Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Striking exterior design
Lots of standard kit and space
Very low PCP monthly payments
Plenty of personalisation
Good to drive

Cons
Plain interior design
Ride just okay on rough roads
Boot smaller than some rivals
Entry-level 95hp petrol a little underpowered
No Cupra planned (yet)

The five-door All-New Arona, a front-wheel-drive only SUV, is well placed in this highly popular sector of the car market.It’s available with a choice of six engines, with both the diesel and petrol variants offered in either 95PS or 115 PS form, and the sporty FR 1.5 TSI EVO leaping up to 150 PS.

Pros
Very smart looking inside and out
Good choice of engines
Well equipped and overall good value

Cons
No SatNav on basic model

The Seat Arona is quite possibly the best compact SUV of the moment. Good practicality, economy and solid driving manners are all Arona staples.It lacks the visual creativity of a Hyundai Kona or the customisation of a Citroen C3 Aircross, but its real-world strengths far outweigh having orange door mirrors. It’s a level-headed car for level-headed people.

Pros
Refined 1.0-litre petrol
Ergonomic infotainment system
Good ride

Cons
Humdrum looks
Narrow middle seat
Trim levels that dictate engine choice

Toyota has finally joined the booming city SUV segment, with a high-riding Yaris available with petrol or hybrid power.

Pros
Roomy cabin and cargo hold
Long list of advanced safety tech
Relatively fuel-efficient
Can run on regular unleaded

Cons
High price compared to most rivals
Long-ish emergency braking distance for such a small and light car
Base-model's halogen headlights could be better

By: 
caradvice.com.au

Pros
Hybrid stuff works well,
some interesting ideas here

Cons
Pre-prod car's ride not great,
occasionally sluggish performance
