Manufacturing & Production

The Arona is produced primarily at SEAT's main assembly complex in Martorell (Barcelona), Spain — the company's principal vehicle production site — which handles body-in-white through final assembly for the model. For certain export markets SEAT has used local Volkswagen Group assembly/CKD lines (for example final assembly operations in Algeria) to serve regional demand. (seat.com)

SEAT (Sociedad Española de Automóviles de Turismo) was established in Spain in 1950 and developed as the Spanish national carmaker. Since the late 1980s/early 1990s SEAT has been integrated into the Volkswagen Group and today operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of Volkswagen Group (Volkswagen AG), headquartered in Wolfsburg, Germany.

Summary

In short: the SEAT Arona is a B-segment subcompact crossover primarily manufactured at SEAT's Martorell plant in Spain, with selective local assembly in other markets (notably Algeria for regional supply). SEAT itself is a Spanish-born brand now owned and operated under the Volkswagen Group umbrella. (seat.com)
