Seat is a step away from reaching the highest sales volume in its 68-year history. With just one month left before closing 2018, the brand's global deliveries rose by 13% compared to the result obtained from January to November, amounting to 492,300 cars worldwide (2017: 435,500).

With this volume, Seat has already bettered its sales figure of all of last year, which closed with 468,400 vehicle deliveries. This is the best historic result for a January to November period, and exceeds the figure posted in 2000 (473,200). The carmaker's sales accelerated again in November, rising by 7.2% (total: 43,300 cars sold) compared to the result obtained in the same month of 2017 (40,400).

Seat Vice President for Sales and Marketing Wayne Griffiths said, "Exceeding the 2017 sales volume when there is still one month left before closing the year is a very positive result. We are on the brink of ending an exceptional 2018 and achieving the best sales result in the history of Seat. In addition, with more than 90% of the engine range now available, the situation resulting from the application of WLTP is returning to normal."
