The new seat Ibiza review
Seat Ibiza is a premium hatchback that ever since its introduction has set new standards in the segment. This car has received massive response from the buyers and users and has unleashed a whole new style and trend in its segment.
The 103bhp 1.2 TSI is responsive and fits the needs of most Ibiza buyers perfectly, however the 85bhp 1.4 is our pick because it offers the best balance of performance and affordability. Should you choose enough miles to warrant the extra cost of a diesel model, the 1.2 TDI has got the best balance of performance and value - whether or not the 1.6 and a pair of.0 units give stronger performance.
The Seat Ibiza shuts out road noise well; however the wind noise will attempt your patience. The smaller engines can sound strained when you’re doing 70mph, too. Some of the diesels really are a bit on the clattery side, but nearly all of them are hushed when you settle at a constant speed.
The Ibiza's suspension is quiet and supple, and the body is well controlled. Its handling is not as sporty like a Ford Fiesta’s, and the steering is a little lacking feel, but the car continues to be grippy and predictable. It rides well more often than not, too, but there is some patter over bumps. FR models are supposed to be sportier, but they’re not as exciting to drive as we want.
On the concluding note, we can say this is an amazing car with several new features stuffed in it. Apart from that, the new model has got several refinements over its predecessors. If you are interested in this car, you can buy it here with Bartletts Seat.
