With an unchanged base price of 14.990 euros is now the lifted Seat Leon can be ordered. The entry-level version of the compact, available as a three- or five-door or as a station wagon, is powered by a 63 kW / 86 hp 1,2-liter turbo gasoline engine. There are also five other petrol engines with up to 132 kW / 180 hp and three diesels with 85 kW / 115 hp to 135 kW / 184 hp.
In addition to slight optical modifications, the lifting of the technology has given a push for modernization, especially in the assistance systems. A traffic jam pilot is now available, which automatically follows the vehicle in front when traffic is slow. Or an emergency braking function for city traffic, the sensors of which now also recognize pedestrians. In addition, there are traffic sign recognition, semi-automatic parking even in transverse gaps or improved performance of the camera and navigation system. (Holger Holzer / SP-X)
