SEAT Altea Review ( continued from < part four )

How It Looks - Interior

The interior design is just as striking as the exterior. The cabin is functional and uncluttered with chunky and tactile switchgear. The instrument dials, air vents, dashboard console and gear shift trim have modern aluminium effect surrounds.

In Car Entertainment and Satellite Navigation

The SEAT Altea 1.9 TDI PD Stylance is equipped with an integral single slot CD player/ radio with eight speakers and steering wheel controls. This system was very easy to operate on the move and the sound quality was very good.
