SEAT / BARCELONA / SPAIN ( 1953 - today )
Why not talk about SEAT emblems ? This major European car manufacturer was founded in 1950 and built the first car in 1953, so over 70 years ago. The letters “SEAT” stand for “Sociedad Espanola de Automoviles de Turismo”. The first vehicles produced under license were the Italian FIAT 600 and the FIAT 1400. The FIAT type 850 was also built under license and reached around 650,000 units. The first car with the brand's own styling followed in 1969. Volkswagen AG acquired a shares in SEAT in 1982 and took over the company in the early 1990s.
