Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Generous standard connectivity features,
practical interior,
peppy acceleration off the line.

Cons
All-wheel drive costs extra,
regenerative braking isn't aggressive enough to allow one-pedal driving,
real-world range isn't up to snuff.

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

By: 
topgear.com

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
