The SEAT Leon has always been a core pillar in the brand’s vehicle line-up. Now, this model is helping the brand move in a new direction as the world shifts to an electrified and sustainable future. The SEAT Leon continues the successful path carved out by its predecessors but, as well as taking it to the next level in terms of connectivity, dynamism and safety, it is also leaping forward in terms of efficiency. The latest generation vehicle integrates a plug-in hybrid system, making the SEAT Leon e-HYBRID the brand’s first plug-in hybrid model and a key part of its electric offensive, in both five door and Sportstourer bodies. Designed, developed and produced in Barcelona, at the company’s headquarters in Martorell, the SEAT Leon epitomises the brand’s determination to deliver the latest technologies and shift to a future in line with changing environmental values.
Porsche takes the new 911 GT3 off the leash. The seventh edition of this high-performance sports car was also developed in close collaboration with Porsche Motorsport. It transfers pure racing technology into a production model even more consistently than ever before: the double wishbone front axle layout and sophisticated aerodynamics with swan neck rear wing and striking diffuser originate from the successful GT race car 911 RSR and the 375 kW (510 PS) four-litre six-cylinder boxer engine is based on the drivetrain of the 911 GT3 R, tried and tested in endurance racing. The acoustically impressive, high-revving engine is also used practically unchanged in the new 911 GT3 Cup. The result is a brilliant driving machine: efficient and emotional, precise and high-performance – perfect for the circuit and superb for everyday use.
