It’s hard to believe and estate car can be quick but with a ground-breaking best time of 7:58.12 minutes the SEAT Leon ST Cupra is now the fastest estate car around the Nürburgring Nordschleife. This was an incredible time achieved by the very capable Spanish racing driver and SEAT brand ambassador Jordi Gené. He commented after the run “It was an indescribable feeling to get the best out of this car and to be the first to achieve this record.” The sports tourer gets huge benefits from the Limited Front Slip Differential (VAQ) of the SEAT Leon Cupra and the 6-speed manual gearbox systems that enable it to get all 280bhp to the road, even in tricky conditions.
