Cupra Formentor Long Term Test: The BEST Family Crossover Out Now? 4K

Simple, straight forward reviews, I cant afford any of the cars you review but I enjoy watching this channels videos.

[@maestro4067]

[@MrSteve065]

Had my Formentor about 4 months now & love it, coming from an Audi SQ5 I was dubious but it has impressed me, a new SQ5 top spec would of cost nearly twice the VZ2 310 price, the infotainment screen gets easier to use with practice & voice control is a nice touch especially at night. Wake phrase is Hola Hola then say for example temperature 26⁰ & hey presto it's nice & toasty, at high speed the road noise can be a bit loud but apparently that's the Bridgestone tyres as other owners with different tyres don't seem to have that issue, using 2 fingers to tap temp slider brings heated seats on, the car has follow home lights to illuminate into corners, auto dip that can be cancelled to stay on full beam, boot release with foot waved under car, The ACC adaptive cruise control is spooky at 1st as it slows down & speeds up , it also keeps you between lines & turns by itself, spooky at high speeds, everywhere you go it turns heads & people come over to ask what is it, overall a great car that likes to be driven hard & sedately equally, a car for any mood,

Cool review, congrats for this nice car !

[@leeandjancruise]

Love my VZ2 310, mines fitted with Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres and they suit the car very well.

[@arturofernandezbarnes301]

I’ve just bought a Formentor VZ 310 AWD and I love it. I’ve driven 1000km to Switzerland with my snow tyres and I have to say I almost prefer it to our Audi Q5. The Audi is more spacious but the Formentor is definetly more fun as you can see in this video. It runs exactly as it’s describe here and it’s very confortable in long distances.

[@fl1xmeister]

I work in a SEAT&Cupra dealer and in my opinion these cars are not too bad, The majority of it's let down is the software that seems to have a lot of issues but with a lengthy update in the workshop can be fixed to go on to be a fully functioning vehicle.

Great review as always. After having my 310 for only two weeks, I agree with everything here. It looks like nothing else on the road. The auto-downshift blips are just the icing on the cake, as are the lights at night (plus I got 38mpg on a motorway trip recently).

We just got back from a 16 day tour of Europe and we rented a Formentor from Liigu there. Drove it nearly 3000 miles and there is a lot to like about that car. Firstly, I had never even heard of SEAT or Cupra OR Formentor. Had no idea what I was getting as I originally booked a Peugeot 3008, but they switched it up on me and I got the Formentor instead. So, totally new car experience. The entertainment system was a total pain to get figured out and it took over half the trip to understand it. That could definitely be improved. As for the rest of the car, the trunk (boot) had enough room but the shade was a pain so we removed it when putting bags back there as the back window isn't all that big and we needed to be able to see out so we wouldn't get rear ended on the Autobahn. But this car was NICE to drive! Loved it. We got the 4cyl turbo, so not sure where that fits in on the model scale, but it had plenty of power! It was fun to drive for sure. Handled great, great power, and the seats were amazingly comfortable. So much so that my wife and I both commented on the amount of driving we did and our backsides never hurt once. The gas mileage seemed pretty darned good as well. I really enjoyed driving it. The entertainment system, not so much. I told my wife if they had these in the States, I might consider buying one, it was that fun to drive.

[@MrMusicXXX7]

Great Car. 6 months into mine and never had so many compliments or People asking what car it is.. Like any car it has it's flaws , the biggest one for me is that the sensors are extremely sensitive especially when giving way to a car on a narrow road,it takes a good few seconds for the car to sense that the other car has already passed you and if you go almost immediately after the car passes , it auto slams the brake 🙈🙈

[@leeandjancruise]

My VZ2 310 slammed the brakes on for no apparent reason at 20mph, it's also opened the panoramic roof a couple of times, other than that it's fantastic.

[@neurotikkkkk]

[@garyhiggins4945]

