Its funny as there is an option called extended safety for 135 but there is no explanation to what it includes.

Not impressed with this configuration tool at all. Makes me wonder what the end product would be like and whether it would have missing things like Ateca.

I think the VZ2 comes with standard brakes, non-copper alloys and perhaps a fabric interior, the VZ3 comes with Brembos, copper alloys and leather interior.

I think VZ1 is the launch edition, which is numbered and comes with the Matte paint (as standard), and panoramic roof on top of the VZ3 spec.

All this is speculation, as nothing definitive anywhere at the moment.

Pricing to be announced on 20th October
There is already model pricing on the Cupra website , just not what the spec and options are....

I recall one was just under the £40k threshold and the other around £43k - no mention of the Launch edition price.

20th October is the release of price of the launch edition. I have not been able to figure out the difference between the vz2 and vz3 edition on the website. Both are identical and same options are available as extras.

The spec listed does differentiate on the wheel colouring - the rest I am making educated guesses...

My money is on the launch edition coming in around £47500 given the apparent spec.

It would be interesting to see the price. I reckon it would be difficult to shift this car at anything over 43k.
Around 52k you can get a much powerful rsq3 with few less goodies.

Not sure about those wheels on the VZ3, or some of those colours. The basic white is the only way to get a sub 40k price point too. I really liked on the Ateca where all paint options were metallic, and no additional cost. Won't be many people trading out then, I wonder how many they'll sell in the UK for £45k!
