Seat Tribu

Seat is going to unveil the concept of a 4WD 2-door crossover Tribu in Frankfurt. The car is planned to compete with VW Tiguan and Mercedes GLK.

The company hasn’t released any official data yet.

Seat Tribu is likely to be equipped with 150-hp diesel with Common-Rail system. Full-time 4WD, a number of dynamics controlling systems and a disputable exterior design might evoke animated talk at the motor show, which can become a real successful PR-action.

All we can do at the moment is wait for official data or the start of the show where we can have a look at the cat with our own eyes.
