The SEAT Altea XL is a car that is much more focused on the driver than the majority of people carriers currently on the market. This is emphasized even more if you take the option of 17-inch wheels, which is recommended.
If you go into a SEAT garage then your first impression maybe that they are selling the same car with three different names. There is the Altea, Altea XL and Toledo. Apart from the doors on the rear of the car they all look pretty much identical, so what marks them out as being different?
The Altea XL has the largest boot in the range and also features a sliding rear seat, similar to the standard Altea. The most noticeable difference is that it only has five seats instead of seven. The idea, according to SEAT?s bosses, is that it is designed for people who don?t need more than five seats but what to have the large boot space.
Driving the SEAT Altea XL you notice that the car has a firm suspension and dampers, for those of you who are not interested in the technical terms this means that it handles corners beautifully and can change directions very quickly. This makes it a great car to drive even though the ride can be a little firm sometimes.
Because the car is strictly only for five people this means that the aim of the car was to improve its practicality, which explains why there is a lot more movement in the rear seat when you slide it and the extra space in the boot.
Other improvements are that the driving position is excellent and the sporty dash that wraps around you makes you feel like you are in more of a sports car than an MPV.
SEAT have also given a generous amount of ready-fitted equipment into the car as standard which you may not get with other models. This includes parking sensors, climate control, rain-sensing windscreen wipers and electric windows. You can get the most basic model without these but it only comes in a 1.6 litre version. The 1.9 TDI version delivers a surprisingly 33.1mpg.
Overall this is a car that, as long as you do not need to seat more than five people, delivers the space and practicality that you want from an MPV while giving the driver the feeling of being in a more sporty vehicle.
