A good-looking small SUV that drives rather well. Worth considering if you're in the market.
PROS Intelligent, good-looking design inside and out, excellent infotainment
CONS Could do with a plusher ride. Turbo-less petrols can feel a bit weedy. No electrified option
PROS Classy interior Tidy handling Very well equipped
CONS Overly firm ride No seven-seat option Rivals have more space for passengers and luggage
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
