SEAT Exeo gets a fresh new look

SEAT has launched new-look versions of the Exeo saloon and ST estate.

Distinguished by LED equipped headlights, plus revised bumpers front and rear the two cars get more practical, comfortable interiors.

The new look Exeo made its debut at the Paris Motor Show, and is the first SEAT to be fitted with a new, continuously-variable automatic gearbox.

A revised 2.0-litre TDI diesel engine is also available, and when paired with the automatic gearbox offers combined fuel consumption of 48.7mpg.

The transmission has both manual and fully automatic modes, and can be controlled by steering wheel shift-paddles.

Meanwhile, thinner seatbacks help create an extra 44mm of legroom for rear-seat passengers.

Prices will be announced when the car goes on sale in the UK, early in 2011.
