Cupra has just dropped some exciting news for car fans. They’re updating their well-loved Formentor, Leon, and Leon Sportstourer models starting in July 2025. Expect improved tech, fresh design choices, and extra safety features—all aimed at making your driving experience smoother. Ignasi Prieto, Cupra’s brand director, summed it up nicely: “We continue to push the limits of design and technology. These updates make the Formentor and Leon even more expressive, sophisticated, and confident on the road.” (Think of it as a fresh twist on your favorite rides.)
Tech tweaks
Among the cool new features is the introduction of the Cupra Matrix LED Ultra headlights. These next-gen lights come with a dynamic system that boosts visibility (and safety) no matter the driving conditions. Packing a whopping 25,000 pixels, they display nifty welcome and locking animations right at the front. The three-triangle lighting pattern not only gives the car a stylish edge but also ramps up practicality.
The headlights feature anti-dazzle high beams that automatically dim when meeting oncoming traffic (so you’re not blinding anyone), while the dynamic low beams are designed to keep night driving safe and on point. These innovations showcase Cupra’s dedication to blending advanced tech with everyday usability.

Safety upgrades
Safety is a top priority for Cupra, and that’s why they’re rolling out the new Front Cross Traffic Assist. This system uses radar sensors to spot vehicles crossing at low speeds, alerting you with visual and audio cues at speeds up to 18.6 mph. If it senses a possible collision, it can kick in emergency braking at speeds up to 6.2 mph (just in case things get too close for comfort). By stepping up safety in tight traffic situations, it helps keep everyone a bit more secure on the road.
Design refresh
Along with tech and safety, Cupra is bringing in a bold new paint option called “Dark Void.” This look infuses a distinctive and assertive vibe across all trims of their compact models. It’s a nod to the brand’s love for pushing design boundaries while keeping things elegant and stylish.
The “Dark Void” finish adds a fresh twist to Cupra’s lineup for drivers wanting to stand out on the road. By expanding their range of colors, Cupra offers more personal style options while staying true to their reputation for stylish innovation.
What to expect
These updates hit the market starting in July 2025, following their big summer announcement. Whether you’re into the Formentor, Leon, or Leon Sportstourer, there’s something here for every taste. Cupra’s timing couldn’t be better, as more drivers look for rides that blend top-notch tech with sleek design.
As we gear up for these changes in 2025, it’s clear that innovation is at the heart of Cupra’s game plan. With fresh features like the Matrix LED Ultra headlights and Front Cross Traffic Assist, paired with the standout “Dark Void” design, Cupra is setting the stage for a whole new look at driving pleasure. So buckle up—this isn’t just another update; it’s a whole new era of excellence in style and function.
