Welcome to the Afternoon Round-up, our daily rundown of the day's motoring news.

MG is rumoured to be unveiling a new SUV concept at the forthcoming Shanghai Motor Show. Pictures of the new MG CS Concept appeared online earlier today and appear to show an updated version of the MG Icon concept revealed at last year's Beijing Motor Show.


 

SEAT Leon

SEAT has announced it will launch a new hot hatch version of the Leon next year. The new Leon Cupra is rumoured to be more powerful than both the VW Golf GTI and the Skoda Octavia vRS, with its 2.0-litre petrol engine developing around 261bhp. Both three- and five-door versions will be available, and an estate is also reportedly on the cards.


 

Ford Mondeo

The Ford Mondeo is gaining two new models and a lower starting price, following delays to the new Mk5 model which was supposed to go on sale in the UK this spring. A new entry-level model, the Graphite, costs from just £15,995 -- more than £2,000 cheaper than the previous cheapest model. A new Titanium X Business Edition replaces both the Titanium and the Titanium X models in the range.


 

Range Rover Sport

Land Rover has officially announced the pricing and specification details for the new Range Rover Sport. The entry-level SE model with the 3.0-litre diesel V6 engine will cost from £51,550, HSE models will start from £59,995, HSE Dynamic trim costs from £64,995 and top-spec Autobiography Dynamic versions will start at £74,995.
