The initial version of the SEAT Toledo (Typ 1L) was launched as a five-door liftback sedan, and its sales career lasted from 1991 to 1999. This generation of the Toledo was the first SEAT automobile developed entirely under Volkswagen Group ownership, and it was built on the Golf Mk2 Volkswagen Group A2 platform with a 550 litre boot expandable to 1360 litres when folding rear seats, superior in shape and size to the Volkswagen Jetta/Vento's combined with the advantage of a tailgate.[1][2][3] As saloon versions of small family cars were rare in Europe, it was sometimes considered a large family car due to its overall length and boot size, despite having smaller rear leg room, and pricing closer to small family cars.
The Toledo initially featured underpowered engines compared to the Ibiza and Málaga's 'System Porsche' units, such as a base 1.6 L 75 PS (55 kW; 74 bhp) petrol engine, and a GT version using the 2.0 L 115 PS (85 kW; 113 bhp) engine. Later, the Toledo would see the addition of more powerful versions, including a 150 PS (110 kW; 148 bhp) 2.0 GTI 16v, and 110 PS (81 kW; 108 bhp) 1.9 TDI which, like many diesel engines built since 1996 by the Volkswagen Group, it is advertised as capable of running on either mineral diesel or biodiesel.
This model later received a mild facelift in 1996, and was first launched in the United Kingdom in October 1991, some few months after its launch in Europe. Sales were not strong however, and this suffered on all the generations of the Toledo.

a rebadged SEAT Toledo Mk1
Rebadges
This generation of the Toledo is now built by Chinese car manufacturer Chery, and sold under the names Chery A11, Chery Windcloud and Chery A15, Chery A168, Chery Amulet, Chery Cowin, Chery Qiyun, Chery Flagcloud. Chery acquired the chassis of the 1993 Toledo from a Mexican dealership after authorisation from SEAT. Chery Cowin, which is based on SEAT Toledo, already has an authorisation to market it in Europe along with Russia and South America.[4]
Apart from the Chery rebadged models, the first generation Toledo is also currently built by the Russian car maker TagAZ rebranded as the Vortex Corda.[5]

The second generation Toledo (Typ 1M) was introduced in 1998 and made its début at the 1998 Paris Motor Show as a four-door notchback sedan.
It was more rounded than the previous first generation shape and had a much more fluid design, although both were products of Giorgetto Giugiaro's Italdesign studio with the latest generation being influenced by SEAT's chief of exterior design Steve Lewis.[7]

shared with the SEAT León Mk1
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f3/SEAT_Leon_Mk1_rear_seats.jpg/200px-SEAT_Leon_Mk1_rear_seats.jpg)
It shared components with both its Volkswagen and Škoda PQ34 platform-mates - the Volkswagen Bora and the Škoda Octavia - yet is the sportiest of the three. In the interior, the dashboard was derived from that of the first-generation Audi A3.[8]
It was built on the Volkswagen Golf Mk4 platform, which meant stiff springs to support the load of the large 500 litre boot increased to 830 litres when folding rear seats.[9][10][11] The early models were built at the Volkswagen/Audi plant in Belgium, with improved build quality (compared to the Spanish-built previous generation), although the Toledo was still presented as an economic alternative to the lower level of the D segment, and included in the basic price a high level of equipment. One of the features most associated with the Spanish model, the tailgate was removed in favour of a more traditional saloon boot opening. The following year, the Toledo would be used as the base for a proper hatchback, the SEAT León Mk1.
Base model was now a crossflow 1.6 litre 100 PS (74 kW; 99 bhp) petrol engine, followed by a 1.8 litre 20-valve 125 PS (92 kW; 123 bhp) unit, while the top of the line was represented by the 2.3 litre 150 PS (110 kW; 148 bhp) VR5 engine (V5). Diesel engined versions used the 1.9 Turbocharged Direct Injection (TDI) engine, with a variable geometry turbocharger, offered initially with power outputs of 90 PS (66 kW; 89 bhp) or 110 PS (81 kW; 108 bhp). In 2001, the V5 engine was uprated with a 20v head (four valves per cylinder), boosting power to 170 PS (125 kW; 168 bhp). Later in the series, the 1.8 litre 20-valve Toledo received a turbocharger, capable of delivering 180 PS (132 kW; 178 bhp), and a later evolution of the VW TDI engine, produced engines of 130 PS (96 kW; 128 bhp) and 150 PS (110 kW; 148 bhp). These three versions all featured a six-speed manual transmission. The 130 PS TDI also featured white dials instead of the standard black dials on the 110 and 150 PS TDI models.

