5 Things I LOVE & HATE About The Cupra Formentor | 2022 Cupra Formentor Review

After living with the Cupra Formentor for a week, I really got to grips with the things I loved and the things I didn't love so much...but which one came out on top???

I have a Formentor 310ps in Graphene Grey too. What a car! Perhaps the most versatile car I've ever owned. Does everything; fast, 4x4, comfortable, fits 5 nicely, has the new mod cons and useful stuff (wireless Apple Car play, adaptive suspension, interior LED and coast to coast back strip lighting, Beats Audio, electric sunroof, nice loud exhaust). SUPERB!

We don't get these in Australia so it's super-interesting to see what they're like! Thank you 🙏

I’m here as an American after hearing that Cupra is considering entering the North American market. I’m excited for this company to come stateside if they bring ICE cars.

I have this car in magnetic grey, love it, while I agree with her 5 likes I think her 5 dislikes were made up just for the sake of a comparison, if you want style then expect some compromise on boot space, if you want a performance car then don't expect the economy of a diesel engine car.
Also she failed to mention the infotainment system that is good but also bad as it sometimes has a mind of it's own, owner's know what I mean, then there's the 'road tax', at over £500, ouch.

Adaptive Cruise control doesn't work when the front sensor is in heavy rain ( or snow) etc.

I think Cupra should have made the VZ5 in RHD format. That way, they would have brought it to the UK and probably Australia too.

The Formentor VZ5 is another car that is on my wishlist for cars I want in the UK; others being the Toyota GR Corolla, Hyundai Elantra N, etc.

The Cupra what !! I drive a FORMENTOR not a formendor 😅😅

[eymenisguder]

i think its a nice suv but I have a question about the engine 2.0 tsi they have an oil reduction problem for years, some vehicles have had an oil reduction problem after certain kilometers and some vehicles have it even if they are brand new model. if this is the same engine, I wonder if this problem continues in this vehicle. That's my only concern, because the brand booklet has such ingredients for fat /oil reduction that you can't justify it. If anyone knows or you answer, I will be very glad, thank you in advance🙏🏻

My drive mode is individual everything on Cupra except engine sound, I keep that on pure none of that fake sound

[zizou]

Jesus Christ, your favourite is the heated steering wheel in a performance SUV. You get that in a Vauxhall Corsa!

[acptelford]

I’ve done 6000 miles in mine. The bottom line is… style over substance. If you like fake plastic moulded exhaust pipes, it’s the car for you.

[nilsneimanis]

you just complained about the price? show me another new car for lower price with 310hp

[Timelapforfun]

Love... much better perfomance car then golf r, predictive drive, drift mode, pops and bang serial, dsg top gearbox
Hate... no ambilight on rear doors, no engine cover lifter, consuption too big for 310ps, climate control throw infotainent✌️

[aaronsmith]

As soon as you said Formendor, you lost me.

Tenho um Cupra formentor 1.5 tsi. Novo
O carro tem um barulho na caixa de velocidades que é bastante desconfortável.
Parece algo solto, um tilintar.
Fui á Cupra e disseram que era mesmo assim, que era da caixa que foi montada nesta gama..
Não pode ser

You can actually turn off that fake engine noise even in cupra mode, just use the individual settings mode and wack everything in cupra mode apart from engine note, also for a stock gpf exhaust system the pops and bangs in this thing when you down shift are loud Also the lack of engine cover on 2022+ is a disgrace. Shame on vag for that nonsense.
I also don't like the gear ratios in this, i get that it will be different than something like a leon 290, but third gear just doesn't last long enough for me, it should last go until at least 95-105mph
