SEAT recently presented the new Ibiza ST (Sport Tourer) that will make its first public appearance at the Geneva Motor Show in March. The compact estate car will go on sale in early summer, according to SEAT.

Overall, the car has a length of 4.23 meters, which means it is 18 centimeters longer than the standard Ibiza. The trunk has a capacity of 430 liters, but can be increased by folding the split rear seat.

There will be six engines available across the range, three petrol and three TDI units with common-rail injection. Four of the six engines operate with direct injection and turbocharging. According to official figures, the engines outputs are ranging in between 70 and 105 horsepower.

There will be three trim levels available across the range, Reference, Style and Sport, with SEAT to offer several options, including a dual-clutch transmission.

"The interior of the Ibiza ST is impressively spacious, with an accomplished and high quality character. The designers and engineers paid close attention to the tiniest detail; every single element is functional, practical to use and meticulously crafted, as evidenced by the high material quality and tight tolerances. The cockpit feels taut. Circular air vents, a short gear stick – the emotional character expressed by the design of the Ibiza ST is clearly evident in the interior, too," SEAT said in a press statement when talking about the interior of the future model.

Pricing and release dates are yet to be revealed, but more information will be provided soon, closer to the official launch at the Geneva show.
