A Buying Guide to SEAT

Mii Electric

The Mii is a small city car which shares a lot of components with the Volkswagen Up! and Skoda Citigo due to being under the VW Group umbrella. While the Mii used to feature internal combustion engines under the bonnet, the brand now only offers it with an all-electric powertrain.

The range of the Mii Electric is WLTP-certified to be 162 miles – impressive for a city car – and, being priced from £19,300 new, it’s one of the most affordable mainstream EVs available in the UK.

Leon

Step up once again, and you’ll find yourself in the Leon – a model which is getting a new, fourth generation iteration for 2020. That being said, it’s not quite on sale just yet – although it can be pre-ordered. So, with that in mind, looking at the outgoing model, it can be had in hatch or estate form – just like the new generation – and is priced from £19,615 and £20,610 respectively. 

Going back to the new version, however, and buyers will be glad to know it can be had with a range of petrol, diesel, mild-hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains.

Ateca

The Ateca is your next point of contact if you like the sound of the Arona but wanting something larger. Sitting as a sturdy and versatile SUV, the Ateca has built a reputation as one of the most reliable SUVs in the UK market. The 2025 model features upgraded safety technology, improved ride comfort and a range of efficient engine choices. Having recently been revealed that SEAT have closed factory orders on the Ateca, now the only thing to do is break down the history of it and celebrate SEAT’s oldest SUV model.

SEAT Headquarters has informed SEAT UK of a change to the production schedule for the SEAT Ateca. As a result, SEAT Ateca closed for factory ordering as of Friday 16 January 2026, supporting SEAT’s product portfolio management and move to electrification. It is now closed for customer orders, since Thursday 15 January 2026. As of now, Ateca sales will be from stock only and the SUV will remain on our website. The Ateca will still be available from Swansway, including the car configurator, and will be supported by ‘from stock only’ messaging.

Since 2016, SEAT Ateca has been one of the brand’s most popular cars, loved for its design, drivability and technology, and nearly 80,000 have been sold to date. The entire SEAT range will be renewed with electrified options by 2028. The revamp will start with mild-hybrid versions of the Ibiza and Arona in 2027, followed by a full hybrid powertrain for the SEAT Leon in 2028, and further updates to the Leon and Leon Estate in 2029.

More news will be released with information on renewals opportunities towards the end of quarter one (Q1).

Alhambra

Buyers who aren’t interested in the whole SUV trend and are purely after practicality will want to check out the Alhambra. Though it’s a bit old compared to other current Seat models having begun production in 2011, there’s still a lot to like, such as third-row seating and a large boot (with the rear-most seats folded flat).

The Alhambra is priced from £31,000 and is available with a range of petrol and diesel engines.
