CUPRA Formentor Interior
The Formentor benefits from the latest technology being used across the Volkswagen Group, which means that the cabin is dominated by screens and displays. However, the basics have been covered off well too, with good storage up front and a relatively spacious rear seating area. A range of copper-coloured elements - a CUPRA hallmark - help to brighten up the cabin even further too.
When it comes to boot space, there’s 450 litres available in front-wheel-drive versions, though all-wheel-drive variants bring a still-respectable 420 litres.
A new era of design, power and sustainability
The New CUPRA Formentor is a hybrid of high-performance and impressive design with an environmentally conscious approach. This vehicle marries aesthetic appeal with functionality, making it a true CUPRA masterpiece.
Unveiling an innovative exterior design language, the Formentor sets new standards with a shark-nose front end, advanced LED headlights, and a bold CUPRA logo at the center of the rear light.
Step inside the Formentor and you'll experience a new level of luxury. With a newly redesigned interior featuring a high-quality center console, door panels, and dashboard, this vehicle doesn’t just look incredible – it feels incredible too. Sustainability is key, with seating options incorporating 73% recycled microfibres or eco-conscious leather.
CUPRA Formentor Exterior
The exterior design of the Formentor has been designed to stand out from the crowd and it certainly achieves that. The front grille’s intricate design gives it a premium appeal, while the copper-coloured CUPRA badge sits loud and proud in front of it. Around the back it’s the single-piece rear light that’ll likely attract attention, linking together the two LED tail lights. It’s a clever design, toeing the line in between a hatchback and SUV well. Its athletic proportions are accentuated by eight different alloy wheel options, and the rear design features coast-to-coast taillights integrated with the illuminated CUPRA logo. Choose from eight different signature colours, including the new and exclusive Century Bronze Matte and Enceladus Grey Matte.
What Technology does the CUPRA Formentor come with?
As we’ve already mentioned, the Formentor is practically bristling with equipment. You get a huge 12-inch central touchscreen and it’s here that you’ll access key media and satellite navigation functions, as well as the heating and ventilation controls. You get wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto too, which makes integrating your smartphone into the car’s system even easier.
There’s a configurable screen ahead of the driver too, replacing the conventional dials. These are really clear and easy to read and can be used to display all manner of readouts.
What Performance can I expect on the CUPRA Formentor?
If you’re after performance, you’re unlikely to be disappointed by the Formentor. Range-topping cars boast a powerful turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol engine with 306bhp and 400 Nm of torque, enabling a 0-60mph time of 4.9 seconds. It’s all-wheel-drive too, so you get great traction even in poor conditions.
However, if you’re wanting something a little greener, there’s also a plug-in hybrid variant alongside less-powerful petrol engines which offer 34 miles of electric range and focus more on lower running costs.
Powertrain
Designed to merge the performance of both the combustion and electrified powertrains, the New CUPRA Formentor is available with a wide range of powertrains, including TSI (petrol), eTSI (mild hybrid), TDI (diesel), and a new generation of eHybrid engines (plug-in hybrid).
At the top of the line-up is the Formentor VZ variants. These high-performance versions, powered with either 265PS or 333PS, come with features like a drive mode calibrated for racetrack by CUPRA engineers, torque splitter technology, and optional Akebono brakes for a truly exhilarating driving experience. For those who prefer a greener option, the eTSI and eHybrid versions offer not only increased efficiency but also smoother ignition and overall improved comfort.
The new generation of plug-in hybrid powertrain proves that electrification and performance can go hand in hand. With a pure electric range of more than 100km, these versions are as eco-conscious as they are exciting. Experience the perfect blend of sporty design, powerful performance, and sustainable technology with the New CUPRA Formentor.

What is it?
CUPRA has been starting to make a name for itself since splitting apart from Seat to become its own thing back in 2018. It’s largely managed by making go-faster versions of the Spanish firm’s existing models - up until now, that is.
The Formentor - which we’re looking at today - is the first car that CUPRA has had a proper hand in creating from the ground-up, making it a great showcase of what the firm can do. But what does it offer? Let’s find out.
What’s new?
CUPRA’s access to the wider Volkswagen Group means that it’s got a great backing of technology and powertrains to make the most of. The Formentor sits on the MQB Evo platform that underpins the latest Golf, for instance, while the car’s engine has already found favour in cars like the T-Roc R. However, CUPRA has been allowed to show real flair with both the interior and exterior - but we’ll get to those in more detail shortly.
What’s under the bonnet?
This CUPRA uses a turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol engine with 306bhp and 400Nm of torque. The Formentor is available with a variety of less powerful petrol engines - as well as a plug-in hybrid - though for the minute this 2.0-litre TSI petrol is the most potent version you can get. It’ll only be topped by the limited-edition 2.5-litre-powered version, though this will only be available in left-hand-drive. This engine powers the Formentor from 0-60mph in 4.7 seconds and onwards to a top speed of 155mph. CUPRA also says it’ll return up to 33.2mpg with CO2 emissions of 193g/km.
What’s it like inside?
The interior of the Formentor benefits from Volkswagen Group’s latest architecture, which means that it’s knee-deep in the very sharpest tech. However, the key basics have been covered off as well; it’s spacious up front, while there’s a surprising amount of head- and legroom for those sitting in the back. There’s also 420 litres of boot space on offer, though you can increase this by lowering the rear seats flat, too.
What’s the spec like?
Standard equipment for the Formentor is very good, with the car’s huge twelve-inch central screen making up the bulk of the tech offerings. Nearly all of the car’s functions are located here, which does mean it can take a little bit of getting used to. ‘Our’ car was in VZ2 specification, which brought features such as a heated steering wheel and electrically-adjustable driver’s seat as standard. That said, even on entry-level Formentor models the kit levels are good, with highlights including three-zone air conditioning, LED headlights and wireless phone charging - among other features.
Verdict
CUPRA has really shown that it’s able to do with the new Formentor. It’s a great example of what can happen when it’s allowed to dictate what a car looks, feels and drives like. However, it also benefits from the backing of Volkswagen Group-sourced knowhow. This is a car that really does add some extra sparkle to daily drives and helps to give an idea of what we can look forward to seeing from CUPRA in the future.
