a C02 emiisons of just 119 g/km.
