New SEAT LEON ST

SEAT has unveiled its beautiful new Leon ST (Sports Tourer), completing the Leon family.

The ST builds on the stunning looks of its 5dr sibling with added practicality, making it one of the best-looking estates in its class. Customers no longer have to choose between sporty and practicality, the new Leon ST offers both.

The ST has the same excellent engine line-up as Leon SC and 5dr models, and offers customers exceptional economy combined with high performance.

The Leon ST becomes the third member of the new Leon family, which now comprises five-door hatchback, three-door SC and five-door ST estate.

The new Leon ST in detail

Dimensions

• At 4.54 metres, ST is 27cm longer than the 5dr model
• At 587 litres (seats up) 1,470 litres (seats down), boot capacity is 33 per cent bigger than that of the outgoing Exeo ST and 55 per cent bigger than that of the Leon five-door
• Entry level model weighs just 45kg more than 5dr equivalent

New technology

• Adaptive Chassis Control (DCC): adds another dimension to the SEAT driver profile, allowing you to adjust the suspension settings using four driver profiles: Normal, Sport, ECO and Individual
• Progressive steering: reduces steering effort when parking, but improves handling with more direct steering characteristics on winding roads
• Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC): radar based system that maintains a pre-set speed and distance from the vehicle in front, automatically accelerating and decelerating in flowing traffic. This system works on both manual and DSG transmissions at speeds between 19 and 99mph
