Your SEAT Leon questions answered
The 2013-2020 SEAT Leon was offered with a choice of three- or five-door hatchbacks, or as a Sport Tourer (ST) estate – the three-door was discontinued in 2018 because most buyers want the extra practicality of five doors, but its stylish looks and rarity mean it’s well worth snapping up if you rarely use the rear seats.
This time around, there’s the five-door hatch and estate to pick from. The latter gets a truly huge boot that’ll swallow pushchairs, flatpack furniture and numerous suitcases. Both are offered with a new plug-in hybrid engine, alongside trusty petrol and diesel motors. As SEAT’s old Cupra performance brand is now left to fend for itself, the hot version of the SEAT Leon is now called the Cupra Leon.
The SEAT Leon is a pretty similar size to the Ford Focus and Volkswagen Golf, so you shouldn’t have any trouble parking and manoeuvring. The latest model is about 10cm longer than its predecessor, at a little over 4.3m, while the estate is just under 30cm longer than the hatchback. Reversing is made easier with standard-fit rear parking sensors.
SEAT has added 5cm to the Leon’s wheelbase for this new generation, resulting in more generous rear-seat space than the previous car. Adults should have no complaints when it comes to head or legroom, while the increase in size means it’s a little less likely that kids will be able to kick the front seats.
Boot space for the hatchback remains the same as before, at 380 litres. That’s on a par with its main rivals, although the Leon eHybrid comes with a little less space. If that’s not big enough, the Leon estate offers 620 litres of space – and almost as much as a small van with the seats folded.
Short of a fully electric Leon, SEAT offers a wide range of engine choices to suit a wide range of buyers. There are multiple petrol and diesel engines, plus fast options. For this latest model, SEAT has added hybrid tech to give this sharp hatch even more appeal.
The SEAT Leon uses a lot of familiar parts – its engines and underpinnings are shared with a whole host of VW Group cars – so reliability shouldn't be a worry. Keep up with regular servicing and maintenance and the Leon will be able to cover a lot of miles.
The SEAT Leon deserves a place on your shortlist if you're after a Golf-sized car. It's stylish, well-equipped, relatively practical, economical and good to drive. Leons are typically cheaper than an equivalent Golf, as well.
