SEAT Tarraco

[5] The name of the vehicle is intended to commemorate Tarraco, the former capital of the Roman province of Hispania Tarraconensis.

[7] After a preliminary examination based on linguistic and legal criteria, SEAT chose nine options, Abrera, Alborán, Arán, Aranda, Ávila, Donosti, Tarifa, Tarraco and Teide – among which Alborán, Aranda, Ávila and Tarraco were qualified for a final vote.

The Tarraco opens a new design language in SEAT, highlighting the front with a large front grille and new optics, and the return to an aesthetic bet already used by Giugiaro for SEAT at the beginning of the 90s; the unification of the rear lights telephone type, being influenced to the rest of the models of the brand from here on.

A 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel is offered in 150 PS (110 kW; 148 hp) or 190 PS (140 kW; 187 hp) versions; the first can be specified with a manual transmission and front-wheel drive or a dual-clutch automatic with four-wheel drive, with the more powerful engine limited to the automatic/four-wheel-drive combination.
