HISTORY历史
Launched in May 2004, the Altea was the first SEAT to adopt the styling cues of the Salsa show car.发起于2004年5月,是第一座altea采用了萨尔萨舞曲表演车造型线索. Although the Toledo and the Leon would soon follow suit, it took the public some time to get to grips with the new direction and sales were initially rather slow.虽然利昂和托莱多很快仿效,花一些时间公众掌握新的方向,最初的销售相当缓慢. Before too long, however, a favourable press and some aggressive pricing pushed the Altea into the limelight and it?s now one of the Spanish company?s most popular lines.不久,但是记者和一些有利的侵略性定价推入altea风光?现在的西班牙公司之一.最受欢迎的线路. At launch, there were four engines, a pair of petrols in 1.6 and 2.0-litre capacities and two turbodiesels.在发射时有4个引擎,一双在1.6和2.0出勤公升容量和两个turbodiesels. Buyers got to choose either the rather old fashioned 1.9-litre unit or the rather more modern 2.0-litre.买方必须选择比较老土1.9公升单位或较为现代2.0升.
WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫 
First shown at the 2003 Frankfurt Motor Show, the reaction to the Altea was so positive that SEAT?s paymasters, the Audi Brand Group (Audi, SEAT and Lamborghini), threw everything into turning the car into a production reality.首先表现在2003年法兰克福汽车展,反应积极,向所在地altea这样?收盘的雇主,奥迪的品牌集团(奥迪、兰博基尼和座位),尔后一切变成生产轿车成为现实. Just five months after its debut under the tungsten lights, it was ready to roll into dealerships.仅5个月后首度在钨灯,它正准备驶入打击. It?s a significant precursor of what?s to come from SEAT.?收盘大幅先导什么?收盘来自席位. The huge radiator grille with prominent ?S?巨大散热器格栅突出?收盘? logo, the almond-shaped headlamps and the ?dynamic line?标志,杏仁形大灯及?动态线? that runs from the front wheel arch over the doors to the rear wheel are all styling traits that SEAT?s design director, Steve Lewis, proposes to incorporate into all the marque?s forthcoming models.前轮拱,行走在门后面的座位,车轮都造型特点?收盘设计总监史蒂夫刘易斯拟纳入各劳斯莱斯?收盘预定型号.
The Altea unashamedly offers five spacious seats rather than seven cramped ones but weighs in with some innovative thinking.宽敞的5个座位提供altea彻头彻尾而非重达七局促但在一些创新的思维. The side profile has the same 33:66 glass to metal ratio that features on so many sports cars and gives the Altea a far higher waisted and more dynamic look than, say, a Volkswagen Touran.站在同一剖面已33:66金属玻璃比对那么多的特点,并赋予体育汽车altea远远高于腰多看多动、例如,一个福士途. Inside, there are more than thirty places to stow and stash goodies, including a supersized glove compartment, big storage bins on all four doors, drawers under the front seat and even a storage area under the boot floor.境内有30多地方存放以及Stash过年,包括一个超大型手套舱、所有四个大箱储藏门前座下的抽屉,甚至行李箱地板下存放区. Even the parcel shelf has a storage cubby incorporated within.甚至有一个包裹货架仓库cubby纳入.
The two-tiered boot has a capacity of over 400 litres.<双层靴具有容量超过400公升. The rear bench is a 60/40 split affair with a fold down armrest incorporating cupholders.60/40分裂后座合议庭是事倍以下将cupholders扶手. As befits SEAT?s position within the sportier Audi side of Volkswagen?s empire, the seats are supportive and the steering is meaty, the multi-adjustable wheel making it easy to find a decent driving position.由于适合席位?收盘位置在一侧福士sportier奥迪?收盘帝国中国科学院支持与督导,是肉、多可调车轮就很容易找到一个象样的主动地位. The trim and build quality, whilst maybe not the most exciting in terms of colour choices and materials, is nevertheless of a relentlessly high quality.浪质量建设,虽然也许不是最令人兴奋的颜色选择、材料、然而一个无情的高质量. The Altea?s greatest party trick is definitely the windscreen wipers - spot them if you can.altea的?收盘伎俩绝对是最大党雨刮现场他们如果你能. Clue: they?re hidden in the A-pillars.线索:他们?重新隐藏在一支柱.
WHAT YOU PAY 您付出
You should be able to pick up low mileage 1.6 and 19-litre TDi Reference models for less than £10,800 with the plusher Stylance versions tacking another £800 onto these values.你应该可以拿起低里程1.6和19公升TDI的参考模式少于10,800英镑的车窗stylance对付另一个版本上这些价值800英镑. The cars that are in the biggest demand remain the 2.0-litre Sport variants.这是最大的汽车需求依然2.0公升体育变种. The 2.0-litre FSI Sport retails at around £13,000 while you?ll need another £1,000 for the most desirable car in the Altea line up, the 2.0-litre TDI Sport.<2.0公升零售控股体育13,000英镑左右,而你呢?当地需求为1000英镑,另外车在最理想altea排队,在2.0升TDI的乐趣. Insurance ranges from Group 5 through to Group 9.保险集团则由组5至9.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR 寻找什么
Tried and tested engines, the VW-standard quality auditing and an inherent feeling of solidity all bode well for the Altea?s reliability.久经考验引擎64+15的标准和内在质量审核感情坚固的所有兆头altea?收盘可靠性. Having been on sale for such a short duration, it?s perhaps inevitable that no major faults have emerged, but watch out for neglected ex-hire cars.被出售这种短时间?收盘或许难免不出现重大失误,但提防被忽视退役出租车. The Altea is a car where the price differences between good and bad examples aren?t too great, so be fussy.altea是那里的一辆汽车的价格差异均无好的例子?笔过大,从而被模糊. Look for a fully stamped up service history and reject anything that looks in any way tatty, grubby or vaguely dog-eared.寻找一个完全的服务历史,打上了摒弃旧面貌任何方式、grubby还是依稀狗耳.
