In their own words

So I've owned two Seat Ateca's so far. I've had the 190ps petrol and diesel in DSG. Both have been trouble free. I really can't complain about this SUV. The practically is great and it's so comfortable, especially on long distances. The seats cater for my big legs in respect of width. Paired with the heated element, it is awesome! The car has a large boot and easy to fold the rear seats down. 475 L with the AWD model is more that enough for me. You get more with the 2WD option. I've had no rattles from a cabin. The Ateca has harder sportier suspension, and is easy to fire in and out of bends, if that's your thing! On the other side it also gives you loads of confidence. MPG can be as low at 25 or as high as 40, this is all depending on driving in Eco mode where the gear disengages and you coast, or in sport which hold a lower gear for longer. You'll find the throttle pedal will be very unresponsive in Eco mode however. If you are into your technology, you can use an OBD tool and change the throttle response, which has improved the car loads in my opinion.
