This mysterious beast is actually unfamiliar to most of us. Seat is one of the underrated brands that are part of the VAG group. However, the Seat Arona is worth a look because it has all the charms of the VW T-Cross, but looks a little more modest and offers limited versions and an outdated MPI engine.
However, this is exactly what makes it attractive, as its reliability far outweighs the turbocharged «pumped» versions. The crossover handles crisply and can only lose in the suspension settings, which are quite stiff. But it definitely worth a look and a test drive.

The new crossover with the Jeep nameplate doesn’t quite live up to its status. The new Jeep Avenger looks too dressed up, the size of a pony, and the color scheme is too bright. But this baby wears the badge with dignity, even though its heart is not American at all, nor is its design.
But it has enough advantages. The Jeep Avenger has a not so modest space and can easily accommodate a family even with suitcases, is easy and fun to drive, and has low fuel consumption. I want to drive it here. All the details read in our test.
