The new Seat X-Perience will make its public work debut at this year’s National Ploughing Championships, a week ahead of its launch at the Paris Motor Show. This new car is a compact SUV with permanent four-wheel-drive and is aimed firmly at the rural driver market. It will be shown alongside new versions of the Leon ST and the big value Seat Alhambra family-size people carrier.

With its four-wheel-drive and extra ground clearance, Seat claims that the Leon X-Perience is capable in all road situations and poor weather conditions. Inside and out, it retains all of the Leon ST’s style, including its sizeable 587-litre boot, which rises to 1,470 litres with the rear seats folded at the pull of a single lever.
