I love mine. Had it since 2019 novermber, xellence lux, my first car, passed my test and learned to drive in it too, automatic petrol, absolutley beautiful drive 😊
Good review. I ve recently purchased an Arona Fr 1.0 115hp DSG and must say I'm very pleased with how refined the car is and even though is full of cheaper plastics, everything is good quality and exceptionally built. Dual clutch is smooth and punchy although it can get a bit jerky at low speed for example for parking but you get used to it. First Seat I own and very happy with it.
@@rumanshaikh1019 in fact I purchased it from a Skoda dealer, it was an ex demo so test drove the two. The Arona on this review is quite low spec although very good value for money as advised from experts. As you go up the trims the quality gets better as you can't have optionals on the UK. Kamiq is a newer model but they both from VW group so they both solidly built in my opinion. Driving both I say if you like to drive and do plenty of b roads Arona drives the best specially on Fr trim with adaptable driving modes, if you just want to relax on the motorway or city driving the Kamiq is more confortable and feels more plush. Honestly they are great cars for me and the same under the bonnet, was really down to price what weigthen more on my decision
Bought a FR version 1.0T mid last year. Though a 3 cylinder n 1.0T, the car drive effortless both in urban and highway (max at 100km as our max speed is 90km). Is perky as the 200Nm torque make overtaking easier and effortlessly 😊😊
One thing I've noticed about these reviews... "The interior is bland. Unlike " goes on the review Citroen C3 Aircross "The Interior is not to everyones taste and the controls are hard to use on the touch screen..." Cant please anyone.
It is exactly like that; I've driven both for months, and the C3 is way behind of the Seat in overall quality, plus that touchscreen is a nightmare to use. Additionally, the speedometer/cruise control speed can't be seen in certain angles of the sun...

Best review of this car I have seen (its currently on my possibles list). Very honest appraisal.

Glad you’re enjoying the car, Tiago!
Skoda kamiq looks more premium than this seat verison with soft touch materials and scrolling indicators and is also quite comfortable to drive in

I really need a silent car inside...that noise from the wind is my only problem with choosing this one
What did you go with?
@@conorandethan at first wanted to get a Volvo XC40 but ended up leasing a full feature luxury VW T-Cross (perfect except for wind noise on highway!)
@@juli8vdberg562 interesting, a great car. It's actually pretty much the same car as the Arona underneath 😅
Thanks for satisfying my curiosity.
@@conorandethan it is a nice car idd and comfy too
@@conorandethan It’s not the same as the Arona, it’s based off the Ibiza.
Cvt gearbox sounds horrible tho
Is it any good or reliable please
I am looking at one with a semi automatic gearbox
