Thomas and the child safety test for the rear hatch is one of the unique features you only get with Autogefühl's reviewing style and is a must for every car that uses automatic close mechanism.
Hey Thomas, hope your well! I've had my eye on this facelift coming for a while, absolute great and well balanced car for towing caravans. Thanks for another great review!

Probably the best one in this segment. I am looking forward to test drive one. The facelift has yet to arrive in my home country. Very nice and informative review by the way.
Amazing review again ! Normally, I'm not so interested of the boot review. But now that I have a Stand Up Paddleboard, I need to pump it with my electrical pump and the plug near the handbrake is not very convenient. So was waiting for the review of the boot and you give exactly the example I was waiting... Pump the paddleboard hahaha... Thank you again and long life to Autogefühl !
Outside i find it very nice and interesting, more than tiguan, Q3, kamiq and so on ... but the interiors, damn, they could do just a bit more and this car was a best buy in my opinion
Autogefühl Already did :) Now waiting for the drive experience review :) And I hope that you didn't forget about Tarraco FR review:) One more thing regarding DCC you recommend everywhere. I have Tiguan with DCC, tried Cupra with DCC and had not such great experience on not even roads in regarding various annoying chassis sounds:( This sucks great time at least for me and is one of major negative points in my Tiguan:(
My parents will be retiring to their native Croatia next year and this is the car I will buy for them to get around. The only question is, does it come in automatic?
I like the subtle changes design-wise. Some good updates and it's nice, for some at least, that they didn't bring the touch-enabled climate panel etc. But there are also some missed opportunities, like why no PHEV version? That would've been on my shortlist. If they keep that for the new generation Ateca it will probably be in 2023 and I think they are missing out. Or maybe they want us to go for the Formentor instead.. but that will probably be much more expensive 🙄
My Seat dealer told me that the ‘Leather’ in my Ateca Lux is synthetic. I bought it as I wanted the driving aids like ACC and adaptive Lane Control, and didn’t have the choice of fabric for this spec of car. I hope they were right as I didn’t have the choice of fabric seats for the spec I wanted. I wish manufacturers would allow you to easily select the ‘ethical’ option and not force you to have ‘leather’ for higher spec cars. 😞
A month or two ago I was indecisive between the ateca and tiguan. At that time I was leaning toward the tiguan. Both now have been updated and now I think I'm leaning more toward the ateca, and less toward the tiguan (for looks at least). Not changing the car for about 6 months so have time to decide. When I see both in the flesh it may make the decision harder again. Decisions decisions, very difficult
Being a facelift , its a good idea to buy the "old" version. I have a 15' golf 7 and will wait one more year before buying the prefacelift ateca with 190hp fr. I will buy it 10k cheaper with 3 y warranty .
Still confuses me how for an SUV, the Cupra Ateca never got any power outlets in the trunk compartment or cargo net hook points (which I noticed this didn't have either)🤦♂️
Gibt es das Video auch in deutsch? Würde mich schon alles interessieren, nur verstehe ich nicht alles. Wie wäre es, wenn du zukünftig die Videos in deutsch machst? Das Netz ist eh schon voll mit englischsprachigen Videos.
significantly cheaper than Q3. Compare it here: ua-cam.com/video/27oqMPOThFQ/v-deo.html And compare the Kuga here: ua-cam.com/video/GTg6cdG3u0o/v-deo.html
Love this model - tried 3 powertrains, all fun - super solid build, great sound - and it just got better! Just get the one with the REAL volume KNOB GANG! Btw. Where’s the PHEV?!?!?!?!?????
I don't see the need to electrify everything, honestly, it's better that they don't, as it adds to the price and doesn't add to the performance of the car, not to mention if it's running a small battery pack then it will be super slow charging, which means that long road trips (more than 200km) will still be running on the combustion engine entirely. Not everyone lives in a city where their work is a 5-10min drive away. As well as draining the battery below 10% is harmful to the batteries and will diminish the battery life and overall capacity, meaning you're obligated to stop and charge your battery pack, or it's going to lose close to half of its full capacity in just a year or two. I was looking at this as a "budget" car to get and also checking on the new BMW iX and other fully electric vehicles and after realizing that all the charging stations in my country are only 50kW, the dream of owning an electric vehicle vanished entirely, as I'm not gonna sit there for 2 hours just to charge my vehicle fully. Sadly, we're still lacking "superchargers" and battery packs that can take a lot of energy at once. So for me, a pure combustion engine is the only option, kind of a forced option I'd say. Maybe in another 10 years, this will change, but for now, having electric vehicles, without a proper means to charge them outside of your own garage is a waste, the saving I'd get from owning an electric vehicle compared to combustion are negligible if you factor in your own time. This is of course because I take quite long trips very frequently.
@@autogefuehl thanks, though still I'd rather have a normal version driving review and in the s4 review many of the parts of the driving lounge the pillar hides the view. Edit: don't feel pressured, pal
@@autogefuehlNo, but the reason I came to the ateca video towrite that was because it is your latest video so I thought there's the most chance You'd see it
The pre-facelift Ateca was very uninspired and basic in it's design language and although the facelift isn't a massive departure I do think it looks much more distinctively Seat. The cursive on the boot looks odd, though especially the lonely '4'.
god bless them for not imposing those absurd hhybrid engines. I don't like suvs but if I had to buy one I'd buy Ateca and with 1.5 tsi. it weights as a golf so that engine does well its work. if this was a real offroad I'd go for diesel instead but as it's not like all suvs... better the mid petrol engine : about 1330 kgs
Sorry Seat, but you still don’t have heated rear seats in 2021 ?? For me is it big fail !! Skoda Karoq have this for 176€ and USB for security camera for 76€ 👎🏻
seriously, this is all the spanish has in the automotive industry? i mean no surprised that it's owned by the germans since spain can't produce a proper automobile.

