As you can see for yourself, sans the large alloy wheels and the premium interior trim that includes two-tone leather surfaces with red accent stitching, the Toledo is ready to enter production, which it will, as Seat itself admitted that sales will start "later in 2012". <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-BIWG-g9fu-E/T1DNNf_8DfI/AAAAAAAG2qo/5P4C_PD-QTs/s1600/Seat-Toledo-Concept-17.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5715293558944828914" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-BIWG-g9fu-E/T1DNNf_8DfI/AAAAAAAG2qo/5P4C_PD-QTs/s200/Seat-Toledo-Concept-17.jpg" style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; border: 1px solid rgb(224, 224, 224); width: 176px; height: 118px;"></a>The new Toledo takes the series from one extreme, which was the previous generation's extremely odd-looking MPV shape with a hastily crafted boot, to another, by which we mean "concept's" ultra-conservative three-box design. The Spanish automaker may claim that the new Toledo "combines the proportions of a classic saloon car with a sporty, almost coupé-like design", but what we see here is a car that closely resembles the <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2011/02/vw-releases-uk-pricing-for-new-jetta.html">VW Jetta sedan</a> both on the exterior and even more so, in the interior. It also looks a lot like the <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2011/09/iaa-2011-skoda-missionl-concept.html">Skoda Mission L study</a>. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/03/new-seat-toledo-concept-is-real.html#more">Read more »</a>

However, we won't have to wait until next week for our first view at the Toledo as Carscoop reader Bruno tipped us off about these shots taken from an Autobild video which has since been removed. Despite its moniker, the Toledo <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/Concepts">Concept</a> doesn’t look at all like a concept but a production ready model, which makes sense since our sources said it will go on sale in Europe before the end of the year. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/03/early-reveal-for-new-seat-toledo.html#more">Read more »</a>

We weren't able to obtain more details, but it is believed that the Toledo study will mark a return to a more conventional saloon or liftback body style for the series after the confused third generation model that was essentially an Altea MPV with a boot strapped on the rear end. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/02/new-seat-toledo-prototype-and-ibiza-fr.html#more">Read more »</a>
