Seat have expanded the Ateca range with the addition
of the new and sporty FR. Set to debut at the upcoming Barcelona Motor Show, the new FR joins the Reference, Style and XCellence specs,
while sitting on the same level as the latter.
The new Seat Ateca FR differentiates itself from the
XCellence spec thanks to the addition of special logos front and rear, a glossy
black grille, black roof rails and window frames, body-colored lower bumpers,
exclusive treatment for the LED fog lamps, a roof-mounted spoiler, and 19-inch
rims, wrapped in 245/40 tires.
Sports seats upholstered in Alcantara come as
standard inside, as do the aluminum pedals, red stitching and glossy black
inserts on the steering wheel, roof and door mouldings, and the FR logos.
Seat's new Ateca FR can be had with a new 2.0-liter
TSI engine that produces 190 PS, joining the already available petrol
and diesel lineup that ranges between 150 PS and 190 PS.
Depending on the selected flavor, a manual or a DSG automatic transmission
pushes the output to the front wheels or all four as an option.
Pricing and availability have yet to be announced.
