FactThe second-gen Alhambra grew 22cm longer and 9cm wider than the original — and for the first time, you got in via sliding doors, just like its Sharan twin.
The second-generation Alhambra, on sale from October 2010 on the Volkswagen Group A6 (PQ46) platform shared with the Volkswagen Sharan. At 4.85 m it is 22 cm longer and 9 cm wider than the first generation, with access to the middle row through sliding doors as in the Sharan. In February 2013 SEAT presented a four-wheel-drive version with permanent all-wheel drive, the 2.0 TDI 140 PS and a six-speed manual, and in September 2015 the UK diesel models were revised to meet Euro 6, raising outputs from 140 to 150 PS and from 177 to 184 PS. The Alhambra Ecomotive used the 2.0 TDI 140 PS engine with 159 g/km of CO2. It was built until 2020.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.
