Mat, you're my best car journalist out there. I watch a lot of your car reviews. You've managed with your unique approach for car reviewing, which includes humor, plain and simple yet accurate explanation of specs and features, and sticking to the same reviewing method in every video, to set yourself apart. I don't want to spend 30+ minutes watching a car review which covers every single piece of the vehicle, and that's why I liked your reviews the most. They're relatively short yet informative. Keep up the good work!
I have now had my Tarraco 2,0 TSI 190 hp excellence for 6 months and I love it. Lots of pulling power so its fun to drive and the long hauls with the car stuffed with family is also great just cruising along the highway. + its the exact same as a tiguan but just cheaper because of the brand and since I am no brand snop, its a better deal.
I feel the review was filmed quite a long time ago, as he is still using the One plus five. Everyone who possibly follow him knows he is currently using a S10+
Been driving my Xcellence 190hp DSG for one month now. It’s fully equipped with everything except leather seat and trailer park assistance. Absolutely love it! Happy to answer questions for anyone thinking about buying it. Great value for money!
I always like your reviews a lot but there are some things that I never understand that you complain about. 1. Putting seats down manually and on the side. How often do you actually need to use this? It’s not a problem with kids either because they are not in the car with you naturally. 2. Cheap plastics in the back. Have you got kids? They will try to destroy the panels with whatever it takes. Good with plastic. Bad with soft leather. 3. Fake exhausts. I think that rear accidents costs a lot already. No reason to damage the full exhaust system as well.
As a woman with kids, I must tell you that not everyone has kids or wants kids so this all seems like a personal problem to you. Mat doesn't have kids so he reviewed it from his perspective.
Depends of the kids some kids are good some are not I have my seat Tarraco I love it I don’t why you don’t like this vehicle I also got my Volvo XC90 2018 D5 R design even in that car the plastic is not good! Some cars has good material some not!
i own a vw t-roc, lovely car and i like it but the materials used un its interior are so cheap it makes any seat interior look great. but i do believe the t-roc to be the only model in vw's range with such cheap interior materials
@A real bisexual petrol-head Well yeah, it's a family SUV *BUT* the only distinction between Seat and the other VAG brands is their slightly sportier image, if that isn't there then what's the point of the Tarraco over a Kodiaq or Tiguan Allspace?
I'm from Tarragona!! And in Spain you could vote which name you wanted to put in to the new car or suggest another and finally this wone, and I'm quite happy. The name Tarraco comes from the old city name of Tarragona, when the roman empire was here, thas why it is related to the amphitheater
Good review, as always! But... could you please tell the fuel consumption also in l/100Km in addition to mpg ? For the viewers in countries where mpg is not used... which are about 99 % of all countries in the world ;-)
@@Kayobong you can also google seat tarraco instead of watching the video ;) The point is getting the all info in one place and most of viewers use liter calculation.
I own this car for the last 6 months and I am happy with it. it is good value for the money I paid, because when I bought the car, both tiguan and kodiaq were more expensive with much less options (and obviously I didnt want to go for a French alternative). although the material quality is a bit less in Tarraco, I dont regret to pick it.
All things aside, I love how you actually recommend the Tarraco, and you allmost ditched the allspace tiguan! That shoes some integrity! Keep up the good work!
Oh yeah !!! I have a Seat alhambra 2012...wich I buy after your review ,at that time in "car buyer" . And now, I get this car in my short list. Thanks man. Nice job
"that's 15 seconds of your life you'll never get back" That's only relevant if you have to keep your finger on the button, which you don't, so you don't lose any seconds of your life. You press the button and move onto the next thing.
Ended ordering a FR 150 tsi. I was going to get the skoda kodiaq but then got messed around with the options with what I could and couldn't get and prices jumping up quickly. I found the tarraco after this ordeal and it was on a special lease and way better value with tons of options included vs the skoda and also better looking in my humble opinion.
Fun fact: On the 5 seater version you can push the rear bench further backwards than you can on the seven seater version thus getting more legroom in the 2nd row.
Lately I've been driving for a living..honestly , I drove two Seats for the first time today and they feel really nice , the interior is half and half with some cheap plasticw but these cars are comfy and nice to drive.
a bit unfair about the fake exhausts - I don't think it doesn't even try to look like an exhaust, it's just somewhat stylishly designed corner of the back bumper
@A real bisexual petrol-head chill out, you'll have an aneurysm. You're the kind if guy who thinks cos you don't care about the button that makes you more 9f a man. It doesn't it makes you the kind of bloke so emotionally fragile that you have to rant at harmless stuff on you tube.
For me, I think it’s a sign of lower quality parts/attention to detail - it wouldn’t have cost much to have the inside of the button fixed and the outside/rim of the button rotates (like you would on Audi/BMW/Mercs)... I see something like that and it makes me think compromises have been made/corners have been cut on quality to meet a price point...
Hi I am buying the 2.0L diesel auto with the dsg gear box at the end of this week. I have been told it is the fr sport spec and google says it is the xcellence lux edition. Will this come with the panoramic roof automatically?
Good video as always but I saw a video on the new Audi q7 and I bet right now your work on that video right now but my main question is can the carwow stick of truth go through the exhaust pipes or just break on entry?
Is there any chance that you guys could name the consumption on L/100 KM too? I think you guys have quite a big audience outside of the UK! ;) Also is there any chance to make an exact measurement instead of just reading out the bordcomputer? Thanks !:D
Seat tarraco is increible car!!i bought it and it is totally amazing. A lot technology , very secure, confortable and pleasent to drive it.suv premium!! totally recomended!
@@dragospahontu the RAV4 is too expensive, in my country the rav4 is 4000 euros more expensive then the tarraco and the RAV4 is a smaller, not so good with technology family car
@@lekaqilerxhiu7115 it has way more technology. In three years you will get you're money back on the Toyota because of the reliable and efficient hybrid system. Toyota overall is better built.
I don't really get the point of this to be quite honest? VAG already offers the Škoda Kodiaq and the VW Tiguan Allspace and this has nothing going for it in comparison to those or distinguishing it from them.

