Hello everyone,

I sold my 2023 Cupra Formentor 245HP to purchase the 2025 Cupra Leon 204HP.
I wanted a longer electric range.
However, I don't understand the power difference between the 204HP and 272HP versions.
The electric motor produces 116HP on both models, and the gasoline engine in the 272HP produces 177HP (+27HP).
For an additional 27HP, the output goes from 204HP to 272HP.
Normally, the calculation should be 204HP + 27HP = 231HP.
If I understand correctly, the electric and gasoline engines are identical on both models.
The power difference is controlled electronically (limited for the 204HP).
Do you have any information about this?
