Cupra Formentor 2025 review: Cupra's best seller just got better
Cupra Formentor review, prices, specs
From the entry-level, £27k petrol V1…
to PHEV and 306bhp 4wd flagship
The Formentor is the car that made sense of the Cupra brand. Previously a slightly confusing Seat spin-off, everything came into focus with the arrival in 2020 of Cupra’s first standalone product, not based on a Seat or heavily indebted to any other VW Group product.
It captured the zeitgeist with its vogueish coupe-SUV styling, and stood out from other coupe-SUVs by driving well, with a decent choice of powertrains, and looking good.
The copper-coloured detailing and the demonic logo may have been good talking points, but it’s the mix of practicality, style and performance, with a slightly upmarket image but a decent price, that’s made the Formentor Cupra’s global top-seller, with a lot of appeal among younger buyers.
At a glance
And now it’s been given a refresh that’s a combination of slightly tweaked styling, the latest VW infotainment and a revised engine range.
Pros Choice of good engines; decent handling; usefully roomy
Cons Infotainment still leaves room for improvement; divisive looks; artificial feel
What’s new?
The nose of the Formentor is now more angular and sharky as part of a front-end redesign that keeps the same overall idea but tightens everything up and aligns it more closely with the electric Born and Tavascan. There are new air intakes, the badge has moved from the grille to the bonnet and the lights have a three-triangle motif that Cupra insists on calling ‘trimensional’.
There are reshaped body sides, and at the back the model name is now in lights and the old badge/boot opener has now been replaced by an illuminated Cupra logo. There are new body colours and wheel designs too.
What are the specs?
The UK gets seven engine choices for the Formentor. The entry-level unit is the latest revision of VW’s excellent 1.5-litre TSI petrol four-cylinder, making 148bhp and driving the front wheels via a six-speed manual gearbox. There’s also a 201bhp 2.0-litre TSI with all-wheel drive and a seven-speed DSG dual-clutch auto.
There’s a new eTSI mild-hybrid version of the DSG front-drive 1.5-litre, bringing 48-volt assistance for greater efficiency and smooth running. There are two ‘eHybrid’ plug-in-hybrid Formentors, both using that 1.5 engine, now with a 19.7kWh (net) battery. One makes 201bhp, the other 268bhp. Claimed electric-only range is now up to 72 miles.
There are two hotter VZ versions, one making 262bhp and the other combining peak output of 329bhp with an electro-hydraulic torque splitter, involving two clutches on the rear axle, that precisely delivers torque to the rear wheels during hard cornering. It also has recalibrated gearchange and accelerator action and upgraded brakes.
