Seat is poised to unveil a new zero emissions concept car at the Paris Motor Show.
The first version of the Seat IBE was presented in Geneva this year and the model has since been refined and developed further.
The super-compact sports coupe is aimed at urban motorists and offers 102 PS and a spacious, versatile interior.
With "unmistakable character" and a range of around 130km, the Seat IBE is modelled on classic car proportions and can accelerate from zero to 62mph in less than ten seconds.
Seat head of design Luc Donckerwolke said the model is "a car of the future".
"The IBE is a concentrated version of our design DNA. Both exterior and interior are characterised by their focus on key elements, by a clear and precise architecture, modern technology and materials that are as high-quality as they are ecological," Mr Donckerwolke stated.
The Seat exhibition at the Paris Motor Show will be located at Stand A 130 in Hall 4.
It runs until October 17th at Porte de Versailles in Paris.
