Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Some smart new styling, a new interior and big tech upgrades make the latest Arona more appealing than ever. It’s as good to drive as ever, but that comes at the expense of that firm ride. While the styling of the FR model gives it undeniable appeal, it’s certainly a case of try before you buy.
