With the crossover market growing rapidly, it was the Seat’s turn to unveil their model. The Seat Arona was launched in 2017 as the brand’s 3rd release, after the facelift version of the Leon and the new Ibiza.
The Arona was the first model in the A0 compact crossover produced by the Spanish brand. Looking like the smaller brother of the Ateca, the Arona was built on the MQB A0 platform.
Everything in the exterior design screamed Seat, with the triangular head and taillights, the grille, the bumpers and the two-tone body color.
For people who enjoyed a high driving position, along with the comfort and the fuel efficiency of a city small car, the Arona was a great choice.
The initial line-up came with 3 petrol engine options: a 1.-liter three-cylinder unit with power ranging between 94 hp and 114 hp. Another 1.5-liter 4-cylinder engine was available and it proved 148 hp. Fuel consumption wise, the 1.5-liter was a great choice due its ability to turn off cylinders when suitable.
The entry-level engine was equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission, while the 3-cylinder engines could have been mated with a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic.
The Diesel engines offered were 1.6-liter units and came with 94 hp or 114 hp.
