AVAILABLE IN SEPTEMBER.
Martorell, 22.06.2012 – Today SEAT shipped in Barcelona the first 270 units of the new Ibiza to be sold in China from September onwards. After the start of commercial activity in April with the SEAT Leon, the company is placing its bets on its best-selling model ever to continue growing in the Chinese market. The new Ibiza, available in Europe from this Spring, will be the second model to be sold in China; three versions will be available – 3-doors, 5-doors and the ST estate version. From 2013 onwards, the MPV Alhambra will be added to the SEAT range.
The ‘Cristal Ray’, carrying the cars shipped, is expected to reach the port of Tianjin in about 40 days, after stopping over at Guangzhou. The new Ibiza will also be distributed to the three new dealerships SEAT will be opening over the next few weeks in Guangzhou, Xi’an and Xiamen, thus adding to the eight already opened in April to coincide with the Beijing Motorshow.
SEAT’s expansion into China forms part of the internationalization strategy of the company, which already exports approximately 80% of its vehicles to 75 countries.