It must be after March 2019 because the license plate says 19. License plates are released twice a year in the U.K. in March and September :)
Also, he describes it as being new but they came out last year. I sat in one in a dealership back in March.
TheCamshafter True the same with me. :)
Ah that probably explains why the "geek mode" segment is missing. The current vids all have it. :)
Can you not tell by looking at Matt ? XD
Been driving my Xcellence 190hp DSG for one month now. It’s fully equipped with everything except leather seat and trailer park assistance. Absolutely love it! Happy to answer questions for anyone thinking about buying it. Great value for money!
What is the fuel consumption on this. Also is it big as an SUV when you look at it in the real world compared to the videos?

bruh fuck off
im happyer with my bmw with real exhausts

@@justentertainingtv9686 it's a 7 seater, aimed at...people with kids. 95% of ppl who buy this will have kids
@@midnightrider287 you shouldn't assume and show me those statistics

Seat really should a sportier interior, the exteriors are always nice enough but the inside just feel like budget VWs
Its basicaly what it is.
i own a vw t-roc, lovely car and i like it but the materials used un its interior are so cheap it makes any seat interior look great. but i do believe the t-roc to be the only model in vw's range with such cheap interior materials
@@michael85rs T Roc is pretty much Polo, so I wouldn't expect a very luxurious interior
The interior is like a Golf V, with a new screen and a steering wheel, so boring and outdated.
@A real bisexual petrol-head Well yeah, it's a family SUV *BUT* the only distinction between Seat and the other VAG brands is their slightly sportier image, if that isn't there then what's the point of the Tarraco over a Kodiaq or Tiguan Allspace?
Keep up the good work Mat, I could watch your reviews all day.
So refreshingly straight forward.
I'm from Tarragona!! And in Spain you could vote which name you wanted to put in to the new car or suggest another and finally this wone, and I'm quite happy. The name Tarraco comes from the old city name of Tarragona, when the roman empire was here, thas why it is related to the amphitheater
I was there last month well worth a visit.
Tarragona is Berber Amazigh ⵣ
Good review, as always! But... could you please tell the fuel consumption also in l/100Km in addition to mpg ? For the viewers in countries where mpg is not used... which are about 99 % of all countries in the world ;-)
OAS google is your friend
@@Kayobong you can also google seat tarraco instead of watching the video ;) The point is getting the all info in one place and most of viewers use liter calculation.
@@canyang4608 If you're watching an English reviewer you should expect English units of measurement.
99% ??? i have told you a BILLION times to not exaggerate (lol)
I actually got used to mpg after watching carwow videos :D
I own this car for the last 6 months and I am happy with it. it is good value for the money I paid, because when I bought the car, both tiguan and kodiaq were more expensive with much less options (and obviously I didnt want to go for a French alternative). although the material quality is a bit less in Tarraco, I dont regret to pick it.
Which engine type did you go for and what’s the real-life MPG you get driving it on a daily basis?
All things aside, I love how you actually recommend the Tarraco, and you allmost ditched the allspace tiguan! That shoes some integrity! Keep up the good work!
Oh yeah !!! I have a Seat alhambra 2012...wich I buy after your review ,at that time in "car buyer" . And now, I get this car in my short list. Thanks man. Nice job
Don’t do it.
I test drove both.
The Alhambra is miles better than this. Ride quality, build quality and space are streets ahead
@@eddiej1980 thx for advice
Mat gets more wierd and funny as he makes more videos 😂 9:54
Where is the video about the facelifted Q7 carwow?
Matt probably fell asleep while talking about the Q7.
Or peugeot 2008
Looks awful
"that's 15 seconds of your life you'll never get back"
That's only relevant if you have to keep your finger on the button, which you don't, so you don't lose any seconds of your life. You press the button and move onto the next thing.
