SEAT Mii – seating everyone with another Up! variant

SEAT has unveiled its new Mii city car, which it will begin selling in its home market, Spain, before the year is out, with the rest of Europe to follow in spring 2012.

The 3.55 metre long Mii will first be introduced as a three-door, with the five-door version arriving next year. Drivetrain is a 1.0 litre three-cylinder MPI unit, with two output tunes available for the Ecomotive – 60 PS and 75 PS.

If it’s all starting to sound like you’ve seen those numbers before, well, you have, because the Mii is the SEAT version of the Volkswagen Up!, and together with the recently announced Skoda Citigo, form a trinity of hatchbacks utilising the same base platform.

Like its relatives, the Mii has 251 litres of boot space, increasing to 951 litres with the rear seats folded. Other numbers include a 35 litre capacity fuel tank and an 854 kg base weight. Aside from a five-speed manual transmission, the Mii is available with an automated manual box boasting two electric motors to offer smoother gear changes.

Features include a start/stop system, brake energy regeneration, City Safety Assist and a removable SEAT Portable System with a five-inch screen, navigation system and hands-free phone system with voice control.

In Spain, the Mii will be available in three equipment lines – the base version as well as Reference and Style, the latter offering features such as power windows and central locking. Chic and Sport packs add alloy wheels and leather steering to the equation, and for the Sport tinted windows and a sports suspension

      SEAT is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of the German Volkswagen Group, as a member of the now-defunct Audi Brand Group, together with Audi and Lamborghini, and marketed as a car maker with a youthful sporty profile. Within the Volkswagen Group and under the Audi Brand Group, the SEAT brand itself has been developed as a group with subsidiary companies (SEAT Group) and ‘SEAT, S.A.’ as the parent company.

      You r really a dumb P1/BN fellow, MoFaz.. This time you have really shown your true self, and by “shooting your own foot”, big time. This really show how “en-closed” in the mind set of you “blind” P1/BN die-hard don’t-care-even-if-all-else-goes-up-in-flame supporters.
      Go Google or wiki VW group. Please go En-rich your mind just like PM N and Ex PM B ask you all to. K.

      • @Blue-traveler: And we’re suppose to believe that when PR/Anwar comes into power, he will totally shut down Proton and Perodua? That’s your brilliant open minded deduction?

          I don’t think that any political parties have said that they want to close P1. Maybe a diff management has been said b4.(I’m not sure, correct me if I’m wrong)

          Anyway, do you guys think VW up! or this SEAT Mii, will come to Malaysia? Would be good to have more option in this class. Currently I still like Myvi under this class. But I believe Ford is currently the winner; not counting the sales fig. Just fun to drive.

            Actually if I recall correctly shutting down Proton (I don’t think they named it specifically, but the way they described it made it very clear which company they were talking about) was mentioned in DAP’s manifesto during GE12.

  • It’s already end of the year 2011, and they come up with this kind of design. I admit that the base car Up! is a good car but this kind of design is too conservative, compared to Korean makes such as the new Hyundai i30 or Kia Rio or even the new Myvi (!).