REPLACEMENT PARTS 替换零件
(approx based on an Altea 2.0 TDi DSG ex VAT) SEAT spares are reasonably priced, with a replacement Altea headlamp costing £111.(大约2.0TDI的基础上altea前常务增值税)所在地备件价钱合理,以替换altea前照灯耗资111英镑. A replacement alternator unit retails at around £185 with an exchange starter motor setting you back just under £120.更换发电机组185英镑左右,零售与交流起动马达定你回略低于120英镑. Opt for a new alternator and starter motor and the prices stack up at £370 and £226 respectively, so even if the old one is a steaming basket case, you?ll save by getting an exchange unit.选择一个新的发电机和起动马达、叠起的价格在370英镑和226英镑,分别即使是旧蒸废人,你呢?拯救当地找换单位.

ON THE ROAD 在路上
Based on the latest generation Golf chassis, the Altea serves up a set of sophisticated road manners.根据最新的一代高尔夫底盘,altea全心全意一套精密的马路上. The multi link rear axle and McPherson struts up front offer a very good ride/handling compromise, helped in no small part by one of the best electro-mechanical steering systems we?ve yet come across.多方联系后车轴Struts的亲友提供了一个非常好的坐前面/折衷处理,帮助不小部分的一个最佳机电督导制度?但是碰到味. Turn-in is surprisingly sharp for a vehicle that?s fully 1570mm high and body roll is very well controlled.投票是在为一辆车,竟然锐利?收盘高、体全面1570mm辊是很好的控制. The Altea isn?t found wanting in terms of safety provision, being SEAT?s first car to be sold in the EU with twin front, side, and head airbags as standard.肖国altea的?笔立定在安全条款正在席位?首先要出售的汽车在欧盟双阵线一边,头部气袋作为标准. Three-point anchors for all five seats, ISOFIX child seat attachments, anti lock brakes and traction control are all offered.三点主播所有五个座位,座位isofix儿童实习,牵引控制和防锁煞车一切优惠.
Four engines were available from launch; two petrol and two diesel.可从四个引擎启动;汽油和柴油两种两.

Diesel buyers chose between the 105bhp 1.9-litre powerplant and the 140bhp 2.0-litre turbodiesel unit.选择购买柴油之间105bhp1.9公升140bhp及2.0电厂公升turbodiesel股. A five-speed manual gearbox was fitted as standard to all models although buyers of the two more powerful engines could opt for a six speed unit.五速变速箱手册作为标准来装配所有型号虽然买了两个更强大的引擎可以选择6速股. A six-speed Tiptronic automatic was available with the 2.0-litre FSI engine and those who opted for the most powerful diesel also got the chance to use the astonishing twin-clutch DSG gearbox of Audi TT fame.6速tiptronic自动获得与2.0公升引擎的控股者选择最强大的柴油也有机会使用惊人的双离合器变速箱的奥迪常务特成名.
The 1.6-litre petrol engine shifted the biggest numbers in the UK and with a full 1320kg to heft up Her Majesty?s highway, cynics thought that this surely would be a stern test of SEAT?s pre-launch promises of fun behind the wheel.160公升汽油引擎的最大数量转向英国和分量上升到了全面1320kg女皇?收盘公路、讥讽一定会以为这一次严峻考验席位?收盘前推出热闹的背后车轮. It turned out to be just enough engine, getting the Altea to 60mph in 12.5 seconds and on to a top speed of 113mph.原来是刚刚够引擎在5月12日至60mph获得altea秒,最高时速达113mph到. Obviously, driving as if your trousers are on fire isn?t going to see anything like the 36.7mpg combined fuel consumption figure quoted by SEAT but the Altea does encourage ?spirited?显然如您是驾驶裤子火霞?笔会看见的36.7mpg油耗数字组合引述席位altea但是否鼓励?活泼可爱? progress.进步. Tested back to back, most buyers would probably prefer the 105bhp 1.9-litre diesel which offers bags more torque and therefore superior real world performance.背对背测试、最喜欢的买家大概105bhp1.9公升柴油提供袋扭矩,因此更优于现实表现.
OVERALL 总体
With the demise of the Honda Stream, Ford?s Focus C-MAX had things largely its own way as the mini-MPV that?s was fun to drive.本田与消亡的垂柳福特?三收盘焦点-马克斯曾作为东西基本上我行我素小巡逻艇?收盘为驾驶乐趣. That was until SEAT?s Altea was launched.那是直到席位?收盘altea拉开战幕. Since then, keen drivers in this sector have had a decent choice and if the slightly bland styling of the Ford doesn?t appeal, you?ll probably love this slice of auto emocion.从此,司机曾热衷于这个行业的选择,如果稍微象样的造型平淡福特不惜?笔上诉你?当地汽车emocion大概爱情这片. The best buys look to be the entry level 1.6-litre petrol models and the range-topping 2.0-litre TDI Sport variants but there?s really not a bad car in the Altea line up最好看是买入门级1.6公升汽油型号的射程--超过2.0升TDI的变种,但运动?真是个不错的车列队在altea
