Cupra is expanding the Ateca’s range of engines and equipment levels, providing three powertrain options.

New engines and equipment will be available to order from July 2023

The Cupra Ateca’s 300hp 2.0-litre TSI engine is joined by a 1.5-litre TSI 150hp petrol engine and a 2.0-litre TSI 190hp unit.

Both new engines are paired with the seven-speed dual-clutch DSG-auto transmission but the larger engine also incorporates 4Drive all-wheel drive technology.

“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.”

The Cupra Ateca’s exterior design gains a new rear diffuser and, inside, Cupra Bucket seats can be specified with satellite controls (VZ3 trim only). Cupra-specific door inserts and copper stitching complete the changes.

The new line-up of engines and equipment will be available to order from July 2023.
