Seat Leon FR: First with shift paddles

The new León FR 2.0 TFSI with DSG gearshift is now available across the SEAT sales network. This transmission set-up includes steering wheel mounted shift paddles for the first time on a SEAT model, adding a sporty feel to manual speed changes, as well as the comfort and safety of not having to release the steering wheel. Inspired by competition racing, it is the same system found on the SEAT León units that participate at the Supercopa. Both the 2.0 TFSI and the 2.0 TFSI DSG deliver excellent performance levels. The León FR DSG reaches a top speed of 229 km/h and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds. Average fuel consumption remains the same at 7.9 litres. {imggallery 310}
