The New SEAT Ibiza price drop

• Prices confirmed for new SEAT Ibiza
• Most new versions priced lower than outgoing models
• Ibiza ST estate to get a sporty FR version for the first time
Price and specification details for the new SEAT Ibiza have been confirmed, with reduced prices on the majority of models.
The entry level 1.2-litre 60PS E is available from £9,995 on the road, in SC (three-door) spec. Five-door models start at £11,430 with the 1.2-litre 70PS S A/C – £300 less than the outgoing model.
For the first time, the practical ST estate body-style is now available in sporty FR trim, meaning those with families needn’t have to make do with a more basic model.
As with the previous Ibiza, the five-door body style commands a £500 premium over the three-door SC. Opt for an ST estate model and that rises to £750.
Trim levels will be familiar to current Seat owners, ranging from basic E spec. through mid-level S A/C and SE (which replaces the Copa trim level) to the sporty FR model. Most are available for around £300 less than the outgoing equivalent, with FR models up to £1,100 less expensive, depending on which engine you choose.
As previously reported, the styling has been tweaked to represent SEAT’s current design theme, and the interior benefits from a redesigned steering wheel, a new climate control console and a larger glove box.
The new Seat Ibiza will be in UK showrooms next month.
