First look: 2024 Cupra Leon gets new looks and engines

Cupra is giving its striking Leon hatchback and Sportstourer estate a refresh as the company continues to grow its market share and expand its portfolio of models. The fresh look aligns the Leon with newer cars from the Spanish brand - including the forthcoming Tavascan electric SUV - and creates a further distinction between it and the SEAT Leon that remains on sale.
Identifiable by the new triangular matrix LED headlights and shark-nose front end, the Cupra Leon’s good looks are sharpened even further. As with the company’s fully-electric Born hatchback, the Cupra logo now moves upwards to sit on the bonnet instead of the grille, and the lower bumper section now features a broader-looking air intake, underlining the car’s performance credentials. Those matrix LED headlights comprise three illuminated triangles within a triangular unit.
Cupra is adding two new colours to the palette called Century Bronze Matt and Enceladus Grey Matt. Those two new hues join Midnight Black, Fiord Blue, Magnetic Tech, Graphene Grey, Glacial White, Magnetic Tech Matt and Tiaga Grey as paint options. Both hatchback and estate body styles will come on either 18- or 19-inch wheels, depending on specification, and a total of nine different wheel styles are available. Design enhancements to the car’s rear include new light units that repeat the triangular styling of the front headlights. The Cupra logo on the rear is now illuminated as well.
