"The SEAT Toledo is a solid and practical family car that unfotunately lacking any excitement."

, the SEAT Toledo is dressed a hatchback sedan, counts the greater the SEAT range between Ibiza and Leon , In reality, it is almost exactly the same car like the Skoda Rapid-- and costs even approximately the same - but to be family favorites such as the Volkswagen Golf a funkier alternative to be as rapid
is greater than. golf and much less expensive, but just does not have the same quality to it and does not provide true driving thrills. The large hatch is, however, large enough to bring an extra level of functionality and allow easy transportation of large and bulky objects with relative ease. And low operating costs and a favorable price list make Toledo the type of car you are more likely to speak to than to buy a passionate impulse
The SEAT Toledo comes in three main specifications -. Entry E, mid-range S and top-of-the-range SE - with all offers an impressive price-performance ratio.

MPG, Rates & CO2 runs
-
All motors are cheap, but not tax-free model
run all the Toledo area - with the exception of the entry-level 1.2-liter - is to run pretty cheap , The 1.6-liter TDI diesel is the best-selling engine in the car, and if you go for the Ecomotive model, you can expect that the CO2 emissions from 104g / km to see that just missed the magic exempt 100g / km mark. The same engine also delivers a claimed 72.4mpg combined fuel economy that should give you an estimated tank range of 80 miles. The turbocharged petrol 1.2-liter TSI can only manage 55.4mpg return and offers the same performance as the diesel - makes so little sense in the real world.

motors, drive & Performance
-
has much wrong not to do on the road, but it's not very exciting
From there it means that is Toledo to go a bit like a driving test, - never too fast, never too slow, only resoundingly middle of the road. So it is good, in the city and strong on the highway, but not better than its main competitors
Of the engines available, the 1.2-liter TSI petrol and 1.6-liter TDI Ecomotive diesel are the best overall performance. - Both turns in about 10.5 seconds from 0-62mph acceleration more than enough power for driving in the city and just enough for driving on the highway.
There is not a huge amount of fun to be had even on winding roads, and it is not a car that would take you out of the garage for a drive in the name of fun. However, its steering is responsive, and the pedals is well positioned, it easy to use, predictable and secure. So boring a bit.

Interior & Comfort
-
Comfortable but bumps clearly felt in the city of
Like many other aspects of Toledo, his comfort level are firmly middle-of-the-road, impressive more than disappointed but never knock your socks off.
the nice padded suspension easily ironed out most of the large bumps and in the British rough roads found potholes, while the inside is possible enough for a conversation without shouting isolated, driving along whilst at 70mph. That is, it audible wind and road noise than in many other family cars, but given the price it does pretty well.
The seats are comfortable and supportive enough, and there is plenty of adjustment in the driving position - for Reach and rake in the steering wheel. The interior is a little plain Jane, but the dashboard and controls are built clean and logical. The only negative is if you are traveling at lower speeds in the city, the suspension has difficulty settling down, the action, the Toledo sometimes feel very jittery has.

practicality & trunk
-
, the boot is larger than many objects, and a lot of legroom in the rear
are particularly mean of Toledo dimensions that it provides a fairly substantial 550 liters of boot that is greater than see Peugeot 508 SW estate and a full 0 liters more than the standard hatchback Volkswagen Golf.
Since the hatchback boot allows for easier access to all the luggage, it is more practical than it looks from the outside, and you can use the rear seats easily fold down the cargo area even more to expand. S models also get to standard split-fold rear seats, but no version folds flat to leave an unpleasant load lip in the manner, if push objects. There is plenty of legroom in the back, but with enough room for four large adults to squeeze with relative comfort.

reliability and safety
-
Mechanicals used in other models with impressive results
SEAT's sister brand Skoda can be and Audi thanks to doing everything as part of the Volkswagen Group, but its reputation for reliability fit his not siblings. Placed in the 2013 Driver Power customer satisfaction survey, SEAT 27 out of 32 in the manufacturer rankings - hardly a hymn for the reliability of their cars. The Toledo itself does not qualify for the survey, but SEAT fought one of his cars to get 100 cars in the list of top. But this is a little strange, because a car like the Toledo is more or less the Volkswagen Polo in different clothes - similar to the SEAT Ibiza - that is, it will have a solid foundation for a long life, that few cars, especially since both the Polo and Ibiza have little problems with their engines or anything else had.
and naturally they secured the maximum score of five stars in Euro NCAP crash safety tests, with anti-lock braking system (ABS), Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and a plurality of airbags, including front, side , headers and additional chest airbags all as standard. Some higher spec models also get fog lights intersections help illuminate and make pulling in a lot of traffic that a little easier, too.

price, price-performance ratio and options

of Toledo great value of space is upset given
Like its running costs, the Toledo is not bad value for money, but it is not barrier goes or the market to redefine. You have not much get for your money on the entry-level S model, so you're likely to shell out an extra few thousand pounds to obtain the kind of Toledo, you will actually be happy to use every day.
But it provides enough room to feel even more worthwhile, and while resale value on the used car market are still somewhat unproven, you should be able to find a few good second-hand deals, even if it not the price does not hold as well as some of its main competitors.
