Editor's Take

Der Seat Leon präsentiert sich als die sportlicher gestaltete Alternative zum VW Golf und richtet sich an Technik-Begeisterte sowie junge Familien. Während die ersten Baujahre dieser Generation häufig Kritik für ihr träges Infotainment und unbeleuchtete Touch-Slider einstecken mussten, bietet das jüngste Update ein deutlich ausgereifteres Bedienerlebnis. Mit seiner direkten Lenkung und den effizienten Antrieben ist der Spanier im Alltag ein vielseitiger und dynamischer Begleiter.

Stärken

  • Hohe elektrische Reichweite beim aktuellen e-Hybrid
Schwächen
  • Fehleranfälliges Infotainment bei Modellen vor dem Facelift
  • Unbeleuchtete Touch-Slider in älteren Baujahren
  • DSG-Getriebe anfällig bei mangelnder Wartung

Hi, I'm Michael. I built Carculated because I was looking for an independent calculator that honestly compares total costs incl. opportunity costs – and couldn't find one. So I had to build it myself in Excel. Now this tool is available for you too.
