SEAT to launch first electric model in 2020

SEAT is planning to unveil its first electric vehicle in 2020, built on the Volkswagen Group’s MEB platform and featuring a range of 310 miles.

This was announced by SEAT President Luca de Meo at the annual results presentation to the media held in Madrid.

SEAT is taking a step forward in boosting electric mobility, which includes the hybrid version of the new generation Leon, also in 2020.

In addition, the brand will remain committed to vehicles powered with compressed natural gas (CNG) as well as internal combustion engines.

The President of SEAT pointed out that “we can be happy with the 2017 results, but we shouldn’t be satisfied. Together we’ve closed a period of consolidation and now it’s time to look to the future with the ambition to grow.”
