After that in next generation, Seat decided to use Volkswagen Group platform to produce Ibiza in future generations. Also, in 2010 Seat released a performance version of the Ibiza which named ST.

The Fuel Consumption of the Seat Ibiza

Now, it’s time to talk about the fuel consumption of the Seat Ibiza. The New Ibiza has five standard engine option which are; 1.0, 1.0 TSI, 1.2 TSI, 1.4 TDI and 1.4 TSI. We are going to analyse two of these engines to make your decision easier about the engine type. We will use two main categories such as; The Most Economical One and The Most Powerful One. Let’s start with the most economical one which is 1.4 TDI Ecomotive. It is a three cylindered, 1422 cm3 sized, diesel type engine which produces 75 Horsepower and 3000 RPM Torque. 1.4 TDI has got a 4.1lt/100km (which refers to 69 MPG in UK) fuel consumption performance according to the official factory data in Urban usage. However, this MPG rate can decrease to 3.3lt/100km (which refers to 85 MPG in UK) at the Extra Urban usage such as; Highway and Long Distance Trip. When we combine these two data we get a 3.6lt/100km (which refers to 78 MPG in UK) average fuel consumption rate. Secondly, we are going to analyse the Most Powerful One which is 1.4 TSI FR. It is a four cylindered, 1395 cm3 sized, Petrol type engine which produces 150 Horsepower and 5000 RPM Torque. It is a special performance engine for FR brand which is a brand created for Seat performance vehicles. As usual for better performance you should sacrifice the fuel efficiency. This engine performs a 6.0lt/100km (which refers to 47 MPG in UK) MPG in Urban usage. But when we drive in Extra Urban this fuel consumption rate decreasing to 4.1lt/100km (which refers to 69 MPG in UK) according to the official factory data. When we combine these two data we can see that, 1.4 TSI FR has got a 4.8lt/100km (which refers to 59 MPG in UK) average fuel consumption.

To be conclude, I can say that with enough innovative technology and trendy design Seat Ibiza can attract your attention. If you have a low budget and looking for an economical vehicle you can check out some of the Diesel types of Ibiza. However, if you are looking for speed and excitement I advise you the FR version of Ibiza. I think Seat made an undeletable mark on supermini car industry with Ibiza brand.
