Off the back of the Paris show,reviews are trickling through.Apart from the badging and bronze colouring,I quite like it.Will be interesting to see how it’s pitched,price wise.

I like the look of that, even the bronze bits. We are changing our Leon Cupra for an Ateca as we need the space so this is the best of both worlds. Badge makes it look like some sort of Chinese copy at first glance though!

Saw it in the flesh at Geneva back in March. Wanted to like it but the stick on go faster bits just look tacky, and thats before you even look at the badge hurl

I like the look of the higher spec non-fr atecas, but the FR and Cupra just look a bit try hard.

I think the Audi SQ2 looks more interesting myself, slightly smaller but serious performance and should be priced similarly

Had a look at the SQ2.Performance wise it’s pretty much identical,as the both use the EA888 but I just don’t know what it’s purpose is.
It’s good that high performance alternatives exist and im sure that the cabin will be the usual Audi quality,but I need the versatility of the larger vehicle and the Ateca appears to capture this.
Will be good to see how they both develop.
