Black is the distinctive new line-up for SEAT
SEAT have opened their new Black Edition order book. The new trim level is the latest model update from the Spanish car maker, which add new interior and exterior design features to create a more distinctive look. The Black Editions will be available on the FR variants of the Ibiza, Arona, Leon, and Ateca.
First announced back in November 2024, SEAT announced the new look to its line up with the introduction of additions that include alloy wheels, a black roof spoiler, side skirts, and keyless entry.
The Arona FR Black Edition comes with black side skirts and roof rails to complement the tone, as well as exclusive 18-inch alloy wheels painted in black. Subtle additions such as the “Black Edition” identification embossed into the B-pillar references what SEAT describe as the urban-SUV’s status. Inside there are bucket seats, keyless entry and go, adaptive cruise control, park assist, and a rear-view camera. In addition, dark aluminium matt colouring is used in the dashboard, console, and door mouldings. The Arona is available from £28,805.
SEAT’s bestselling Ibiza, in Black Edition form, includes 18” black alloy wheels, black roof spoiler and side skirts along with keyless entry, panoramic sunroof, sports bucket seats and for the first time ever on the SEAT Ibiza, heated seats. The Ibiza is available from £24,935.
The Leon FR joins the Black Edition line-up with black alloys (of course!), roof spoiler, and side skirts plus black mirror housings, a panoramic roof, and keyless entry. The Leon is available from £33,150.
SEAT’s Ateca FR Black Edition is the largest Black Edition model to be introduced. With its new 19” black alloys, electric tailgate, and top-view camera, the Ateca Black Edition is available from £36,890 OTR.
Black Edition models are common with a number of manufacturers, including others within the VW stable. While not to everyone’s taste they certainly add a dash of style to the various models in SEAT’s stable, from the more diminutive Arona and Ibiza, through the Leon and on to the larger Ateca.
