  |  SEAT to produce two new C/D-segment models in Martorell SEAT Profecto Sketch 2009 1.jpg SEAT Profecto Sketch 2009 2.jpg SEAT SUV Sketch 2009 1.jpg SEAT SUV Sketch 2009 2.jpg PROGRESSES IN IMPROVEMENT PLAN FAVOUR DECISION  The Spanish car maker SEAT, S.A. will manufacture two new C/D-segment models at its plant in Martorell. This was announced today by SEAT chairman Erich Schmitt, during a meeting with several media representatives at the SEAT headquarters. In the future, SEAT will have two versions: a saloon and an estate car. The decision to produce these models in Martorell, whose market launch is planned for 2009, contributes to considerably improve the capacity utilization of the Spanish plant. This announcement is the first made by SEAT since the dissolution of the brand groups and supports the progress of the Improvement Plan that was set in motion at the beginning of 2007 and whose most important objectives have been met by now. Erich Schmitt said: “The assignment of the two new C/D-segment models to the plant in Martorell is an historic step for SEAT. By these means, we enlarge our current product range, which does not only give our clients the possibility to grow with the brand, but also enables us to increase the profitability of our dealer network thanks to the availability of these new models.” |

| Re: SEAT to produce two new C/D-segment models in Martorell This is exciting. From what I understand, C/D models are Passat/Phaeton size sedans, right? |

| Re: SEAT to produce two new C/D-segment models in Martorell Thats what I thought but on wiki C/D class means Passat/A6 sized cars so I'm confused. So perhaps its a VW thing I don't know ??? I'll wait till 2009 before I comment  |