He was joking, obviously. in case you failed to tell by the fact he tried to drink like a cat from the seat armrest...
I agree with your verdict and would have bought one... if I lived in the UK where cars cost half of what they do in denmark.
Why do cars cost so much in Denmark?
Ended ordering a FR 150 tsi. I was going to get the skoda kodiaq but then got messed around with the options with what I could and couldn't get and prices jumping up quickly. I found the tarraco after this ordeal and it was on a special lease and way better value with tons of options included vs the skoda and also better looking in my humble opinion.
so much energy in a car review, someone definitely had a good night
The funniest thing is that someone will finally buy this car and.... Matt licked the "indentation" inside 10:00
Beautiful car I bought it the same model 2.0 diesel 4 wheel drive color indium grey
When did you film this? I notice that you're using your OnePlus instead of your S10+
I only watched your videos to see. Every car dashboard 😍😍❤️✌️👌
Fun fact: On the 5 seater version you can push the rear bench further backwards than you can on the seven seater version thus getting more legroom in the 2nd row.
Love your vids specially the super cars and luxury ones keep up that work
Thoughts an prayers for your cameraman Mat :(
Crazy video one of the most entertaining car reviews by carwow 🔥🔥🔥👍👍
10:00 OMG this is why i love you guys😛😛😛
Love the way you review cars. Pretty unique
I like your videous man,you’re doing a great job...i specially enjoy the “5 annoying/good things” part!...thumbs up 👍👍👍
0:48 you can see it's just the Tiguan allspace with the seat badge slapped on it from that angle
8:33 When you talk about the practicality can you show how much space there is in 6 seater mode?
Very clever is the SOS button and automatic 112 call after accident.
Nice vid mate keep going love you❤❤❤
Lately I've been driving for a living..honestly , I drove two Seats for the first time today and they feel really nice , the interior is half and half with some cheap plasticw but these cars are comfy and nice to drive.
Before I watch the video... Is the infontainement as good as bmw idrive?
Audio Fun 'not quite'
So much I brought one, thanks CARWOW.
Very good review.
Would it be possible for you to do a couple of pick up truck like the Nissan for ford
Love Seat Tarraco I would go for 2.0 litre front wheel drive 150bhp xcellcele. 😀
Mats review is totally another level
I've got absolutely no idea what's this car's benefit over the Tiguan Allspace and the Kodiak. Probably only greater discounts, really.
When I first started watching your videos I would always get mad when you throw parts of the cars, but now I’m just laughing my a** off 👌🏻😂
A real bisexual petrol-head no, only when I’m overly happy
1:36 laughin hard with mat's 'AND' 🤭😭
Was literally watching the 9month ago video yesterday and thinking damn where’s the review! Thanks!
a bit unfair about the fake exhausts - I don't think it doesn't even try to look like an exhaust, it's just somewhat stylishly designed corner of the back bumper
I don't understand why there is a hump in the floor in large SUVs. Surely with the higher raised height they could make the floor flat?
Because of safety reasons it sometime needs to be there and also its on a shared platform
You guys across the pond has a 7 seater at $28,000.....this thing would start at $45,000-$60,000 here in the States brand new.
Have.
please update SEAT Tarraco review. It is 3 years old now!
Brilliant review as usual Mat
Literally ordered the 4drive auto diesel version of this car so this review came in perfect timing! Thanks Matt
Do you still have it ?
3:30 anyone else bothered about the volume/power button not staying orientated upwards?
dealbreaker for me.
Me, drives my daughter mad when I do it in her car. Gotta be pointing up, use the s/wheel controls.
A real bisexual petrol-head jeez, lighten up...
@A real bisexual petrol-head chill out, you'll have an aneurysm. You're the kind if guy who thinks cos you don't care about the button that makes you more 9f a man. It doesn't it makes you the kind of bloke so emotionally fragile that you have to rant at harmless stuff on you tube.