A reasonably fair review, the car has some good points such as the seats (extremely comfortable) and it does look sooooo very cool (the rear lights are fantastic), the Brembo brakes are excellent but they're an upgrade, however, it's severely let down by the "everything on one screen" thing. It just doesn't work very well. For me anyhow, it completely spoils the whole experience as everything is such a faff. For people asking about Apple carplay, this works ok and it's wireless in the UK but to me, the graphics look like they're off a PC from about 10 years ago. You can't control any of the cars systems as it only mirrors what is on your phone so if you want to use Waze/Tidal etc you can do it from there, then swap back to standard screen for everything else. Anyone considering a new VW group vehicle should go for a very long test drive and play around for an hour (possibly in the dark) to ensure you can get to grips with all the crap menus. The previous generation Leon Cupra/Ateca system was so much easier operate but didn't look quite as flash. Also, the in-built safety systems are extremely intrusive, particularly the lane assist which I had to permanently disable in mine (via OBDEleven, dead easy) as it has a tendency to try and kill me every few days. There's also the annoying "double pop" through the speakers, the SOS errors, speed sign reading errors (reads kph instead of mph at times) which I can't believe you didn't experience in 6 months of running this car, pretty much everyone has, the satnav has some weirdy off road thing going on when you input a postcode, it doesn't give the the address but the coordinates, the air con is a bit flaky on mine also. There's loads more gremlins, a google search will throw them up. Performance and handling wise it's ok. Depends what you're used to. Personally, I think it could do with the ABT treatment, another 50bhp wouldn't go amiss as it's a bit of a lard arse. My older Leon 290 felt faster but things are improving now everything is loosening up. I'd describe is a "perky" lol. It goes round corners well enough for most people. Unless you're a complete twat you're never going to reach the limit of this cars ability on the public road. Economy is about what I'd expect at around 30mpg using super unleaded. Steering feedback is non existent so that's the same as 90% of every car you can buy now. Something that I've started to notice a bit more recently is that it's a bit awkward to park. I find it quite tricky to judge where the corners of car are and a spiral car park ramp has me cringing whilst worrying I'm going to kerb my alloys. Never had that feeling before and I had discovery 3/4 for 12 years, dead easy to manoeuvre those massive beasts. Maybe that's just me being a bit rubbish. Anyway, in summary, is a fully loaded VZ3 worth 45k? Nope. Would I buy another one? Nope. Would I recommend one to a mate? Nope. It's such a shame as this car could be be brilliant, instead, it's just really very annoying. Others may disagree, this is only my opinion of course :)

@@MrRedSky I've read that CUPRA hasn't escalated the infotainment problems into a ''known issue'' and I've read in the SEAT forums that the OTA software updates not always fix bugs and glitches.

@@GuyRandomOne I’d say that the rest of the car makes up for the sub par infotainment. But if it’s a deal breaker for you then maybe the A class would be a better choice for you. What I will say is though the formentor is a whole lot bigger. I thought it was gonna be hatchback on stilts size but it’s pretty much an SUV.

Thank you Rory for another very interesting video. I do like the Formentor a lot and I am considering it as my future car in the version VZ 310, which seems like a Golf R on stilts more oriented towards family usage. However, I am afraid that the boot space is still too small for holidays with a family of three (with a 7 year old). Coming from a Tiguan BiTDI and then an Allspace TDI 190, I recently got the following idea in my head: a Seat Tarraco FR 2.0 TSI 245 would cost a similar amount of money and with an ABT engine control unit would also reach 310 CP - of course would not be so dynamic on a twisty road but might fit better the family like. What is your view?

[@alanashburner8907]

Yes for your family you would be better off with the larger SUVs: Seat Tarraco or Skoda Kodiaq. If you fancy an SUV that’s little smaller than the Tarraco, or Kodiaq, then maybe the Skoda Karoq or Cupra Ateca, which are about the same size as the VW Tiguan. The Cupra Ateca has the same performance as the Formentor VZ2 but with the larger cabin and boot. When I visited my local Seat/Cupra dealership I was amazed just how comfortable the Cupra Ateca was. I now own a Formentor VZ2 and it is noticeably smaller than the Kodiaq I used to own. Does that help?

[@stefanalexandru3530]

@@alanashburner8907 Yes, this helps, thank you. I was also considering Cupra Ateca, indeed is not so attractive as design, but probably is more practical than the Formentor, at least in terms of boot.

I know what you mean. Thing is BMW's are known for their poor engines, as are Audi. The amount of BM's and Audi's for sale with blown engines and they're just out of warranty. And Range Rovers are worthless after a few years.

@@bryanhood4067 I’ve ever had any issues but I’ve never owned one outside it’s manufacturer warranty period. I went to look at a Formentor and couldn’t believe how small it was in person so it was ruled out. I’ve since ordered an Audi which I’m waiting on delivery of.

Kudos for saying "Ibiza" properly.

ordered the VZ hybrid in April this year... unfortunately the delivery takes very very long at the moment due to the pandemic and the semiconductor crisis

Knob gang, I bloody love a good knob. Can't go wrong with a few knobs in hand

[@Nialsy999]

Not sure about the colour of this car...but what a lovely looking car. Seems like a goldie locks car.

[@mha2263]

Great review, looking forward to test driving this and the hybrid version soon

[@rbjstudio]

Cool video, feels honest and you look super happy with it, yeap, mine arrives at the end of this month , cant wait, nice upgrade from my cx5 mazda 2018 Yeah I know…..

[@tomkinross7213]

Could just be me,.but those seats look a lot like proper gaming seats..& if you want to know about long haul comfort while thrashing about..it makes exponentially more sense. After watching the Kona vid I can't see how one could want something else!

[@tomkinross7213]

It's VAG without being one...

[@BoxBoxBoxGaming]

I want Cupra in the US desperately!

[@octogonpc]

A great car, not in the US? Just our luck...Go figure. After seeing it here and the website, it's an SUV I'd really consider owning!

[@turbo3492]

Yeah,nice car but it would be nice if reviewers could mention running costs i,e servicing costs.This would be good for people on a fixed budget!!

[@rajchoudhury5130]

had one of these. perfect car end of
