Seat Cordoba

The SEAT Cordoba is the smaller adaptation of the supermini SEAT Ibiza, which was built by a Spanish automaker that was called SEAT. It was built from the year 1993 until the year 2008.

As SEAT’s authorized rally car, the Cordoba WRC was based on the original Cordoba, and is was built featuring a 2.0L turbocharged engine. The Cordoba WRC was the certified rally car from 1998 until 2000.

The first version of the Cordoba was launched in the summer months of the year 1993. It was named by Giorgetto Giugiaro, an Italian designer, and it was based on the frame of the Ibiza MK2.

The Ibiza MK2 would give rise to the Volkswagen Polo MK3 the upcoming year. In the year 1996 the Cordoba family was extended to include a station wagon, the Cordoba Vario, and a coupe, called the Cordoba SX.

The same engines used in the Cordoba family of cars are also features in the Ibiza and in the Volkswagen Polo. It was considerably cheaper (to make) than the sedan adaptations of small family cars, such as the Ford Escort and others. Its frame was almost equal in size, but it didn’t match the interior space simply because of the shorter wheelbase.
