Cupra has updated the Leon and Formentor, bringing new technology and powertrains along with a major styling overhaul.

The new models are on sale now. Pricing for the Leon starts at £31,090, while the Formentor is available for £33,450.

A key upgrade is the new eHybrid plug-in hybrid engine, which offers lower company car tax and better performance than before.

Both cars adopt the new Cupra styling DNA, with a shark-nose front end, triangular LED headlamps and a large lower grille.

The Leon becomes a standalone model in the Cupra line-up, with a bespoke look that sets it apart from its Seat counterpart.

Familiar interior layouts are carried over for the Leon and Formentor, but the infotainment screen has grown to 12.9 inches in both models. The system has been enhanced with a new layout and the touch sensitive sliders used to control the audio volume and cabin temperature are now illuminated.

Cupra has developed a new 12-speaker sound system in collaboration with audio specialist Sennheiser,  which is optionally available on both cars.

Powertrains include petrol TSI units and mild-hybrid eTSI units, as well as new eHybrid plug-in hybrid options.

The entry-level powertrain is a 150PS 1.5-litre. There's also a 2.0-litre with 204PS, 300PS and 333PS. The mild hybrid is also a 1.5-litre with 150PS.

Two plug-in hybrids are available with 204PS or 272PS. They both utilise a new 1.5-litre petrol engine and a 19.7kWh battery. The zero-emission range is at least 70 miles, officially, placing all eHybrid variants in the 5% benefit-in-kind tax band.

The battery support 50kW rapid charging and AC charging at up to 11kW. Models with the 272PS engine will be fitted with larger Brembo brakes.

Powertrains with an output of up to 204PS are offered in V1, V2 and V3 grades. The more powerful engines are available in VZ1, VZ2 and VZ3.

From the entry-level grade, all models are equipped with alloy wheels, adaptive cruise control, front and rear parking sensors, LED headlights and keyless entry.

V2 adds reversing camera, power folding door mirrors and heated front seats. The standard 18-inch alloys are also upgraded to 19-inch variants.

V3 gets electrically adjustable front seats, leather upholstery and blind spot monitor.

VZ models come with higher levels of standard equipment, including dynamic chassis control on VZ1.
