Indications about the technical data

Vehicle identification data

The technical parameters and figures stated in the technical data documentation may vary depending on individual vehicle trim levels, optional equipment packages, special engine versions, or specific market configurations tailored to different export countries.

The official registration documents and technical specification papers issued with your specific vehicle always take legal precedence over general handbook figures.

Abbreviations used in the Technical Specifications section

Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)

The unique 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) for your Seat Leon can be located in the following areas:

• Within the infotainment system touchscreen menu by navigating via function button Vehicle > Status > Service.
• Stamping visible from the outside through the lower driver's side corner of the front windscreen glass.
• Printed on the factory vehicle data label located in the luggage compartment or owner literature.
• Engraved directly onto the right-hand structural body panel inside the engine compartment.

Type plate

The official factory type plate is affixed to the lower right-hand door frame pillar. Note that vehicles produced for specific export markets may not feature a standard B-pillar type plate depending on local regulations.

Performance

All published top speed and acceleration figures apply exclusively under ideal road, wind, and atmospheric testing conditions.

Vehicle performance metrics are calculated based on standard factory configurations, excluding optional accessories, roof racks, or aftermarket add-ons that increase aerodynamic drag or curb weight.

Fuel consumption

Officially approved fuel consumption values and emission figures are derived from standardized laboratory testing conducted or supervised by certified European Union testing agencies, in strict accordance with the EU legislation in force at the time of vehicle certification (for additional legal details, consult the Publications Office of the European Union on the official EUR-Lex portal: © European Union, http://eur-lex.europa.eu/).

The official fuel consumption and specific CO2 emission values for your vehicle are recorded in the Certificate of Conformity and purchasing documentation handed over upon delivery.

Real-world fuel economy and CO2 emission rates vary for every individual vehicle based on fitted optional equipment, driving style, road topography, traffic density, weather conditions, payload weight, and the number of passengers onboard.

Tank level

a) The actual volume filled at commercial fuel pumps may be slightly lower than the total nominal tank capacity due to automatic shut-off nozzles. Under extreme freezing temperatures, achievable fill volume may also decrease slightly. Exact capacities depend on model equipment level.

High-voltage battery

Weights

Stated kerb weight figures apply to a road-ready vehicle equipped with a standard 75 kg driver allowance, 90% fluid fill levels, vehicle tools, and the spare wheel (where fitted). Installing optional factory equipment or retrofitting accessories increases the unladen kerb weight, which proportionally reduces the maximum permissible payload capacity of your Seat Leon.

Load on the roof

The maximum permissible roof load for the standard Seat Leon hatchback is 50 kg, while the Seat Leon Sportstourer estate allows a maximum roof load of 75 kg (including the weight of the roof carrier system).

Trailer weight

The maximum allowable vertical nose weight (drawbar load) exerted on the ball head of the factory towing bracket is 80 kg.

WARNING Never exceed the maximum specified gross vehicle weight, axle load limits, or roof load ratings. Overloading the vehicle creates a severe risk of structural damage, mechanical failure, severe accidents, and loss of control!
