About the Alhambra

Minivans in the 1990s proved extremely popular, and the SEAT Alhambra was no exception. Manufactured by the Spanish automaker, the Alhambra had a successful run of 24 years starting from 1996 and ceasing production in 2020.

SEAT took advantage of the Volkswagen Auto Europa plant in Palmela, Portugal building their Alhambra alongside the VW Sharan. Both vehicles shared the same platform and were closely related to the Ford Galaxy, another 7-seat minivan.

The first generation debuted at the Geneva Motor Show in 1996 and following a good reception, production began quickly, with the first Alhambra going on sale the same year. Compared to its competitors, the Alhambra had distinctly more features for a reduced rate. Cargo space could be dramatically increased using the folding seat system the Alhambra provided. Families were able to manipulate the rear seats to suit their requirements. All five of the back seats could be folded down or removed entirely to allow for bulkier items like bicycles to be accommodated for.

Three petrol engines and 6 diesels made up the line, and by the time the second generation reached the dealerships, the Alhambra had grown an extra 22 cm in length and 9 cm in width. Here, a sliding door was fitted to allow for greater access to the rear and replaced the more traditional hinged arrangement found in cars like the Galaxy.

SEAT also made four-wheel drive available for these new releases and coupled this with a 6-speed manual transmission.

Euro NCAP awarded the Alhambra the highest score, 5 stars, with a split of 96% safety rating for adults and 80% for children.

In later years, with the crossover variations of vehicles becoming ever popular, the Alhambra simply grew less desirable resulting in just a little over 23,000 sales spreading the entirety of Europe. As a result, the Alhambra ended production in 2020 which many review sites described as a tragedy.’
