Chairman Thomas Schafer said that some Seat models like the Leon hatchback will be rebranded as "Cupra" motors.

VW Group CEO Wayne Griffiths said: "I see an alternative in the cities to cars.
"Also, perhaps, an alternative to privately owned cars and more subscription and sharing."
Seat expanded its moped range earlier this year with the Mó 125 Performance scooter, which has a higher top speed and range than the standard model.
The Performance moped charged in six to eight hours and comes in two colours - Tarifa Blue and Barcelona Grey.

"This means the scooter crashes over potholes and bumps, making for an uncomfortable ride.
"It's jarring over unavoidable bumps."
It comes after an expert mechanic said an item everyone has in their boots will ruin your motor and cost you thousands.
