SEAT has revealed what it describes as one of its most exciting sporting projects to date at the Barcelona Motor Show (24 April 2003), the SEAT Cupra GT racer prototype. The Cupra GT is the result of joint design and development work by SEAT Sport and the SEAT Design Centre and SEAT says that it features all the innovative technology and dynamic potential of a high performance GT coupled with the distinctive SEAT design and “auto emoción”.


The Cupra GT is powered by a 3-litre V6 twin turbo engine of Audi origin with an ouput of over 500 PS. It has an estimated top speed of 295 km/h and acceleration of 4.2 seconds for 0-100 km/h. The mid-mounted engine delivers its power through a 6-speed sequential gearbox.


The Cupra GT features the Walter de’Silva curved “Dynamic Line”, first seen on the Salsa concept, which runs from front, over the wheel arch gradually descending to the rear pillar.


The final version of the SEAT Cupra GT is expected to race in this year’s Spanish GT series and SEAT Sport will commence building GTs to customer order later this year.
