He finds out how a SEAT Leon is made
How do all the parts of the car I’ve just bought fit together?” wondered SEAT customer Markus Buchholz. So, after ordering a Leon ST, he decided to ask SEAT whether it would be possible to visit the Martorell production plant.
Accompanied by his wife, and guided by a SEAT factory team, Markus began his tour in the press shop, where the process of manufacturing a car begins. Here the parts that make up the bodywork are stamped out.
In the bodywork shop, the most automated part of the plant, more than 2,000 robots spot-weld the bodywork. “This is impressive!” said Markus, who used the occasion to fire off a whole series of questions at the SEAT personnel.
“When you go to a dealership all you see is a beautifully finished car, but seeing what is behind that car and how it has been built is really interesting,” he added.
