    the title/thumbnail is technically wrong and also at 1:09, the T-Roc is sitting on the old MQB-A1 platform while the Formentor is on MQB evo, so they are not twins, the third generation Tiguan would be the real twin😅

      it's not the same base platform, the only thing that they have in common is the "MQB" name, fwd architecture and some engines, they are even shared on MLB. the real twins of the T-Roc are the Škoda Karoq and Seat Ateca!

    I'm not sure if I like it or not. I feel like pre-facelift looked more angry, more BMW kinda way. This looks like Honda/Kia/Hyundai
    They kept front fog lights which is quite distinctive on Formentor
    Rear logo really didn't need to be illuminated. Pre-facelift rear turn signals looked cooler
    Thank god for actual buttons on steering wheel.
    I just hope infotainment system isn't still bugged like on current cars
    I really hope they stick 5 cylinder again in it. Audi (VAG) needs to keep 5 cylinder alive as long as possible

    The new Formentor looks great and I might consider chosing it when I replace my Ateca in the future.

    Helpful video. In reality, the face-lift seems fairly minimal. Granted the front is changed, but side profile and interior looks much the same. Welcome upgrade on PHEV engine, battery & charging, though probably not quite far enough. Tweaks, rather than major changes.

    • @mihnealazar7039
      @mihnealazar7039 21 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Well facelifts generally only change "plastic parts", headlights, taillights, front bumper, rear bumper. That's the whole point. Changing the side would be much more expensive. As far as facelifts go I'd say this is middle grounds since the entire front is changed. Audi for examples has actual minimal facelifts, just look at the 2019 A6 and 2024 A6. They only changed the grille and front bumper a bit.

    I got mine at the start of production in 2021 so I believe I got a good deal then. I don't know if I would pay some 10k more now.. even with the upgrades.
    Apart from the matrix LEDs, which were not available when I ordered mine, I wouldn't say there's any significant upgrade that I'm missing or that would have me want it.
    Honestly, my only complaint with the current generation is the cupholders, which were not even upgraded in the new model 😅

    Hardly anyone buys Cupra in Australia. I think because it is a new brand at a fairly high price point. There are literally only 24 Formentors advertised on Australia’s largest car sales website including new and used. I am interested to know if the quality stack up to the price? I like the brand and formentor styling but unsure if they are worth the money vs VW or Skoda.

    I don’t hate the new design but they made something’s worse like the cubbies left and right of the gear selector being much smaller (current right one is the perfect size for a 6.1 inch screen iphone - I don’t have the wireless charger, which at least in this version is cooled). Also they lost the levers to lower the rear seats for some reason. The rear doors still look really cheap, they could have at least added ambient lighting…

    You can tell they have really identified their target audience when you see that they spent money on designing triangles on the bottom part of the door cards but they didnt include felt inside of the bottle holders.

      Cupra is a sub brand to Seat. Originally hot Seat's came with a Cupra badge ( you also had FR as well which were not as quick ). VW decided to have Cupra go it alone. A little like Toyota and Lexus but Cupra is sold as a young, sporty brand rather than luxury. Apparently it's gone well enough that the VW group are looking to keep Cupra but potentially drop Seat completely in the not too distant future. You could still purchase FR model Seat's but they are the equivalent of N Line at Hyundai ( bodywork without the engineering to back it up ).

  • @krane15
    @krane15 21 วันที่ผ่านมา

    It never fails. Every time I think I like a car from the VW Group you get to the infotainment and those annoying sliders begin to turn me away. Can't they just put bottoms and a physical slider. If they only designed it with a face plate I could replace it with something from the aftermarket similar to a light switch. Pity since Cupra's animation is one of the best I've seen yet. Although I still think the screen is mounted too high.
    Very nicely designed steering when with real buttons. Tasteful if not head turning. Wish there were a powered option. On the negative side, I really can't express how much I hate seat with integrated headrests. Its such a pretentious addition to a family SUV. Even a sporty one. Go for an 8 hour cross-country trip and you will long for more adjustments. The hard touch injection molded plastic in the rear is a let down. That's always the instant give away to an economy product.
    As far as exterior design goes, the Korean still have the advantage with their under spoiler wiper design, and rear view mirror camera. The wheels aren't ugly (like all EVs except Tesla), but they are of neutral styling.
    The package shelf that can't be stored away in the car is just a poor design. There's sufficient knee room in the rear -- even for long-legged Thomas -- but the seat cushion are short and low. Of course its a compact and a higher seat would eat into the head room.
    Exterior lighting, on the other hand, is tasteful without being gaudy or ostentatious (Do the rear window go all the way down?) I love the super-formed sheet metal and the hip creases on the rare finder. A very masculine design.