Hey Matt! You should do a gym workout routine video
The disgusted face while saying „The Skoda Kodiac“ is pure gold
The very first thing came to my mind after watching this car that it is similar to scoda kodiaq and u mentioned that too..
Do a drag race with it
i dont even like cars that much, i just like mat.
Matt when you talk about engines I think most people would rather know MPG than 0-60 ....
what is MPG?
Much better way of doing Geek Mode Mat! Great review.
Seat tarraco vs Skoda Kodiaq vs vw tiguan allspace comparo
ruman shaikh same cars, with the same materials, same design in and out... and lastly they cause the same boredom 😴 💤
This car is actually really good. My parents have a Excellence version and it’s really nice.
Is the audio good? Maybe Toyota RAV4 is better?
@@dragospahontu The audio is decent, the RAV4 is so much uglier then the tarraco
Hi I am buying the 2.0L diesel auto with the dsg gear box at the end of this week. I have been told it is the fr sport spec and google says it is the xcellence lux edition. Will this come with the panoramic roof automatically?
What happened to the geek mode segment? :)
Do you have padel shifter if you get a automatik tarraco I have that on my ateca
Any reviews on Hyundai Pallisade and Kia Telluride from CARWOW
Vikram Rao they are not available in the UK market those are specifically designed for the US market
A real bisexual petrol-head I don’t find so I think that they are both nicely designed but that’s your personal opinion
Good video as always but I saw a video on the new Audi q7 and I bet right now your work on that video right now but my main question is can the carwow stick of truth go through the exhaust pipes or just break on entry?
Matt what do you think about filming a review of your Samsung galaxy s10+ and how much of an improvement it was over the one plus
I loved how you illustrated a drinkin cat 😂😂
How does it compare to peugeot 5008?
Where did the S10 go? Why did you switch back to thr OnePlus?
10:00 2nd most weird moments in carwow after i think the first was in the range rover when the hock pulled out 😂😂😂
Can do another video on new updated modal on this car
10:32 what the hell is that on the driver's headrest?
It was great, but what's the price?
The lights work from - 40 to 90 degrees centigrade. What is centrigade? 10:47
Celsius; essentially, -40 to 194 degrees Fahrenheit.

thank god they got rid of this ridiculous geek mode lol! Great work!

How long is the car?
Did anyone find Matt too happy in this video, or it was just me?
César Maranhão de Loyola Furtado what’s wrong with that

It is too expensive, for this price you can get a Toyota RAV4! Toyota is so good.

Stunning Mat. Nr. 1
Can you do Tesla Model Y?
What happened to your Samsung s10?
10:01 you are the best! Lol
Push the headrest up a bit the seats will or should fall flat
10:23 Matt really is the Linus of car reviewers
This vehicle is 90% identical to the Tiguan Allspace, the only difference are the headlights, front and rear bumper, rear lights and central display
How long ago did you make this ?? You still have your OnePlus...
Well that rear is 0:42 FORD Sportage
13:42 Has he ever said that: You should avoid it? If yes can you give me a link? :D
ua-cam.com/video/jiUIFrLxkkA/v-deo.html he has! The Ford Mondeo Vignale:)
What does it matter if the sunroof closes in 15 seconds? Is that really important?
I have a stupid question: which is the more premium brand? : Seat or Skoda ?
