CUPRA has unveiled a new CUSTOM CUPRA by ABT pack for the Leon and Formentor, giving buyers a factory-backed way to add a more aggressive look to both models.
Developed with ABT and hand-assembled at the CUPRA Racing Factory, the new package is designed to bring some of the visual attitude of CUPRA’s more extreme models to a much wider part of the range. It was presented at the Red Bull Ring in Austria during CUPRA Performance Days, and will be available from July 2026.
The key thing for buyers is that the package is not identical across the range, so here is a clearer look at what each model gets.
CUPRA Leon and Leon Sportstourer
For the Leon, the CUSTOM CUPRA by ABT pack takes inspiration from the Leon VZ TCR and gives both the hatchback and Sportstourer a much more aggressive appearance.
What the standard Leon models get
On standard CUPRA Leon models, the pack includes:
- Roof spoiler
- Rear C-flaps
- Rear winglets
- Rear splitter
- Side skirts
- Front splitter
- Dark chrome CUPRA logo
- Specific rear diffuser
- 19-inch Mistral alloy wheels in sport black matt
That gives the Leon a much more track-inspired look, especially around the rear, where the extra aero-style elements make the biggest difference visually.
What the Leon VZ models get
For Leon VZ versions, the overall package is similar, but there are some differences in the wheel setup.
Leon VZ models get:
- Roof spoiler
- Rear C-flaps
- Rear winglets
- Rear splitter
- Side skirts
- Front splitter
- Dark chrome CUPRA logo
- Specific rear diffuser
- 19-inch CUSTOM alloy wheels in sport black matt
On certain VZ versions, CUPRA is also pairing the pack with wider 245mm tyres. That applies to the Leon VZ 300PS, Leon VZ 325PS and Sportstourer VZ 333PS, or when combined with Akebono brakes.
CUPRA Formentor
For the Formentor, the design takes more inspiration from the VZ5 and is aimed at giving the SUV a more assertive, performance-led stance across the range.
What the standard Formentor models get
On all Formentor models except the VZ5, the pack includes:
- Roof spoiler
- Rear C-flaps
- Front air curtain frames
- Rear splitter
- Side door mouldings
- Front splitter
- Dark chrome CUPRA logos
- 19-inch CUSTOM alloy wheels in sport black matt
This version of the pack focuses on making the Formentor look lower, wider and more aggressive, particularly at the front where the splitter and air curtain frames sharpen up the nose.
What the Formentor VZ5 gets
The VZ5 gets its own version of the CUSTOM CUPRA by ABT pack, and it is not exactly the same as the rest of the Formentor range.
Formentor VZ5 models get:
- Roof spoiler
- Rear C-flaps
- Front air curtain frames
- Side door mouldings
- Dark chrome CUPRA logos
- 20-inch VZ5 Exclusive alloy wheels in glossy black
CUPRA notes that the front splitter and rear splitter are not included on the VZ5. So while it still gets the ABT treatment, the package is slightly different from the one fitted to the rest of the Formentor line-up.
Hand-assembled at CUPRA Racing
One of the more interesting details here is that every CUSTOM CUPRA by ABT pack is assembled by hand at the CUPRA Racing Factory. That is the same facility behind some of CUPRA’s motorsport projects, which gives the package a bit more credibility than a typical styling accessory pack.
It is still very much a design-focused upgrade rather than a full mechanical conversion, but CUPRA is clearly presenting it as something more special than a few dealer-fit trim pieces.
Available from July 2026
The CUSTOM CUPRA by ABT pack will be available from July 2026 for the CUPRA Leon, Leon Sportstourer and Formentor.
Buyers will be able to configure it when ordering a new car or have it retrofitted later through the authorised CUPRA dealer network.
For anyone who likes the look of CUPRA’s more extreme models but does not necessarily want the highest-powered version, this looks like a neat way of getting some of that styling without having to step right to the top of the range.
