In 2024, the Martorell plant produced 470,347 vehicles, with Seat models accounting for 47.8% of production, or over 225,000 units of the Ibiza, Arona, and León models. Cupra models, which are more profitable for Seat SA, made up 36.5% of production, with 171,844 units of the León and Formentor models. Cupra has now surpassed Seat in sales, with 328,819 units sold worldwide in 2025, a 32.5% increase from the previous year.",
