The SEAT Leon is a Great All-Rounder

As SEAT also comes under the Volkswagen Group

The SEAT Leon utilizes a large portion of the same mechanical parts as the Volkswagen Golf, Skoda Octavia and Audi A3. That is some really commended company, so you’d anticipate that the SEAT Leon will really great.

What’s more, you’d be correct – it’s amazing. In addition to the fact that it is less expensive than both the Golf and A3, however despite everything it feels high caliber, and also looking really sharp.

Obviously, as a family hatchback, the Leon must be viable and it deals with this with aplomb. The main car in the class that it truly lingers behind as far as inside and boot space is the Skoda Octavia – which trounces everything else in those regards.

Our just genuine issue is that the Leon’s precise styling makes for wide back rooftop columns and a little back screen, which bargains perceivably out the back.

Under the hood, there’s an awesome decision of petrol and diesel motors, all of which offer an extraordinary harmony in the middle of execution and mileage. In case you’re after a petrol, buy the 108bhp 1.2-litre petrol engine with four cylinders.

It’s smooth and feels substantially more effective than its yield recommends while it ought to be really shabby to run, as well. It’ll return almost 58mpg and radiates only 114g/km of CO2 for a yearly road tax of £30. Go for one of these in mid-level SE trim with a manual gearbox and you ought to be extremely upbeat.

Those hoping to do a lot of miles are prone to go for a diesel and the best alternative here is the 108bhp 1.6-litre. Smooth and capable, it’ll likewise return 74.3mpg and emanates under 100g/km of CO2. Once more, SE trim with a slick-shifting transmission is our pick.

All variants of the Leon come really very much prepared, with things such as a colour touchscreen infotainment framework, Bluetooth phone connectivity, voice control, air-conditioning and electric front seats all standard.
