CUPRA is increasing the Ateca’s range of engines and equipment levels, delivering even more choice and value for its customers.
The CUPRA Ateca was the brand’s first model and, unique in its segment. It has been a key driver in the brand’s growth, and is now gaining new engine range. The compact SUV’s 300PS (221kW) 2.0 litre TSI engine is joined by a 1.5TSI 150PS (110kW) petrol engine and a 2.0TSI 190PS (140kW) unit.
Both linked to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission but the larger engine also incorporates advanced 4Drive all-wheel drive technology, delivering the unit’s power with exceptional control, no matter what the conditions.
“The CUPRA Ateca was key for the brand to base its growth on, and we’re now focused on developing the vehicle to maximise its offering, fulfilling our customers’ needs,” said Kai Vogler, Vice-President for Sales, and Marketing at CUPRA. “With the new range of engines, our ambition is to increase sales of the CUPRA Ateca, following the same trajectory we have taken with the CUPRA Leon.”
Both the 1.5TSI 150PS (110kW) and 2.0TSI 190PS (140kW) engines are designed to meet CUPRA’s dynamic requirements, and the brand’s signature is continued in the exterior and interior design and equipment options, adding even more choice and value for its customers
The CUPRA Ateca’s exterior design gains a revised rear diffuser, adding to the vehicle’s sculpted look. Inside, CUPRA Bucket seats matches the sporty appearance along with the CUPRA steering wheel, which can be specified with satellite controls. CUPRA specific door inserts and copper stitching finish the look.
The new line-up of engines and equipment will be available for ordering from July 2023.
