- After successively launching three SUVs from different segments (Arona from B segment, Ateca from C segment , Tarraco from D segment) which meet the growing demand for SUVs all over Europe and even worldwide, the Spanish carmaker Seat (a subsidiary of the group Volkswagen) has just unveiled the fourth generation of its C segment sedan, the Leon.

- Designed on the Volkswagen group’s MQB Evo platform, the new Leon is 9 cm longer than the old one (4.37m) and its wheelbase increases by 5 cm (2.67m) which improves cabin space.

- It will be produced on the Spanish site of Martorell as previously.

- Inovev forecasts a volume of 150,000 units per year, slightly less than the volumes produced between 2014 and 2018, a period when the Seat SUVs had not yet been successful. Today, sedans are less popular with customers.
