This Leon has long been a strong but often overlooked contender in the family hatchback segment and this MK4 version has been usefully improved. Buyers will appreciate the improved media connectivity and the mild hybrid and plug-in engine tech keeps the range right up to date.
Whether there really is 'latin spirit in every one' is another question of course. In the case of sportier versions like the FR models, we'd be tempted to say yes. Overall, on a pure value-versus-quality basis, this Leon has long been the pick of the Volkswagen Group offerings in this sector. And that also makes it one of the key segment benchmarks outside the Wolfsburg family of brands. Which in turn, makes it a very good car indeed.
