The Seat Tarraco, now also available in FR version

Seat adds the appealing FR sporty trim to the Seat Tarraco range, which is available with the 1.5 TSI and 2.0 TSI petrol engines as well as the 2.0 TDI.

FR sporty versions are among the most sought-after by buyers of Seat models. And now the brand’s large SUV, the Seat Tarraco, also receives this long-awaited variant.

As is customary, the new Seat Tarraco FR not only offers the exterior and interior styling details that identify these versions, but also includes chassis modifications aimed at achieving more agile dynamic behaviour

What changes aesthetically on the Tarraco FR

Externally, the Seat Tarraco FR is distinguished by a specific grille and bumpers, as well as side mouldings and a rear spoiler in body colour, widened wheel arches, mirror housings painted in black and 19-inch alloy wheels in two tones. 20-inch wheels are available as an option.

Inside, FR versions add a multifunction sports steering wheel, bucket-type seats with Alcantara side inserts, and sports pedals.

For this trim, customers can choose from four body colours: dark camouflage, Oryx white, Deep black and Urano grey.

Sport suspension and TSI and TDI engines

The chassis settings for the Tarraco FR include a suspension with firmer-calibrated dampers. As an option, the Dynamic Chassis Control can be fitted, with electronically controlled variable damping.

The FR trim is available with the 150 hp 1.5 Eco TSI engine, with front-wheel drive and DSG gearbox, from €39,620, or with the 190 hp 2.0 EcoTSI, also with DSG gearbox but in this case with four-wheel drive, from €45,820.

In diesel, Seat offers the Tarraco in FR trim with the 150 hp 2.0 TDI from €44,420, and from €46,070 for the 190 hp version, both with DSG gearbox and 4Drive all-wheel drive.

In the second half of the year the plug-in hybrid version will arrive, the Seat Tarraco PHEV, with 245 hp and CEO DGT environmental label, which could also be offered in FR trim.

In addition to the new FR version, Seat incorporates more equipment in the optional packs Style Edition, Xcellence Edition and FR Edition, which add useful features such as satellite navigation, the Park Assist parking aid and a wireless phone charger.
