Seat SUV range grows with new Arona

As flagged in our recent review of the excellent Seat Ateca, the company’s SUV line-up is set to get much bigger.

The Ateca will be joined in the second half of this year by the Arona, a compact crossover based on the same platform as the Ibiza.

But, Seat says it will reinforce the product offensive that began with the Ateca with the launch of a third SUV, which will become the flagship model of SEAT. This new SUV, which has not yet been named, will be positioned one segment above the successful Ateca, feature 5 and 7-seater versions, and will reach dealerships in 2018.
