Electrified seat: X-ray of a sustainable range

The year 2020 will be remembered in history. Curiously, when this new return to the Sun started, we believed that it would be for something very different. The automotive sector faced an almost impossible challenge: to reduce the emissions of its range to 95 grams of CO2 per kilometer . The fines were predicted to be billions of dollars and all manufacturers, European and non-European, were rushing to launch vehicles that offset those emissions. COVID-19 has changed everything, even the problems of the motor industry. Car factories have become production lines for medical supplies and firms have joined in the fight against the coronavirus , giving away vehicles or launching entertainment initiatives. Together we will overcome this virus and we will take to the streets again, a moment of reflection and consideration. Is it possible to keep the clean air that the quarantine has left us? Seat will contribute its grain of sand with a range full of alternatives, from the urban Mii electric to the new Seat León plug-in hybrid.

In this extreme situation for the human being, the planet breathes. The canals of Venice have transparent water and pollution has dropped to levels unimaginable a few weeks ago. There is no longer any possible excuse, this virus has betrayed us and the climate emergency has a clear responsibility. Our economic model is unstoppable and we all hope to recover our daily rhythm when the COVID-19 crisis ends, but we can ask ourselves the following question: Can our decisions be different? Seat has shown that electric vehicles can be manufactured at reasonable prices , the Seat Mii is one example. Its starting price is 18,490 euros , which can be reduced with launch offers or post-coronavirus promotions.

The new Seat León offers up to five propulsion combinations: gasoline, diesel, compressed natural gas, light hybridization and plug-in hybrid . The decision will depend on many aspects and the prices of the Leon 2020 are not yet available. The Seat Tarraco will also feature a plug-in hybrid variant and the Arona and Ibiza models can be purchased with the TGI bi-fuel system . The options are varied and, in this article, we will tell you how the electrified systems of the Spanish firm work.
