I would go for the Kia Stonic because it has a vibe to it on the outside, simple dash layout with colourful pieces of trim and driving experience puts a smile on your face.

I love the look of the seat. Inside and out! Especially in orange

I saw one outside a neighbour's house and it looked a very stylish car. It is nice to see colourful cars, it makes a change from umpteen shades of a grey.

This helped me on my quest, thank you.

Seat did it for me. I drove this car in a recent holiday in malaga . I couldn't ask for more. I drove it quite a lot between Malaga , Ronda and Grenada . I returned to England and I have been looking to change my current car

I've been waiting for a comparison video like this! Glad the Seat one. I've been looking at one myself. Or a Suzuki Vitara :)

Exactly!

I would choose the Kia Stonic. I think it has better value for money. With the manual gearbox, the car will be reliable and you also benefit from a bumper-to-bumper warranty that lasts 7 years.

Had a Stonic as a rental in Iceland. Surprisingly capable, also on F roads fording streams...as a 2WD. The interior is not posh but indeed child proof and functional. I was impressed. 600 km a day, no problem. Decent conso as well.

Spent this past august researching my new car. Watched Carwow and many other reviews. Sat in and drove several models. Out of these three cars the Renault was never on my short list as I can't stand the interior looks and that's what you see while driving. So it was either the Arona or the Stonic. I ended up buying the Stonic with the 120hp petrol engine. I liked the looks of both cars equally, but the interior feel of the Stonic is miles ahead of the terrible plastics used in the Seat. There are two things I envy from the Arona though. The boot space and the visibility. It's harder to fit a bike in the Stonic than it is in the Arona, and the visibilty is not the best in the Stonic. I can't really tell where the front of the car is while parking, and the sideview is not the best either (may be I'm used to 3-door cars with big doors and the B-pillar further back). MPG could be better too. Can't compare with the Arona on this as I only tried it for some minutes. One thing that worries me in the Stonic are the lights down in the rear bumper. I fear they could be crushed by people parking without respect to other peoples cars (which Europe has plenty of). This is my first non-european car ever and I'd buy the Stonic again. Cheers from Barcelona (where the Arona is made btw).

Would be great to review the Hybrid Capture or even compare small SUV Hybrids such as Captur, Yaris Cross and Honda Jazz Cross for example

Is there any video which you have wide body cars compared ?

Just bought an Arona FR Sport, second hand. It really exceeds expectations. Fast, economical on MPG, stylish and practical. My wife says its the best looking car we've ever had. I tend to agree. Lovely to drive too, especially after my rather lumbering Ford Focus.

what motor do you get with the arona?

The middle seatbelt in the arona is not working propperly, look it up! (same in the new polo an ibiza)

I heard "tortilla pa-ta-ta" and "pimiento padrón" , lol. Great job. Hugs from Spain.

Today we booked Arona FR for my wife and I must say it is an excellent car based on test drive and quite a stiff comparison between Kamiq/i20/i30. The kit is excellent with FR model having almost everything that you need even without any significant additions 21.6k€ with very lucrative financing by VW. This is my second seat this year after Tarraco eHybrid it is a big achievement considering I am in den of Skoda and wife gets 12% corporate discount on skoda Kamiq

Do she works for these VAG criminals? Talking about awful life choices and poor ethics...

I prefer the Capturs interior but on the higher trims with contrasting colours. Also having driven one the only negative i found is the power steering at higher speeds seemed a bit resistant.

The range topping seat is fantastic to drive I have one

It's not easy to choose. I ll wait the next capture may be

The Kia Stonic wins for me. You get most for it´s value. Maybe not with 1.0 T-GDi but with 1.4 is fine, best reliability and seven years warranty. I´ve driven a Stonic and center console didn´t wobble at all. Captur is also fine but I find the interior quite weird, and unfortunately some things, especially gauge cluster and screen makes me think about cars as Renault Trafic or Dacias (except the new Duster). Arona is just a sea of cheap and scratchy plastic. The only good thing about it is practicality..

Having driven all of them the SEAT is by far the best of the three in every posible way!

I noticed something weird here. In the previous reviews the verdict for the seat arona was to consider it, while for the kia stonic to shortlist it. In this video the seat arona is the winner. What is going on?

What aboug gas mileage? Nobody mentions that. I was told today by a few different people that the Arona is special in that it gets the gas mileage around of a hybrid car. That's huge isn't it? Is it true? Before I go and plug down tons of money to buy one. Does anybody know if this is so that the Arona mileage is similar to that of a hybrid?

Maybe review Vauxhall Crossland X ?

I had a diesel Captur as a courtesy car when my Zoe was in for a service. I thought the Captur was really noisy, clunky, slow and not great to drive at all. It may just be that I'm used to how quiet and smooth an electric car is though.

Pleaseee Mat test Suzuki S-Cross 1.4 turbo manual, redesigned...

Where is the exhaust tip test?

For me, the driving position was decisive and that is why I chose Kia Stonic. Some people prefer a high driving position, while I prefer a low one. The Stonic places your backside closest to the floor and your legs stretched out straightest. I don't like sitting in a high chair for long periods of time. I feel much more comfortable in a low chair. I got into the Stonic and immediately felt that this was the car for me, the one I was looking for.
