The Seat 127 was produced as a two-door sedan or three-door hatchback with a large tailgate from spring 1972 in Spain, initially as a license production of the Fiat 127 only in the same body shapes. A year later, a four-door sedan was offered as a Spanish specialty - as with the models 600 , 800 and 850 before - which was also offered in other countries as the Fiat 127. Like the Fiat 127, the vehicles were equipped with a 4-cylinder in-line engine with 903 cm³ displacement and an output of 34.5 kW / 47 hp. The transverse engine at the front transmitted its power to the front wheels via a 4-speed gearbox. The Seat 127 drove up to 140 km / h.

Seat 127 five-door (1980–1982)

From autumn 1977 a revised Seat 127 was offered. The facelift corresponded to the Italian model. In addition, the Seat 127 Especial was offered with a larger engine (1010 cm³, 38 kW / 52 PS), which enabled a top speed of 145 km / h. There was also an open Kübelwagen Seat Samba 127 as a recreational vehicle.

With the introduction of the Seat Panda in the summer of 1980, the function as an entry-level model ceased and a five-door hatchback with a large tailgate was introduced.

After the company was taken over by the VW Group, the Seat 127 was revised in early 1982 and renamed the Seat Fura . The Seat 127 and Seat Fura have produced over 1.3 million vehicles in 13 years. This made them the Spanish automaker's most successful models.
