A hard ride with a lot of tyre noise and it was hard to keep the car straight on a potholed road. Very unimpressed by the combination of automatic gearbox and stop/start as these two seemed to fight each other at almost every junction or roundabout, with the engine shuddering to a stop then immediately re-starting. A pity as my old Seat Alhambra is a dream to drive and has been faultless over the last 6 years,

Seat Ateca (2016-present) Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Well equipped | Warranty protection not as long as for Kia or Hyundai |
| Fun to drive | Base 1.0-litre petrol engine can be a bit breathless |
| Spacious for people and luggage | Ride firmer than with some rivals |
Quick Summary
The Seat Ateca (2016-present) is Seat's take on the Volkswagen Tiguan and shares major components with this important rival and the Skoda Karoq. Marketed as the sporty choice within the Volkswagen Group, the Ateca features sharper styling and an edgier driving experience. With a competitive 510-litre boot (485 litres for four-wheel drive versions) and comfortable seating for five, it offers practical family transport. The interior is well-equipped, with even base models featuring automatic city braking and pedestrian detection as standard, whilst higher trims include climate control, touchscreen infotainment with satnav, DAB radio, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Blessed with spirited performance from turbocharged diesel and petrol engines, the Ateca feels neither underpowered nor out of its depth on the motorway. It's one of the best-handling cars of its type, with excellent grip, traction and sharp steering, though the ride is slightly firmer than some rivals. Fuel economy is respectable, with the 1.6 TDI Ecomotive diesel achieving around 65.7mpg and the 1.4 TSI petrol around 52.3mpg. Running costs are reasonable, with fixed-price servicing from £175 for minor services. The Ateca earned a five-star EuroNCAP safety rating and was named overall Car of the Year in the 2019 CarGurus Best Used Car Awards.
Best for: Buyers seeking a stylish, well-equipped mid-size SUV that's fun to drive, spacious and economical, with strong safety credentials and reliable Volkswagen Group engineering.
Not ideal for: Those prioritising the longest warranty protection (Korean rivals offer longer coverage) or seeking the softest ride quality, or those requiring maximum boot versatility.

| Nissan Qashqai | 4/5 | 4.6/5 | 39.2% | 4.5/5 |
The Verdict
You should buy the Ateca if: You're seeking a stylish, well-equipped mid-size SUV that's fun to drive, spacious and economical, with strong safety credentials and reliable Volkswagen Group engineering.
Consider alternatives if: You prioritise the longest warranty protection, seek the softest ride quality, or require maximum boot versatility with removable rear seats.
Competitive Position: The Seat Ateca (2016-present) is a strong contender in the mid-size SUV market, offering excellent styling, engaging driving dynamics and practical family transport. Whilst the Volkswagen Tiguan and Skoda Karoq edge ahead on expert ratings and value scores, the Ateca remains a compelling choice for buyers wanting a fun-to-drive SUV with good equipment levels and reasonable running costs. Its five-star EuroNCAP safety rating and Car of the Year accolade demonstrate its quality and appeal. High resale values reflect its popularity, so finding a bargain requires diligent hunting, but the effort is worthwhile for one of the best mid-size SUVs available.
