Summary
The new Seat Ibiza has grown both in terms of size and maturity. We really like the styling. The Ibiza looks more like a mini Leon than ever before. The Xcellence model offers a premium cabin full of leather and alcantara, along with a host of creature comforts to make life more enjoyable behind the wheel. The 1.0 TSI is reasonably competent, but there is the option for a 115PS version if you want even more refinement.
