The SEAT León (IPA: [le̞ˈon]) is a small family car built by the Spanish car manufacturer SEAT since 1999. It uses the Volkswagen A platform and shares other components with the Volkswagen Golf, Audi A3 and Škoda Octavia.

One area in which the SEAT León has received positive reviews is the value the car offers when compared against both its sister models, the similarly sized Volkswagen Golf and Audi A3, and rival cars like the Ford Focus, Honda Civic and Vauxhall Astra. UK Prices for the León begin at £11495 for the 1.6 Essence model, with a spec that includes a CD player and electric front windows. For the same kit count and power of engine on a Ford Focus, the cost would be a significant £1500 more.

The Essence variant is no longer available, but began the range and was only available only in the UK, and features a CD player, electric front windows and remote central locking. The Essence was only available with the entry-level 1.6 litre engine. Next comes the Reference, now the entry level model in the UK, which for an additional cost of £700 adds air conditioning. Reference models are available with a 1.6 petrol or 1.9 TDI engine. Stylance adds two-zone climate control, rear electric windows, fog lights, 16" alloy wheels and the option of leather for a further £1000 price premium and is available with the 1.6 or 2 litre petrol or 1.9/2.0 TDI engines. Reference Sport adds different 16" alloys as well as heavily bolstered sports seats, in conjunction with the 2.0 FSI and 2.0 TDI engines. Sport trim has been phased out for the 2007 model year but all the features found here are on the new Stylance Sport Pack, including red sports seats and larger 17" alloy wheels.
