2021 Seat Tarraco review – a better 7-seat SUV than the Peugeot 5008? | What Car?

There's a lot to like about the Seat Tarraco. It’s enjoyable to drive, generously equipped, and one of the safest cars in its class, but is it as versatile as the very best large SUVs like our reigning Large SUV of the Year, the Peugeot 5008? Watch this in-depth review to find out.

I prefer WhatCar reviews.
Very honest, unbiased and to the point.
Rebecca and Doug show that you don't need ridiculous antics to make a car review interesting.

A £30k automobile has been upstaged...by a pair of trousers.

Good review, points to note are the Peugeot is not available with a four wheel drive system and if you want DSG to change down more swiftly you can select sport mode.

Good to have you back love your car reviews Rebecca, this is another nice looking Seat car, I’ve owned Seat cars for over 10 years and they are very reliable! Great review 👍💚

I have my seat TARRACO excellence 2.0 Diesel 150ps color indium grey I’m so happy for my car💫❤️

She is a race car driver or something like that or used to be.

It is very, cool to see how a relatively super linear power delivery can confuse even experts.


Just saw the numbers of local press for the 1.2 130 3008 vs 1.5 tsi tarraco.


The 3008 is 0, 5 seconds slower to 62.

2 seconds slower for a mm vs the seat.

And it is half or more class slower for in gear acceleration.

There is NO denying that the 1.5 tsi is faster. Even if it feels slower to the woman reviewer here.

With those yellow pants I was expecting a banana in the storage box. For the first time in my life I am jealous of a steering wheel and a gear stick of a car.

I like your videos. First, you make very professional videos and its very good instructed. Second, you look so gorgeous, especially in your black blouse and the yellow trousers. You look so elegant in the trousers and the black blouse is also nice.
One question is, does the car has seatbelt control sensors in the back? My aunt sits in the back and she hate the seat belt chime. Thanks for answering!😀

[PeterEurope]

In those pants Rebecca looks at least 5'8".

[MG-cedx]

Nice car but..Jeez, I see Rebecca, I press like ..she is sweet ❤

[Neil]

I love my 5008 2019 but I’m going to look at one of these as it looks pretty good

[swizzler]

When comparing other 7 seat SUV's sold in the UK in the same price bracket, both the Skoda Kodiak and Peugeot 5008 are always mentioned as competitors. But why are the Kia Sorento and stable mate Hyundai Sante Fe never mentioned? Both are 7 seat SUV's, in a similar price range, sold in the UK. Can What Car give me an answer to this?

The design is interesting.
The black buttons on the banana pants are a good design feature as the give a slightly false impression of a narrower waist.

[Epistemophilos]

Good review. Would have been better with 90% less music.

[Sherukka]

It is quite noticeable that the cost-cutting after dieselgate has struck VW Group hard and also Seat.

[Firemarioflower]

Those unaborted rearlights are really a bit of a classic, nice to see them back. It reminds me of an old Ibiza

[unclsam]

Please mention in gear accelerations also

[fachadolid]

Not quite as agile as an ateca ? Maybe its half the size 🤪

[oopscanada]

Very nice presentation; thanks Rebecca.

Hi I am buying the 2.0L diesel auto with the dsg gear box at the end of this week. I have been told it is the fr sport spec and google says it is the xcellence lux edition. Will this come with the panoramic roof automatically?
