The SEAT Arona is a small crossover SUV produced by the Spanish manufacturer since 2017. It’s the smallest SUV offered by the brand with petrol and diesel engines. In this guide, you’ll discover the key facts about insuring the SEAT Arona, including how to reduce the cost of your premiums.
SEAT Arona insurance groups and cost by driver’s age
SEAT Arona models range from insurance groups 8 to 18, so although you can expect the cost of your insurance to be on the cheaper end of the scale, it might vary quite a bit between different insurance groups. Factors such as the market value of the vehicle, the safety and security features and the vehicle’s engine size help determine which insurance group the specific model should be placed in.
For example, a 30-year-old driver in an average postcode could pay around £562 for cover on a SEAT Arona 1.0 TSI SE 5d (insurance group 8), or around £613 for a SEAT Arona FR Sport 1.5 TSI EVO 150PS 5d which falls in insurance group 18.

SEAT Arona insurance cost by location
The table above shows the average cost of SEAT Arona insurance based on insurance groups and driver age. However, a number of other factors can affect the cost of your car insurance premiums, one of the biggest being your location.
To show how much your location can impact your premium, here are some average quotes for a 30-year-old living in three different locations. The quotes are for a SEAT Arona SE 1.0 TSI 115PS 5d.
- Expensive: £1,190 (London SE1)
- Average: £688 (Newcastle NE1)
- Cheap: £644.38 (Galashiels TD1)
Which factors affect my insurance rate?
Along with the insurance group, there are other key factors that impact your insurance premium costs:
- Engine type and capacity. As a general rule of thumb, the bigger the engine capacity, the more you will pay for your car insurance. An average 30-year-old may pay £562 for the 1.0-litre SEAT Arona SE Technology 1.0 TSI 95PS 5d, but could pay around £613 for the 1.5-litre SEAT Arona FR Sport 1.5 TSI Evo 150PS (07/2018 on) 5d. In this example, the model that has an engine size 0.6 litres bigger is £107 more expensive to insure.
- Driver location. Your home address helps determine the level of risk that your car may be stolen or you’ll be involved in an accident, and this affects the cost of insurance. For example, a 30-year-old in central London may pay £1,190 for insurance for a SEAT Arona SE 1.0 TSI 115PS 5d, while the same 30-year-old in Newcastle may only pay £688.
- Driver age. Younger drivers are statistically more likely to be involved in accidents than older, more experienced drivers. As a result, the younger you are, the more risk you represent to insurers, and the more you’re likely to pay for insurance. The average 20-year-old driver in London may pay £4,296 for the SEAT Arona Xcellence Lux 1.6 TDI 95PS 5d, while the average 40-year-old Londoner will only pay £820.
Other factors that influence the cost of your insurance include:
- Your marital status
- Your credit history
- Your job/industry you work in
- Your car’s safety features and overall score
- The model of your car
- How old your car is
- Your car’s security and any extra anti-theft precautions
- Annual miles driven
- Your class of use
- Your driving history and activity
- No claim discount
