Question 1

Which engine is best in a used Cupra Formentor?

Accepted Answer

The 150PS 1.5 TSI suits most drivers and costs least to run. The e-Hybrid makes sense if you can charge at home and drive short distances, and the 2.0 TSI VZ with 4Drive is the choice for performance.

Question 2

What changed with the 2024 Cupra Formentor facelift?

Accepted Answer

A new front end, and the 1.4 e-Hybrid with 204 or 245PS gave way to a 1.5 e-Hybrid with 204 or 272PS and a larger battery for a much longer electric range. The 2.0 TSI rose from 310 to 333PS.

Question 3

What is the Cupra Formentor VZ5?

Accepted Answer

The flagship Formentor, with a 2.5-litre five-cylinder turbo petrol related to Audi's, producing 390PS through a DSG and 4Drive all-wheel drive. It is far rarer than the 2.0 TSI VZ.

Question 4

How much is road tax on a used Cupra Formentor?

Accepted Answer

Every Formentor pays £200 a year, plus a £440 supplement in years 2 to 6 if its list price was over £40,000. Check the list price of a VZ or VZ5, which can cross that line.

Question 5

What engines does the new Cupra Formentor have?

Accepted Answer

A 150PS 1.5 TSI with a manual gearbox or as a DSG eTSI mild hybrid, the 1.5 e-Hybrid plug-in with 204 or 272PS, a 333PS 2.0 TSI and the 390PS VZ5, the last two with 4Drive. Trims run V1, V2, VZ and VZ5.
