SEAT Bolero
The SEAT Bolero 330 BT was a concept car presented at the 1998 Geneva Salon International de l’Auto. It was available as a four-door, four seat saloon car body style. The "330 BT" is derived from the power output of 330 PS. No five-door, four-seat estate car body style is ever produced. One of the most remarkable aspects of this concept consists in the elimination of the B-pillar and the use of hinges, due to which the doors could open independently in a contrary suicide door like manner, leaving room for an easier access to the rear seats. The SEAT Bolero's doors open in a manner of front conventional doors and rear sliding doors. The design of the car was a four-door saloon with rear sliding doors (four door, front engine). Another interesting issue is that the design of the SEAT Bolero incorporated many stylistic elements that would later be implemented in other models of the brand, especially in the front fascia. During development, the SEAT Exeo was codenamed Bolero, before being renamed Exeo.