You guys have the only car test channel that is worth watching. Keep up the good work!
Thanks m8!!
I just saw this car today. It looks great! I love that it's design is so simple and clean.
LOVED that you took the measurements of the trunk! Also nice review!
thanks martin!
"Use The Force Thomas!" We've had the Tiguan facelift, next perhaps the Kodiaq and Karoq. Thanks for the usual Autogefuhl detail.
Thomas and the child safety test for the rear hatch is one of the unique features you only get with Autogefühl's reviewing style and is a must for every car that uses automatic close mechanism.
👌
Thank you Thomas, just placed an order for the Ateca. The amount of goodies you get for the price and the sporty modren look helped with our decision.
“Not a clear case for the fake exhaust police” I was laughing here. Very good review!
=)
I watched a lot of videos about this tool, but I haven't found a detailed video like yours, congratulations I'm waiting for your test video
Hey Thomas, hope your well! I've had my eye on this facelift coming for a while, absolute great and well balanced car for towing caravans. Thanks for another great review!
Is the factory fitted towbar alko compatible??
I love That You care for animals! Keep doing it for the seats! Love your reviews !!
Thanks so much! And great that u do as well

I really do prefer the older exterior look, it's so good!
Seat gets better and better, design is very sporty
but the base is crap VAG
@@Earl_VTEC vag is crap ?:)).... oh mate.
Outside i find it very nice and interesting, more than tiguan, Q3, kamiq and so on ... but the interiors, damn, they could do just a bit more and this car was a best buy in my opinion
I'm really waiting on your test drive Thomas, if you could get an FR Trim, that would be superb!
Great to see they’ve retained manual heating controls. Fingers crossed they will on the Arona also!
Thanks for the one of the first reviews in English:)
appreciated, feel free to recommend =)

Over 3 days i got mine Ateca FR 1.5 Automatic. dark camouflage. Cant wait...
Love the interior, very clean and elegant. Not overstyled like some other cars ...
Very good review, thanks
All the Seat models today are better looking than the VW's siblings...
Thanks for this video it's very helpful
My parents will be retiring to their native Croatia next year and this is the car I will buy for them to get around. The only question is, does it come in automatic?
I do hope the next Passat/Superb goes in this direction with both the screens at the same height
I like the subtle changes design-wise. Some good updates and it's nice, for some at least, that they didn't bring the touch-enabled climate panel etc.

Great reviews but can I ask you why do you use that big microphone?
Nice review, thank you Thomas. One question, could you please include in your reviews a short view of the rear view camera engaged ?
Thanks! We usually do that
I was looking for leather seats for my new car, but you converted me, Thomas. I'll go for fabric ones. More ethical... and cheaper!
awesome!!

