The Seat range has recently received several prestigious awards, confirming the popularity of its models on the market. At the same time, they are a recognition of the quality, character and sportiness that Seat always applies to all of its products.
 
The Seat Altea XL was chosen “Monospace Sprint Motor 2008” at the 6th edition of the Awards by readers of the specialised Galician motoring magazine Sprint Motor, as well as “Family Car of the Year” by Belgium’s VAB (Flemish Automobile Association) for its 105 hp 1.9 TDI version.
 
This has been a string of successes for SEAT’s monospace car, whose tempting offer of three Diesel and three petrol engine possibilities, combined with interior roominess and load capacity that do not hinder manoeuvrability in city driving, are in such high demand.
 
Furthermore, the Seat León was chosen Best Car of the Year 2007 in Poland after placing first in the National Auto Test (NAT) survey published in the Auto Swiat weekly (the Polish edition of Auto Bild). According to Polish drivers, the Seat León has “the best engine, guarantees a perfect refinement of its components, and is a lot of fun to drive. In addition, it also performs well in terms of the cost of ownership, spacious interior and handling”.
 
The Seat León was also chosen “University Car of the Year” in Spain in 2007 by Spanish university students.
 
The Altea and Alhambra complete the list of awards
 
The Altea range confirmed its superiority in the compact monospace segment by recently winning first prize in the van category in Europe’s most acclaimed and prestigious DEKRA study on vehicle defects.
 
The Altea was also chosen by Autoanálisis readers (comprising Muy Interesante, Autovia and Coche Actual) as the best compact monospace car, and the Seat Alhambra as best monospace car, an exceptional result that demonstrates the leadership of Seat vehicles as a result of their attractive, increasingly broad range.
