• SEAT Leon e-HYBRID scoops 'Best Small Plug-in Hybrid Car' trophy
•First Leon plug-in hybrid electric impresses with EV range and low CO2 emissions
•£30,970 starting price ensures Leon e-HYBRID is competitively priced in class
The SEAT Leon e-HYBRID has been named Best Small Plug-in Hybrid Car at the 2021 Driving Electric Awards.
Launched in late-Autumn, the Leon e-HYBRID has already established itself as a leader of its class, combining drive appeal with practicality and impressive financial figures.
With a 40-mile EV range and CO2 emissions as low as 27g/km, the Leon e-HYBRID is rated at 6 per cent Benefit in Kind, making it an attractive option for company car drivers.
A starting price of £30,970 with FR trim as standard gives drivers a selection of drive modes and sports suspension, as well as a variety of pleasantries such as wireless phone charging and heated door mirrors for a competitive price.
Richard Ingram, Editor at Driving Electric, said: 'Competition in the plug-in hybrid market has intensified this year, with many new models joining the fray. The SEAT Leon has long given its rivals a hard time, and that's still the case now it's offered as a PHEV. A 6 per cent company-car tax rating, plus the availability of a practical ST estate, great in-car technology and a satisfying driving experience, combine to make this a real company-car star – and worth considering for private buyers, too.'
Richard Harrison, SEAT UK Managing Director, said: 'There are many reasons why the Leon has been our best-seller in recent years, and the latest generation model builds on these qualities, introducing emission-free electric driving for the city, as well as a fun and dynamic drive on the open road.'
