The Seat Leon IV (type KL) is a compact class vehicle from the Spanish automobile brand Seat .

history

The model was presented on January 28, 2020. It is based, among other things as the VW Golf VIII and the Audi A3 8Y on the modular transverse matrix MQB evo of the Volkswagen Group . Seat invested around 1.1 billion euros in the development and production of the new generation.

The fourth generation of the Leon has been produced at Seat's Spanish plant in Martorell since January 2020 . Orders started at the end of March 2020, and the series came to dealers in April 2020.

Dimensions

As with the Golf and A3, there is no three-door version. Compared to the previous Seat Leon III model, the wheelbase has grown by 50 millimeters to just under 2.69 meters. The five-door has a total length of 4.37 meters, the Sport Tourer combination model, which is also available again, measures 4.64 meters. The trunk volume of the five-door remains unchanged at 380 liters, the station wagon has a capacity of 620 liters, a little more than the previous model.

technology

The digital multimedia system uses an 8.25 or 10 inch touchscreen, depending on the equipment. Hardly any physical buttons are used in favor of gesture control . In addition, the vehicle can be operated via Amazon's voice control system “ Alexa ” if required. It is activated by pronouncing the Spanish word "Hola" twice. A 10.25-inch digital display is available for the driver. There is also the option of opening the car using a smartphone. Service interventions can be carried out "over the air" via software updates, so the car does not have to be connected to a diagnostic device.

Furnishing

The fourth generation of the Leon will be offered in four equipment lines for the market launch.

Cupra Leon

In contrast to the previous model, the sporty versions of the series are now marketed as Cupra Leon and no longer as Seat Leon Cupra . The Leon thus follows the Cupra Ateca , with which the launch of the independent brand began in 2018. The Cupra Leon was presented on February 20, 2020. The market launch is planned for the fourth quarter of 2020.

Three gasoline engines and a plug-in hybrid are available as drive variants. The two 180 kW (245 PS) versions are also used with the respective drive train in the VW Golf GTI and VW Golf GTE . The 228 kW (310 hp) top model is only available for the station wagon and only with all-wheel drive.

Racing versions

As part of the presentation of the Cupra versions, two racing versions of the series made their debut: the Cupra E-Racer and the Cupra Leon Competición . The battery-electric powered E-Racer has four electric motors on the rear axle, which enable a maximum output of 500 kW (680 PS). It should accelerate to 100 km / h in 3.2 seconds, and the manufacturer specifies a top speed of 270 km / h. The Leon Competición is a conventional racing car with a 250 kW (340 PS) two-liter gasoline engine. Tempo 100 is to be reached in 4.5 seconds, the top speed is given as 260 km / h.

Technical specifications

In addition to pure combustion engines (petrol, diesel and CNG), the range of engines also includes a mild hybrid with a 48-volt electrical system and plug-in hybrid drives. A lithium-ion accumulator with a capacity of 13 kWh, in combination with an 85 kW (115 PS) electric motor, enables an electric range of up to 60 kilometers.
