Not a fan of this writing font and that simple 4 thrown in there.

Same as the new Leon. Expect it on all new SEATs going forward.

The rear isn't a lot different and I like the front end.

I see Autogefuhl has one of their forensic gold standard reviews, a 27 minute review of the facelift Ateca calling it the 2021... Think that's in keeping with the model naming convention of next model being the year after release. 2017 being the 2016 launch model etc . Good at pointing out the changes between the old and the new. Front assist no longer under the badge but dropped further down on the bumper. 230 / 240 volt in the boot plus 12 volt ~ not sure whether that is on all models. The usb c we know about, front and back. Bit more about the "heated" front windscreen, safety features and the infotainment menu-ing. Improved safety features. Tactile build quality of the materiel. The range etc.

& ofcourse on the Seat.co.uk site & here.

Note that says on the bottom "Please note some images may not be to UK specification". The same images as the German Seat site.

The next step for anyone interested in getting one will be what's in the UK spec and prices. Where the fun begins of what is in, what is out of each model.

& we will be here to discuss.

A peaky boo can be made of the new Leon infotainment controls to give a flavour of what might becoming to the Ateca 2020, thanks SeatCupra.net .

Will interesting to know whether Seat connect is free, Mapcare etc and so forth. Noticed not a lot of success with voice commands, don't bother myself on the high. Alexa via the Seat app gave me random stuff... if a lone driver I can see Alexa might entertain you as company or annoy. Will be interesting to see how good Seat apps are... there were none on that model being tested. The app development had traditionally been in-house in Spain.

Where are the buttons .

(& will have to watch this one with Poinspector in case this is deemed a new model with a new ID or whether it passes off as the same as VW and Skoda connect units, has to be tested out by someone with the car, Seat Spanish board use their public domain files produced by Poinspector so there will be an early warning and moans on their site like there was with the standard WiFi unit till that was fixed... reckon someone examined the firmware to find the units ID code then that appeared in commercial files and migrated)

Hi guys, exciting times as I think we are getting ever closer to the release of the new ateca. Here is a link which has a download button for the new ateca brochure. https://www.seat.com/carworlds/new-ateca/overview.html

I see traffic sign recognition is back in again as an option although can be enabled ($) by VCDS if Lane Assist is listed. Reckon Navigation Plus is out... there is + and Plus... + isn't navigation Plus. The sub woofer has come back but this time with the out board amp so it appears as an option. So some of the treats are being put back in to the product range by Seat UK. If you want the icing on the cake reckon that's in the Ateca Cupra which probably has the thick marzipan with the Navigation Plus and plenty of cherries . That's in the box marked luxury.

Brings back those exciting memories of the launch in 2016.

The next check is to tally the brochure with the price list and the configurator.

($) but not on Seat 2020 models as VAG have tightened up access to VCDS that's a watch the space one (SFD implementation). Editted it into the top of the Obdeleven resource. Situation may change. Probably work on the basis that any 2020 new models are as is, at the present. Prior models fine where VCDS tools can be used to make mods.
