Expert Opinion

Seat might have taken a few years longer than competitors to introduce its first SUV, but it quickly adopted a three-in-three policy, with the Ateca, Arona and Tarraco all launching within a small time frame. Those not needing a great deal of space should take a look at the Arona – the brand’s compact crossover that goes head-to-head with the Nissan Juke and Renault Captur. And successfully, we must add, with its combination of style, sportiness and value setting it apart from plenty in this class.

About SEAT Arona

Seat launched the Arona in 2017, just a year after the successful introduction of the Ateca – its first SUV. The Arona is a smaller model, which is cheaper to both buy and run, and uses the same underpinnings and engines as the excellent Ibiza supermini. Competing in the seriously competitive small crossover segment, it was the right car for the times, and helped Seat to grow its sales quite significantly in a short period.

In 2021, the Arona received a light mid-life update, with key changes including a slight redesign and improved finish for the interior. Additional driver assistance kit was also included, while some trims received a renaming, with Xcellence models becoming the Xperience.

Why buy a used Arona?

Seat is very good at injecting style into cars of all shapes and sizes, and the Arona is undoubtedly a big hit in this area. It’s a particularly smart-looking option, standing out with its standard-fit large alloy wheels and two-tone paint, the Arona is certainly more youthful in its design than plenty in this class. Metallic paint is also included as standard (rather than a costly option like it so often is), while the sporty-looking FR adds further eye-catching details.

It’s also one of the better crossovers to drive, with a level of dynamism that’s not often seen in this segment. It helps to make the Arona that bit more agile and enjoyable to drive, and not too dissimilar from the Ibiza it’s based on, It’s also available with a great range of turbocharged 1.0- and 1.5-litre petrol engines that deliver respectable performance combined with attractively low running costs. Seat also offered a 1.6-litre TDI diesel for a time, and is a great option for those regularly doing longer trips, with up to 60mpg claimed.

Another reason to choose the Arona is for its equipment levels, with all versions coming with plenty of kit as standard. Seat has never sold an Arona without alloy wheels or a touchscreen, with the latest cars coming with features like cruise control, LED headlights and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android all included. At the top of the range, versions come with a comprehensive list of features, such as park assist, adaptive cruise control and a digital cockpit display.

Arona updates

Here’s a short history of the Seat Arona, which dates back to 2017.

  • Seat unveiled its Arona as its new baby SUV in June 2017, with the first cars reaching customers before the end of the year. The model was key to the brand strengthening its UK sales.
  • In 2018, Seat enhanced its digital offering with the addition of a new 10.25-inch digital dial display, fitted to top-spec cars.
  • In 2021 the Arona received a light mid-life update, receiving subtle front-end design, additional standard equipment and a redesigned interior.

What should I look for when buying a used Arona?

  • Versions fitted with the large alloy wheels (particularly FR Sport) are quite susceptible to kerbing damage, which can be expensive to repair. Look out for any marks when viewing.
  • The 1.5-litre TSI petrol engine (which is admittedly quite rare to find on the Arona) has proven a bit troublesome over the years, with excess jerkiness one of its biggest issues. Make sure to check it runs and drives smoothly on a test drive.
  • Some owners have reported issues with the Front Assist autonomous emergency braking system’s sensors. If any warning lights are on the dash, it could point towards this.
