Pricing and specs confirmed for Seat Tarraco
Pricing and specifications for the all-new Seat Tarraco have been confirmed, with order books now open.
The Tarraco is a new model for the firm, becoming its flagship SUV — sitting above the Ateca and Arona in its range of large cars.
Entry-level SE models start at £28,320, and boast metallic paint, DAB radio, 17-inch alloy wheels and three-zone climate control as standard equipment. Building on that is SE Technology, which adds satellite navigation, rear privacy glass and 18-inch alloys — with a price of £29,330.
Next in the range is the £30,410 Xcellence trim, adding wireless phone charging, adaptive cruise control, a reversing camera, an electric tailgate, 19-inch alloy wheels and Alcantara upholstery. Topping the range is Xcellence Lux, which brings a top-view camera, 20-inch alloy wheels, leather upholstery and a winter pack — including heated front seats — to the SUV. Prices for this grade start at £32,135.
Two petrol engines will be available at launch for the Seat Tarraco. First up is a 1.5-litre unit, developing 148bhp which is sent to the front wheels via a six-speed manual gearbox. The second is a 2.0-litre, 187bhp option paired up to a seven-speed DSG gearbox and all-wheel drive. There’s also a duo of 2.0-litre diesel engines, which are also available in 148bhp and 187bhp outputs and can be had in both drivetrain configurations found on petrol alternatives.

Finally, Xcellence First Edition Plus adds a Beats audio system and electric driver’s seat to the range-topping trim. In 187bhp petrol guise, it’s priced at £38,020, while 187bhp diesel variants cost £39,505. No word yet on delivery dates.
