REVIEW
SEAT IBIZA & ARONA
genuinely enough for a week’s shopping
and a small existential crisis.
Rear space is fine unless your friends
play rugby, and the cabin feels airy
thanks to generous glass.
Insurance starts around group 8
for the 95-horsepower model, which
is gentle on the wallet. CO2 emissions
are between 120 and 125 grams per
kilometre depending on gearbox choice,
and real-world economy hovers in
the low 50s if you drive sensibly. A full
tank of its 40-litre fuel capacity will
take you roughly 450 miles before the
light comes on.
The SEAT Ibiza isn’t revolutionary. It’s
not trying to be. What it is, though, is a
refreshing reminder that simple can still
be satisfying. In a world obsessed with
touchscreen dashboards, hybrid badges
and SUV coupes, the Ibiza is delightfully
old-school. It’s light, lively, affordable,
and just a little bit mischievous. It’s the
small car that grew up but didn’t forget
how to have fun.
