CUPRA Australia Director Ben Wilks expressed excitement about the response to the brand's entry into the Australian market, which has resulted in an increase of BEVs allocated to the market, and fresh supplies of Formentor and Leon VZe PHEVs. Wilks added that as other brands withdraw from the sporty hatchback market, CUPRA is able to offer three Leons - V, VZ, and VZx - for immediate delivery, as well as performance SUVs like the Ateca and Formentor.
