The SEAT Exeo (Spanish: [ekˈse.o]) was a large family car and flagship model, built by the Spanish car manufacturer SEAT, subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group.

Previously codenamed Bolero (though not to be confused with SEAT's earlier concept car bearing the same name) and internally designated Typ 3R, the name Exeo derives from the Latin word exire, meaning "to go beyond", breaking SEAT's recent tradition to name its cars after Spanish cities. This car was made available in 4-door saloon or 5-door estate styles only.

Production of the Exeo ended in 2013, and it was replaced by SEAT Toledo for the saloon, and the SEAT León ST for the estate.

The Exeo is a D-segment model which is built on the Volkswagen Group B7 (PL46) platform. It is essentially a rebadged Audi A4 B7 generation, with styling changes to the front and rear by way of unique bonnet, front wings, boot lid, doors and exterior door mirrors. It incorporates interior trim from the A4 Cabriolet, and extensively uses A4 B6 and B7 interior equipment and electrical components. To this purpose, the entire Audi A4 B7 production and assembly lines from Ingolstadt were dismantled and installed in Volkswagen Group's related SEAT factory in Martorell, Spain.
