SEAT Leon Is Sporty, Stylish And Practical

The SEAT Leon has been developed by sharing with other vehicles in the VW group. It has been given the charge to compete with Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra. It shares most of its technology and mechanical parts with the newest Golf and Audi A3. All of the engines are now turbocharged and are boast direct injection. The new units in the engine range are up to twenty two percent more efficient than their predecessors. The most popular SEAT Leon engine is the 1.6 TDI Ecomotive which delivers 75mpg and emits less than 100g/km of CO2. Leon will soon have an even more economical Ecomotive model which will have sub 90g/km emissions.

The current range topper is the 2.0 TDI FR engine, it is powerful and a keen driver's vehicle. It achieves 0-62mph in 7.5 seconds but still delivers more than 65mpg. The latest offering from SEAT gets the latest technology and VW group know-how but it is still around 10% cheaper to buy than the latest Golf. The new Leon is very trendy and more practical than before. The ride comfort ...
... has been improved along with the interior and now it also boasts a full five star Euro NCAP rating. The Leon is the best car to drive as it uses Golf's chassis. All models offer a relaxed and comfortable ride. It boasts outstanding, accurate steering, sharp gear changes and powerful brakes.

Engines mated to a manual gearbox are far better than the dual-clutch ones. The 2.0 TDI FR engine is one of the best diesels in hot hatch class. The Leon has sporty car characteristics but that does not compromise the ride and make it uncomfortable. The seats fitted as standard are comfortable but the FR model seats offer even better side support. The interior has been improved massively and is now very spacious. There is no wind, tyre or road noise when driving on the motorway. The SEAT Leon is safer than before as it has lots of airbags and standard stability control. These factors helped it to achieve a five star rating in Euro NCAP crash tests. The cabin built quality is top-notch and the finish for the exterior body panels is remarkable.

The previous model of the Leon was not that much practical but this time around its spacious for the driver and passengers. A good driving position along with lots of cubby holes and cup holders make it much more practical. The boot space has increased by 39litres over its predecessor but the back seats cannot be folded flat which does not help if you are trying to load stuff. The new model is not just an average family car anymore, it can easily be regarded as one of the best in class. It has been improved from all aspects like quality, practicality, cabin space and drive. It can prove itself as a very wise choice for a small family and the new model is also expected to keep good residuals also.
