Compare the Hyundai Bayon vs SEAT Arona
AI generated from our expert reviews
Both of these small crossovers feature firm suspension setups that keep body lean to a minimum through bends, though both can also crash over bigger bumps and potholes. Inside, each cabin suffers from hard, scratchy plastics. If you carry passengers, the Hyundai Bayon provides adults with a healthy amount of legroom, whereas rear legroom in the SEAT Arona is tight. When tackling country lanes, the Arona gives you a good feel through the steering for how much grip remains around bends, while the Bayon’s light steering leaves you with no real idea of available grip. For practical duties, the Arona can tow more than the Bayon.
