It’s time for the Cupra Ateca to go head-to-head with the Golf R! Normally, the Ateca would roll up with the power to hit 300hp, slightly lower than the Golf R's 310hp. However, Mat's had a £1500 upgrade fitted under the bonnet! Will it make a difference? It's time to find out... Let us know what you think in the comments below!

Hey guys, to clarify - the £500 upgrade was only offered by SEAT as a special deal on top-of-the-range Leon Cupras. SEAT still don't offer the upgrade on the Ateca, but through ABT you can upgrade either car, just at a higher price.

@cupra-400-abt6 4 года назад

@johnjackson12 5 лет назад

£500 for 50bhp. Absolutely worth it! And keeps warranty. Wonder why vw don't offer the same upgrade under warranty

@ethanDAboss11 5 лет назад

As a Golf R owner myself, I can confirm that VW does offer the same upgrade. It's an ECU tune that brings the car up from 292 HP to around 370. I live in the states and VW offers this for around $1500 and it doesn't void warranty. The dealer said that you can get the same tune for around $500 from a 3rd party company but that does void warranty, but I personally fancy keeping my 6-year warranty.

Abt is a completely independent family business and has no connection to Audi except that they lead the race as a team in Formula E and DTM. Therefore, Abt will never give accessories in the configurator. Abt only distributes that himself

Didn’t Audi have a collaboration with Abt for the 705PS RS6 Nogaro Edition though ? So i guess they could do that again.

@florianj6490 5 лет назад

@@Kaisuke971 Yes you are right. The Abt power upgrade was only available in this strictly limited special edition. That's why I do not think they offer it on several models. The power upgrades are also a core business of Abt. That's why they certainly could that, but do not want that, I think. They would lose many customers if that already is available at the Audi configurator. Edit: Maybe you could ask Daniel Abt on his channel for it
