Geneva Show 2012 Highlights: 2013 SEAT Ibiza


The facelifted SEAT Ibiza supermini has made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show.

The front end has been redesigned to fit in with SEAT’s new design language – seen on the firm’s most recent models like the Alhambra – so the grille has been stretched and the headlights are now more angular.

Meanwhile, SEAT has simplified the climate controls and improved a few of the cabin materials for a more classy feel. The dials are now clearer and there’s a larger glovebox too.

Underneath the bonnet, most of the engine line-up has been made more efficient. The 1.2 TDI Ecomotive model in particular has seen CO2 emissions fall from 92g/km to 89g/km and fuel economy increase from 80.7mpg to 83.1mpg.

For the first time in an Ibiza, SEAT is now offering the estate ST model with a powerful 1.4-litre twin-charged petrol engine. The Ibiza ST FR will accelerate from 0-62mph in 7.8 seconds and on to a top speed of 132mph.

The new Ibiza is due to go on sale in spring and is likely to command a slight premium over the current model.For more details click here.
