SEAT sales continued to go up in August. The effect of the WLTP procedure, which led to a sharp rise in registrations in Europe in August of 2018 and a decrease in the same month this year, did not hamper a new monthly record for SEAT. In August, company deliveries amounted to 42,100 cars, which is 2% more than in the same month the previous year (41,200) and 41.6% higher than the figure recorded in August 2017 (29,700).
SEAT’s 2019 year-to-date figure amounts to 411,600 vehicles delivered, 7.2% higher than last year (January-August 2018: 384,000). With this result, the carmaker broke the record posted in the same period in 2018.
CUPRA* sales also continued their upward trend and rose by 70.6% from January to August to a total of 17,100 vehicles. With just four months left until the end of the year, the new brand has already greatly exceeded its sales figure recorded for all of 2018 (14,400 units).
