SEAT’s first model, the “1400” came off the assembly line at the company’s base in Barcelona’s Zona Franca on 13th November 1953.

At that time the firm’s 900 workers managed a production rate of five cars per day. Today, by contrast, the company has a workforce of around 12,000, including the staff at the SEAT Technical Centre, and produces about 2,000 units daily at the Martorell plant. The 16 millionth model, a silver Leon Ecomotive equipped with a frugal 105 PS 1.9 TDI diesel engine, is destined to be sold on the Spanish market.
