I hope we're not going to still be getting standard indicator bulbs rather than LEDs in the rear lights, yes I could do it myself but I'm lazy/incompetent!

Leon 2016 facelift???
- Thread starter solbes
- Start date
So, it's safe to assume that models ordered this year will not be facelifted? I actually don't mind, as my only complain about the current version (noise in cabin) doesn't seem to be addressed.
. I can't justify the price or size of the I wait for both the new Ibiza, and Ibiza SUV. Would be nice if it would have a hybrid/electric drivetrain, as I need a small, eco city car.
BTW I found this pictures on AutoBILD (it's from a video, so Google Translate doesn't help):
This is lovely looking concept. Anyone knows if that was showed anywhere, or is it just a fan-made graphic?
When you say 'lovely', do you really mean, disgusting, ugly, poorly executed, clone of a Hyundai?
That could be good news for me then. I want to change my 3 year old 1.8Tsi FR manual for a 1.8 DSG but don't really want my new car until next spring. Perhaps now I will be able to get a 1.8 DSG if I order around Christmas.
Rumour was VW is planning a partial hybrid option for the Golf but the 48v kit is still too expensive for anything smaller/cheaper then the golf.
I'd be surprised if Seat got a hybrid before VW.
Of course it is, its made to satisfy EU Carbon reduction regulations.
Hence manufacturers making a certain percentage of cars that are hybrids reduces their overall quota across the cars they make, they don't really expect to sell any, which is why you don't ever see them on the roads.

I've visited local dealer yesterday. They told me this is the last week to order a non-facelifted version. Production of a new Leon starts November, the first cars will be available in January. Also, they said that the facelift is rather minor: Ateca-like headlights (turn signals merged with the daylights, not sure about shape) is the biggest change expected. Inside, there should be some new features in the infotainment systems, and that's all.
Sadly, Mrs. Lukin didn't really enjoyed the ride in the backseat of the ST (we're looking for a family car), and although it's definitely the best car for a driver (among the ones we've tested) it's not as good for the passengers as, for example, Mazda.
Too bad Exeo is no more. Though, after driving a Superb, it's maybe better off for Seat, as that chassis seems to have nothing in common with auto emocion. It's only das auto.

I've heard the same thing, but only related to the Cupra (didn't ask about other models), which will be Cupra 300 and facelift next year, with no new orders on Cupra's being taken currently.
Also was told the facelift is very minor.

Just seen this regarding the 2017 facelift. First time I've seen these pics. Doesn't look much different to me.

Very nice colour. What is it? Like you say it doesn't appear to look any different.

Well they're saying that it's the new cupra with 20" wheels but they look exactly the same as the standard wheels to me
