SEAT Arona FAQs
The SEAT Arona was launched in 2017 and sits below the SEAT Ateca and Tarraco SUVs. it’s a five-door small SUV with chunky looks and sporty hints, and comes with a range of well-equipped trim levels. There’s a choice of petrol or diesel engines, too.
At just over 4.1m long, the SEAT Arona is about 10cm longer than an Ibiza. It’s still not a massive car, so you shouldn’t have any problem slotting it into a car parking space – especially as all but the entry-level model come with rear parking sensors. The Arona is also approximately 10cm higher than an Ibiza, so you get a higher driving position with a longer view of the road ahead. Its raised height makes it easier to get kids in and out, and will be easier for you if you have limited mobility.
Inside, there’s a noticeable increase in headroom compared to an Ibiza. Legroom is generally fine – this was never going to be a luxury limousine – but tall adults might find it a bit cramped on long journeys. Some rivals offer sliding rear seats to prioritise legroom or boot space. Speaking of boot space, the Arona gets a neat 400-litre boot, compared to 355 litres in the Ibiza. The Arona even has a marginally bigger boot than the SEAT Leon and VW Golf.
The Arona comes with a pretty conventional engine range – there’s no electrification to be found, but the available petrol and diesel engines are all economical. Unlike in the Ibiza, the Arona doesn’t have an underpowered entry-level engine, either, so all feel sprightly when you head out of town.
The SEAT Arona has a pretty average reliability score – it’s not going to be a reason to buy one over its rivals, but it shouldn’t put you off either. The majority of cars will prove to be trouble-free. Some owners have reported issues with the infotainment software, but we understand it can usually be fixed with a software update from a dealer.
The SEAT Arona manages to be both comfortable and fun to drive, which isn’t common in the small SUV class. It’s economical, with small turbocharged petrol engines that can crest 50mpg. Rear-seat space is better than what’s on offer in the Ford Puma, and the boot is bigger than the Ibiza it’s based on. If you can overlook some cheap-feeling interior trim, the Arona is a good car.
It might feature the rugged looks of an off-roader, but no Arona has four-wheel drive. The vast majority of UK buyers won’t ever need four-wheel drive in a car like this, so it’s never been offered through the Arona’s lifespan. That’s true of many small SUVs – in fact, alternatives that are 4x4s are quite rare.
