1. Does adaptive cruise control work from standstill or are they any (lower/upper) speed limits?
2. How effective is dynamic chassis control in Cupra? Is it a standard equipment in all Cupra models? Is it a must have feature?
I would be quite annoying if the acc doesnt work below 30 so you cant use it in slow moving traffic.
Forgot to mention I am looking at cupra 280, is this standard on this model as well?
Cruise control is standard, but not adaptive cruise control. Look for a small square in the lower front grill as an indicator for adaptive cruise - this is the sensor
DCC and variable driving modes are standard.
That is not correct - the ACC works from 0-160 km/t (0-100 m/h)..

I have a 2016 Cupra and the acc system on all mk3's are the same.
You can choose any speed between 1 and 100 m/h and it will bring you to a complete stop - the only difference between the different models is that for 2017 going forward it will hold the brake for you once stopped. On pre facelift models it stops the car and then you have to hold the brake until the car in front starts moving again. You can then just release the brake and re activate the system without touching the throttle.
The sensor used for the acc system can "see" 300 meters forward hence the speed limit of 100 m/h. The limit is the same on most VAG cars with the exception being the all new vw coupe that uses another sensor and in connection with cameras will allow acc up to 210 km/h.
It is similar for other brands i.e. both Mercedes and BMW have limits at 200 km/h for the acc.

I copied and pasted the text out of the manual for the 2017 Leon. Maybe they changed the spec as older literature does refer to a lower top speed for ACC.![]()
