With the Toledo being absent for a few years, it was time for Seat to revive the nameplate with a good looking car wearing it.

SEAT introduced the third generation of the Toledo in 2004, and it was a significant change in the nameplate's history since it wasn't a sedan anymore.

The Toledo was built on top of the same platform as the Golf IV, the Bora (Jetta in the U.S.), and Skoda Octavia and tried to compete in the European compact-sedan segment.

Launched in 1991, the SEAT Toledo was a small family car built by the Spanish brand owned by Volkswagen Group.

At the beginning of the 90s, Volkswagen started to invest more in the Spanish brand, and the Toledo was the first vehicle built on a German platform by SEAT.
