Seat Toledo is classified as a small family car, measuring between 4321 mm (170.12 in.) and 4482 mm (176.46 in.) in length, 1662 mm (65.43 in.) and 1768 mm (69.61 in.) in width, and 1424 mm (56.06 in.) and 1568 mm (61.73 in.) in height. Boot space, however, is impressively big for the size of the vehicle, according to owners.
While speed was not the focus the Seat Toledo was developed with, the model is not too slow either. 1.9 TDI variants are offered with a few output options – 90 Hp, 105 Hp, 110 Hp, and 150 Hp; they accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in between 8.9 and 13 seconds and reach a top speed of between 180 and 215 km/h.
Seat Toledo is generally quite good on consumption, especially diesel engined variants. Their fuel economy varies between 3.4 l/100 km (69.18 mpg) and 6.2 l/100 km (37.94 mpg), while that of petrol variants is between 5.1 l/100 km (46.12 mpg) and 8.9 l/100 km (26.43 mpg). For both diesel and petrol options, those equipped with start/stop systems are the most efficient.
Seat Toledo did not achieve much success in terms of sales, which was the reason for its discontinuation in 2018.
Seat Toledo is a nice and reliable family car. Despite being by no means exciting, it’s efficient, practical, and cheap to run and maintain. There are, however, some common issues reported by owners. They include, depending on the variant, seat belts not locking into place when necessary, disengagement of the child lock, loss of power, and decreased brake effectiveness.
