Get ready, SEAT could be brewing a Ateca Cupra 2017


Upon hearing the name Cupra us you are you usually put the hairs on end thinking of a powerful and effective enclosed in a wrapper utility car or compact cars. But in 2017 the historical use of that designation could change for the first time in SEAT.

According to point various sources like Autocar or Carscoops, managers at SEAT would be down the option of bringing production SEAT Ateca Cupra, a version with better dynamic skills that the brand new SUV brand, with an engine power close to 300 caballoscon motor current Leon Cupra 290 and an improved chassis. If you squeaked SUV sports, hang on!

A segment with few rivals ...


If these rumors to become a reality, the super-Ateca would be the first Cupra is not a Ibiza or a lion. A move that would largely encouraged by the good results is reaping the Ateca shortly after landing in the market. Its sales figures have exceeded initial expectations of SEAT.

This innocent SUV would be more than just a top version in Ateca family, it would also be one of the few prestacionales SUV market within generalist brands, more than an aggressive look on the outside and upholstery racing in the seats.


Within the Sport Utility Vehicle poussin not much variety. We can see a distant relative of Ateca, the Audi RS Q3 (367 hp, 70,360 €), or individual Juke Nismo Nissan RS (218 hp, 26,950 €). Other models like the Ford Edge 2.0 TDCi Vignale Bi-Turbo (209 hp € 57,925) or the Volkswagen Tiguan Sport (190 hp € 42,260) remain simple facade.

If SEAT is able to run as a true SUV with dynamic aspirations and enough power it could take advantage of a gap that the most popular brands (in the sociological sense of the word) are not covering. All we see are diesel with huge tires, but nothing more.

... And many aspirations


Yes it is true that in higher price ranges are a type of car that has its market, such as the case of the Mercedes-Benz GLA 45 AMG (is it an SUV?) Or BMW X4 M40i. At least brands have seen fit to bet on them and not sold all bad.

Above them are clear and numerous examples of anfetaminados SUVs sell well, even better than one would expect. Porsche Cayenne, Infiniti FX, Range Rover Sport Mercedes-Benz ML ... huge more than enough power and a fierce sporty SUVs. But very expensive.

There is a large audience who would like to have one of these prestacionales SUV but not can afford in any way. If finally SEAT was encouraged to launch a Ateca Cupra try to collect cravings of those who want a fun and relatively dynamic car with the comfort and interior space of an SUV, but with a reasonable price.

The top current range of Ateca family, SEAT Ateca 2.0 TDI 190 hp 4Drive Start & Stop Xcellence DSG costs 36,750 euros, the Spanish brand would have room to bring dealers more than an edition limited edition without getting in exorbitant prices.

Who knows, maybe the SEAT Cupra Ateca is becoming the next SEAT Leon FR yellow.
