The SEAT Ibiza Vaillante is a comic-book hero fantasy come true. It was created by the SEAT Design Centre in Martorell, whose aim was to suggest the driver of a fictional car could be transported to a make-believe world and participate in the most unexpected adventures. For this reason, SEAT does not plan to manufacture a production model Vaillante, or to sell one in the future. Quite simply, it is a virtual car inspired by comic-strip fantasy for this motor show only, whose mission is to highlight SEAT’s sporty and young image, while also enhancing the launch of the new Ibiza 2006 range.

The most successful and best-known SEAT model, the Ibiza, has undergone a profound transformation, both in terms of its exterior styling and its interior design. Although it is not a new generation, it can be considered a new Ibiza since the restyling of its body emphasises its sporty and dynamic characteristics even further. At the same time, its appearance is now more consistent with the rest of the new SEAT range, as it features elements from the Altea, Toledo and León. The new SEAT Ibiza also features major improvements in terms of the look of its interior, which now uses even higher-quality materials. One example is the new trim finish and colours on the dashboard and the door panels. The applies to the upholstery, which is even more up to date and attractive in appearance.

The 38th Essen Motor Show will mark the world debut of the SEAT Altea FR. Derived directly from the prototype shown at September’s Frankfurt Motor Show, this latest model is the first in the new generation of SEAT cars to wear the famous letters FR (Fórmula Racing). By doing so, it taps into the rich FR heritage which has proved to be such a success in the Ibiza and the first generation León. This new, sportier version arrives only 20 months since the SEAT Altea was first unveiled, and in order to earn the FR stamp it features a long list of modifications to its styling, mechanics and dynamics.

The new León is here. The arrival of the second generation León sees SEAT launch the third model in its all-new product line-up following on from the Altea and Toledo. The characteristic traits of the brand’s new model image are plain to see in both the Altea and Toledo and now the new Leon. The SEAT Salsa concept car unveiled in 2000 has been the inspiration for the Spanish manufacturer in terms of styling ever since, turning it into automotive reality. The launch of the new León renews the second of the mainstays of the new SEAT image, as the León and Altea have been christened by SEAT President, Dr. Andreas Schleef. It has resulted in an elegantly styled body that neatly blends the sporty image of a stunning coupé with five-door practicality. Out of all of the new-generation models from SEAT, it is the new León which comes closest to expressing the very ultimate in sportiness and innovative design, thereby reinforcing SEAT’s own intrinsic values within the Audi brand group.
