Pros One of the nicer cabins in this class, turbo engine adds excitement, satisfying ride-and-handling traits.
Cons Cargo area is tight, worse fuel economy than many competitors, turbo engine limited to priciest model.
Pros Plenty of tech on board Smooth hybrid system Nice cabin quality
Cons Fiddly climate controls Slightly firm ride Front-end styling is divisive
The Arona is perfectly ok, but Seat found it too easy to leap on the small-crossover bandwagon. They just faxed it in. Get a Leon instead.
Pros Decent chassis, good infotainment system and tech
Cons Updated cabin still a little drab, trim levels restrict your kit choices
Pros Looks great Well equipped across the range Nice and easy to drive
Cons Tight on space for rear passengers Lags behind on boot space Some cheap-feeling interior bits