Top review again Thomas but where's the 190bhp TDI? ☹️
Andrew Wheeler diesel are now considered illegal and obsolete
Nice smartwear, Thomas!
cheers!
Good review!!! Nice facelift!
Is it just me or this facelift is more like the Arona? Beautiful.
Hallo, which problems do you know about the Infotainmentsystem, that ton is not working and display keeps switched off?
A month or two ago I was indecisive between the ateca and tiguan. At that time I was leaning toward the tiguan. Both now have been updated and now I think I'm leaning more toward the ateca, and less toward the tiguan (for looks at least). Not changing the car for about 6 months so have time to decide.

we ll keep u updated with the driving reviews :)
Nice review! Good as always 😄. Is this for sale now? If not our neighbour just bought the older version.
cheers! Should be available to order soon
Older version is not wrong..

i like the previous design (exterior)
Nice car. Love the desing..
Still confuses me how for an SUV, the Cupra Ateca never got any power outlets in the trunk compartment or cargo net hook points (which I noticed this didn't have either)🤦♂️
Regular Seat Ateca has that..i don't know for Cupra..
Stefan salvatore is that you, nice review

Hi Thomas! Do you know anything about the facelift of Skoda Kodiaq? Seems like they’re testing it
I like it 😍 better than new Kuga though ? Better price than a Q3 ?
significantly cheaper than Q3.
Compare it here: ua-cam.com/video/27oqMPOThFQ/v-deo.html
And compare the Kuga here:
ua-cam.com/video/GTg6cdG3u0o/v-deo.html
Thanks for the review. Do you know the name of this color?
Love this model - tried 3 powertrains, all fun - super solid build, great sound - and it just got better! Just get the one with the REAL volume KNOB GANG! Btw. Where’s the PHEV?!?!?!?!?????
Maybe I'm oldschool but does it have a CD player? I need to play my old DJ mixtapes from when I was playing! Would be nice haha!
nice a good looking compact SUV
When is your new FR review due?
Event was canceled due to corona... keeping u posted
Improved looks
Nice. I wonder what the new Fr trim would look like.
Beautiful SUV
I really like the narrator voice

Hm, this is our normal driving review?
@@autogefuehlNo, but the reason I came to the ateca video towrite that was because it is your latest video so I thought there's the most chance You'd see it
I don't really like the new grey interior finish, looks like an old Volvo V40 from 2010...
When will this model coming here in the Philippines
if they sell the Ateca there now?
SEAT is not in the Philippines, like Australia :(
Does Seat is reliable vehicle ?
Yes, it's like a volkswagen but it has the plus of spanish engineering
The worst brand of Vw group, but is reliable
Qué pena que no pueda entender lo que dices! Jaja Lástima que los subtitulos no estén en español. Buen vídeo!
I have a 2017 Ateca, not really enough appeal here to warrant a upgrade I think a late model pre facelift would offer better value.
no matrix LEDs in 2021? aaannnd we are done here :/
Nice❤
Super car 👍😍😍
Good car!!
Oldschool👍😁
To be honest it is much more better than Benz GLA from outside !
My new car :)
The Seat Ateca is a mixed of Volkswagen and Audi
❤❤❤
Seat ❤
Waiting driving experience
we ll keep u updated on that!
The pre-facelift Ateca was very uninspired and basic in it's design language and although the facelift isn't a massive departure I do think it looks much more distinctively Seat. The cursive on the boot looks odd, though especially the lonely '4'.
From the inside it is a copy of the previous model Leon , updated with the new infotainment software and a different steering wheel.
Thomas looks very unenthusiastic? Either the car is meh or he has something going on in his life. Anyway anyhow may everything goes your way ❤️
hehe I m good man =) thanks!

Ford kuga 2020
Go with Honda HRV 1.5 Turbo Sport!
Its a Tiguan! The shape the size the look. Too conservative.
Fake Exhaust Police Disapprove !!!
Is this just not a cheap Tiguan? I’d rather have the Tiguan than this…
Looks like an Audi
Get a wireless mic
Main dials screen is so laggy. Sreiously? Its repulsive, wouldnt wanna that car because of that.
