Cupra Leon deals: Spanish warm hatch cheaper than a base VW Golf

Cupra Leon deals: Spanish warm hatch cheaper than a base VW Golf

7NEWS7 days ago
Cupra Australia is offering run-out deals across its pre-facelift Leon and Formentor ranges until September 30, which sees the entry-level 140kW Leon V dip under $40,000 drive-away.
Until September 30, the Spanish brand is advertising several deals for model year 2024 (MY24) stock of the Leon and Formentor, ahead of updated models landing in the coming months.
Headlining the deals is the Leon V for $39,990 drive-away, and the popular 228kW Formentor VZx crossover for $61,990 drive-away.
Cupra says the Leon V drive-away deal is equivalent to around $36,000 before on-road costs, making it cheaper than a base Volkswagen Golf as well as a slew of Korean- and Japanese-badged rivals with less power and performance.

MY24 Cupra Formentor deals (until September 30):
While the savings off RRP are all fairly substantial, some pricing – namely the Formentor's promotional offers – have been in effect for most of this year as special deals, but now extended further until September 30 (previously June 30).

Cupra is in the midst of a massive product offensive, not just in Australia but globally.
The Spanish subsidiary of the VW Group has already released the all-electric Tavascan coupe SUV and now the new Terramar mid-size SUV in Australia, the latter tipped to be a key volume driver for the brand Down Under.
October will see the release of the facelifted Leon range, including the local debut of the Sportstourer wagon version for Australia, first with a 200kW plug-in hybrid drivetrain with a 245kW petrol-fired hero due early in 2026. In November the Terramar range will gain a 200kW VZe plug-in hybrid version also.
From there the top-selling Formentor crossover will get its mid-life refresh early in 2026 (more details to come), and the Born electric vehicle will return during the first quarter of next year in the form of the 240kW VZ hot hatch.
Cupra's team has indicated cheaper and less performance-focused versions of the Born are also under study, but their local reintroduction may have to wait for an incoming facelift which is still to be revealed, but likely to surface in the next 12 months.

Toyota estimates tariffs will cost it A$15 billion this financial year

With the tariff situation in the US seemingly calming down a bit, Toyota has finally offered some insight on how much it will hurt the company's bottom line. Toyota estimates tariffs in the US will cost it ¥1.4 trillion ($14.5 billion) in this financial year, which ends March 2026. That's up ¥1.2 trillion ($12.5 billion) from the previous financial year. The US and Japan recently signed a deal, which will see tariffs on most Japanese imports, including cars and automotive components, reduced to 15 per cent, but it's unclear when that will come into force. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new car. Click here to get a great deal. Supplied Credit: CarExpert Toyota also operates three plants in Ontario, Canada, which make the RAV4, as well as the Lexus RX and NX. The company also has two factories in Mexico which produce the Tacoma ute. Thanks to an on-going trade war started by President Trump, cars imported from Canada and Mexico are subject to a 25 per cent tariff on components that don't meet the criteria set out in the United States Mexico Canada Agreement free-trade pact signed during President Trump's first term. With Toyota now confident enough to guesstimate how much tariffs will cost, it has issued a prediction for its full year profit, which it believes will fall to 3.2 trillion ($33.2 billion). That's down ¥1.6 trillion ($16.6 billion) from the financial year that finished March 2025. Supplied Credit: CarExpert Toyota expects sales for the financial year to stay flat at 11.2 million vehicles, with Japan accounting for 1.5 million of those. In its results for the April to June 2025 quarter, the company made a profit of ¥1.2 trillion, down 11 per cent from the same time last year. Due to the tariff situation, North America posted a ¥21.1 billion loss, down from a ¥85 billion profit during the same period last year. Supplied Credit: CarExpert Toyota's North American operations isn't the only one suffering from tariff uncertainty. Ford posted a US$36 million (A$55.9 million) loss in the April to June quarter despite record revenue numbers, and predicted it could lose around US$3 billion (A$4.66 billion) in tariff costs for the full year of 2025. GM lost US$1.1 billion (A$1.68 billion) in the April to June quarter, blaming it all on the tariff situation. Stellantis, the parent of Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Chrysler, Peugeot, Citroen, Fiat and others, recorded a €2.3 billion (A$4.1 billion) loss for the first half of the year, although most of that comes from restructuring and cancelling development programs. The French-Italian-American automaker expects tariffs to cost it up to €1.5 billion (A$2.7 billion) for the full year. tvMORE: Everything Toyota