In 2003 SEAT Sport introduced the SEAT Toledo Cupra Mk2 in the European Touring Car Championship (ETCC) with drivers Jordi Gené, Frank Diefenbacher and former British Touring Car Championship winner Rickard Rydell, while the 'SEAT Sport Italia' 's Toledo Cupra Mk2 with Gianni Morbidelli also participated as an additional team. As in 2005 the ETCC became the World Touring Car Championship (WTCC), the SEAT Toledo Cupra Mk2 competed in the WTCC from 2005 to 2006. Peter Terting replaced the German Diefenbacher, while Jason Plato also joined the team for four rounds and Marc Carol for one round.
Between 2004 and 2006 SEAT Sport also ran in the British Touring Car Championship with two SEAT Toledo Cupras Mk2 identical to those used in the European Touring Car Championship under the 'SEAT Sport UK' banner. Initially the SEAT Sport UK cars were campaigned[clarification needed] by RML Group although at the end of the year the partnership was dissolved as RML entered the WTCC and the team was run by Northern South since 2005. At the wheel were Jason Plato, Rob Huff, James Pickford and Luke Hines. However there were also independent teams running with SEAT Toledo Cupras Mk2 till the 2009 British Touring Car Championship season, like the Motorbase Performance, the Team Air Cool/GR Asia, the BTC Racing and the Maxtreme teams.
In popular culture
The Toledo makes an appearance in the 2007 Singaporean film Just Follow Law, directed by Jack Neo. In this film, it is used by the character Tanya Chew (Fann Wong) and was involved in the collision during a chase in which Lim Teng Zui (Gurmit Singh) confronts her about cutting his bonus due to his incompetence and poor work ethics. It has the vehicle registration plate of SGC 1659U.

The third generation Toledo (Typ 5P) was introduced in 2004 and as a production car made its début at the 2004 Paris Motor Show, though a preview of it had already been revealed at the 2004 Madrid Motor Show with the presentation of the SEAT Toledo Prototipo.[13]
Its bodywork is completely different from the previous two generations: abandoning the traditional three-box saloon format, the Toledo Mk3 has a five-door hatchback sedan design penned by Walter de'Silva, although now closer to a compact MPV with the Altea's front section, a high roof, and a rear end inspired by the unsuccessful Renault Vel Satis, paying homage to the original Toledo's hatchback/saloon rear.
All pretense of a sporty identity was thrown out, in favour of a more upscale and alternative image. A large 500 litre DIN boot is an interesting feature, while it can be increased to 1440 litres after folding rear seats.[14][15] Under the bodywork, the SEAT Toledo uses the same underpinnings as the Volkswagen Golf Mk5. All engines are identical to other Volkswagen Group units, with petrol engines ranging from 102 PS (75 kW; 101 bhp) to 150 PS (110 kW; 148 bhp) and diesel engines from 105 PS (77 kW; 104 bhp) to 140 PS (103 kW; 138 bhp).
Updates include the arrival of a 170 PS (125 kW; 168 bhp) TDI engine in 2006, as well as a tiptronic gearbox in the 2.0 FSI model. A 1.8 L turbocharged version of this engine became available in mid-2007.
Engine specifications
The internal combustion engines used are the same as for many other cars in the Volkswagen Group, and are all inline four cylinder engines.

Reliability
Along with other SEATs, the Toledo has been a markedly reliable vehicle – more so than the Audi A3 and Volkswagen Golf, with which it shares platforms. In 2006, Warranty Direct, a UK-based provider of mechanical warranties for used cars, rated the Toledo with a higher reliability index compared to the Golf produced over the same period and the Audi A3.[16][17]

In 2009, SEAT released an Audi A4 (B7)-based large family car called the SEAT Exeo, with saloon and estate bodystyles. The Exeo was not intended as a direct replacement for the Toledo according to the company, although production of the Toledo was ended in 2009 due to low sales.[19]
A concept car based on the Toledo Mk4 production model was presented at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. This vehicle is closely related to the Škoda Rapid, both are based on an adaptation of the A05+(PQ25) platform and are assembled in the same Škoda factory in Mladá Boleslav.[20][21] The Toledo commenced sales in Spain and Portugal towards the end of 2012 and the rest of Europe and Mexico in early 2013,[22] with the new Toledo sitting between the Ibiza and Leon.
