2017 Seat Ibiza reader test team review

On the off chance that Seat could have picked the opposition for its new little hatchback, the Ibiza, it wouldn't have gone for a previous What Car? Auto of the Year and an auto that has perpetually been the UK's top of the line show since 2008.

However, go up against the Skoda Fabia and Ford Fiesta it should, and to do as such, it can't have common sense, driveability, inside quality, looks or, critically, estimating as its Achilles heel.

So Seat figures it has those regions secured, promising revived looks, more space for travelers, plusher materials, a tremendous boot and new infotainment. The Ibiza is all around valued, as well, costing inside only a couple of hundred pounds of the Fabia.

Having bunch tried the new Ibiza against the new Fiesta and the Fabia, we observed it to be the new ruling little hatchback, granting it our full-five star rating. However, will our perusers be correspondingly inspired? To discover, we welcomed a gathering to look at it at Seat's manufacturing plant in Martorell, Spain.
