SEAT Arona Crossover (2017-2020)
Product Gallery
Product Overview
SEAT Arona is an entry-level subcompact crossover in production from 2017 to 2020, whereupon it received a facelift. It was available with a range of inline-3 and inline-4 engines that displaced 1.0 to 1.6 liters.
Essentially a jacked-up SEAT Ibiza, the Arona is the smaller alternative to the Ateca. It essentially uses the cheapest parts from VW's parts bin and is half-heartedly put together.

Reviewer score 68%The Arona is faster, sweeter to drive, more efficient, more practical and rides better than its rivals. Despite its more compact footprint compared with the Fiat, the SEAT has a bigger boot, at 400 litres. You get six airbags and autonomous braking as standard, which is a solid level of kit because its rivals don't feature the latter. Mazda has updated the CX3 this year and it's still a fine compact crossover.

Pros
- Punchy engine
- Comfortable to drive
- Decent infotainment
Cons
- Cheap to buy
- Poor efficiency
autoexpress[2]
Reviewer score 53%The Arona is the better car of the two on test in pretty much every respect. It's faster, more refined, more comfortable, better to drive and feels more hi-tech. The Renegade is improved with this 1.0 engine, because there's just enough punch, a decent level of comfort and plenty of space.

Pros
- Powerful engine
- Comfortable to drive
- Lots of standard equipment
Cons
- Not as practical as the Renegade
- Limited interior space
autoexpress[3]
Reviewer score 76%Auto Express is running a new SEAT Arona for the next six months. The supermini SUV is the latest vehicle sector manufacturers are busy trying to conquer. The Arona is slightly longer and taller than its supermini stablemate, and comes with more luggage space. Inside, there's a standard-fit eight-inch touchscreen that includes smartphone integration.

Pros
- Comfortable to drive
- Frugal styling
- Good fuel economy
Cons
- Bulky brakes
- No four-wheel-drive powertrain
autoexpress[4]
Reviewer score 65%The Arona gets more standard safety equipment of the two cars on test here. The SEAT scored a full five-star Euro NCAP rating. It offers more protection than the Suzuki thanks to its more advanced safety systems. Visibility might not be as good, but there's scope to personalise the funkier design of the SEAT, just like in the Suzuki.

Pros
- Comfortable to drive
- Decent infotainment
Cons
- Higher running costs
- Lack of safety tech
autoexpress[5]
Reviewer score 58%The VW just edges the SEAT to the top spot. It's slightly more practical, gets as much kit as you'd want and is a little cheaper. The big boot, roomy cabin, great infotainment and smooth, refined engine are enough to secure the victory. But the car is still a little bland, despite personalisation options.
