As always, great video, Tish! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Cupra should be sold in the US, and I think the Formentor would do very well here, especially in the 5 cylinder VZ5 trim level. Digital climate controls should be a crime; it’s the dumbest fad in the auto industry right now in my opinion. Hopefully I’ll get to try out a Cupra brand product one day! P.S. - the Defender at the 8:00 mark!
Love that grey/anthracite colour. Especially with the copper/bronze accents and badging. Styling wise for an SUV i like that it is more striking than others on the market. They all seem to have started looking samey. Great job on the video and review tish 🙌🏻
It was a beautiful combo! Hannah had the matte petrol blue and that looked amazing although she found issue with it that she highlights in her video! Thank you for watching - glad you liked it
Great review. Shame that nobody seems to do a genuine soundclip of the Cupra hybrids from both outside and inside - havent had the chance to drive one yet, and the people chosing Cupras like the Formentor are probably going to be dads or moms with a love for the aggressive look and some music from the engine - at the same time, being able to go electric will help persuade the wife/ husband :D ..
I will be honest, I followed my friend in the 300bhp car and that sounds ALOT better than the hybrid. The hybrid, even when in sport didn't produce the best sound!
I have seen several of these in MEXICO CITY... Beautiful car in person! Such a presence and stance. I wonder if I could sneak one across the border to ARIZONA in the states. :(
The Cupra Formentor hybrid goes in uncool. Most hybrids go in uncool, with some exceptions. Even cars with fake exhausts go in uncool, including the Audi S6. The worst culprit for fake exhausts is the VW Group, no denying it.
@@AutoSocialUK Yes. The copper is nice. It would be nice though if the interior is more distinctive. Not just from the aesthetic angle but have different or more functionality to the other cars in the vag group. Looking a little generic. Still want one🤫😊
Looks like the car for me as my diesel insignia is retiring next year - however in the republic this model is €56k even before leather seats are added 😭 still it’s this or the new born , the look is striking
Another great review, serious knowledge and consciousness of what people actually want to know. But I can't help being creeped out by the way you slowly approach the camera....🤣
Very nice video, Tish! I love this car, but I'm not quite sure which version to buy. I do about 20.000 miles a year and want to keep running costs low. So probably one of the PHEVs or even a diesel? Do you think a Formentor diesel would be ok or an absolute no no? Thanks.
They don’t sell a Formentor diesel. Only a 1.5 TSI with 150 horsepower, a 1.4 PHEV with 245 horsepower (shown in this video), a 2.0 litre TSI with 190 or 310 horsepower (shown in the previous video) or a 2.5 litre 5-cylinder with 400 horsepower.
@@DaveDVideoMaker Don't be so sure sir! Where I come from they sell all the versions you mentioned plus a PHEV with 204 HP, a 2.0 TSI with 245 HP and a 2.0 TDI with 150 HP, either with a manual gearbox or a 7-speed DSG combined with 4WD.
I would still 100% say that as a 20K a year driver a Diesel would be the best option at keeping running costs low! If there is a Diesel Formentor I can imagine it is very good as VAG group always made great Diesel cars!
Driven 5000 miles in mine. Only 38mpg. Style over substance. The worst of both worlds. Useless battery range, useless petrol range. If false plastic moulded exhausts impress you, you deserve this.
Hi Robert, I think there might still be the very few hybrids being built but probably not many. Suzuki no doubt!! Who knows how things will pan out. Fully electric still seems impossible right now.
Good day , i want to see a car that doesn't suit you. I searched your channel and did not find it 🌼 thanks for the good review and for the details. Good look
Another amazing review here! I absolutely agree with you about the qualities and negatives of the E-Hybrid Formentor! It looks so impressive and quite formidable! Keep up the terrific hard work you're putting in, week in & week out! Can't wait already for the next review dropping! 👏🏻👍🏻

Good review with constructive negatives. A bit Dad car but a review of top spec Skoda Superb Estate vs SUV would be a great comparison as I don’t think people realise just how enormous inside the Superb is.
No such thing as best plug in hybrid. Got a VZ1 245 and it's pathetic. I do 40k a year and it's the worst company hack I've ever had the displeasure of having to drive.

So glad you started correcting yourself. From formenTAR to formentor

You are the best car reviewer, to be honest. You mention all the key points. Looking forward to you reviewing the 310 PS version.
Why plastic tail pipes? Because it's only a 1.4ltr engine ffs.

Yes VW Group are ruining cars with fake exhausts.... it's a shame.
They need to sell the Formentor in the states.
Great video. I agree. I would go for the bigger 300bhp version. Lovely looking cars. Just the interior is a little dull
Hmmm yes a little full but still nicer than some of the other VW group interiors I think. I’m a big fan of the copper
@@AutoSocialUK Yes. The copper is nice. It would be nice though if the interior is more distinctive. Not just from the aesthetic angle but have different or more functionality to the other cars in the vag group. Looking a little generic. Still want one🤫😊

ohh that does sound a lot - the Born is a cool car. I have a video coming on the Born on the Marshall Motor Group channel.
@@AutoSocialUK brilliant I’ll check it out 😉
There are only 2 valid engine options for a Cupra - 2.0 petrol or 2.5 petrol.
What is this colour please?
What colour is the formentor hybrid

Thanks Rob, hahaha don't say that - because I shoot on my own with a tripod I try to add some movement to the shots!
Great work and research done on this enjoyable review.

You’re saying the exact same thing over every formentor video! must be really pis**d off
Beautiful woman, beautiful car - what can go wrong?
Nothing I hope.....
Hi , great review and great car 👀 love it
But, no side view as usual so sad 😓 …
In the next time 🙏
You are so beautiful 😍
I know I am beautiful. Thank you for the compliment 😜
I only had a short amount of time, so now side view unfortunately haha! More shots in the next video!
formentor..the best..that with 300HP.
😈😈
how do you do your camera work shots are so steady great work tish great car
Thank you, just a tripod works great and I try to mix up the shots!
I like your outfits
Thank you so much!
Suzuki across FTW. You should review that and compare them,
Really you think? I wasn't sure on the Across.... a very expensive Suzuki!
@@AutoSocialUK it's a re-badged Toyota. Only cheaper. Must be the pick of any plug in hybrid SUV.
Ha! Ha! It starts off as a Formenta then changes half way through the video to a Formentor.
I learnt how to say it half way through!!
Your reviews are getting even better 👍 do you know if hybrids will still be for sale after 2030 ?
Manufacturers will not be allowed to make new hybrids from 2035, so these will be gone 5 years after conventional internal combustion engine cars.
Hi Robert, I think there might still be the very few hybrids being built but probably not many. Suzuki no doubt!! Who knows how things will pan out. Fully electric still seems impossible right now.
This is a crossover, not an SUV....
Good day , i want to see a car that doesn't suit you. I searched your channel and did not find it 🌼 thanks for the good review and for the details. Good look
what color ist that?
Asphalt Blue I believe
Magnetic Tech Grey I believe

I LOVE a skoda, honestly think they're fab! Not the Suberb Estate but Enyaq video coming soon!
I love the Range Rover, especially the Velar. How does it look with you, let's wait 😉
No such thing as best plug in hybrid.
Got a VZ1 245 and it's pathetic.
I do 40k a year and it's the worst company hack I've ever had the displeasure of having to drive.
The Pure VZ5 is the only option, phev 🤮 That car looks great anyways.
Hahaha I do agree that this car belongs as the 310bhp monster it was designed to be!
@autosocial the vz5 is 390bhp.....
73 plate 9k miles and it's rubbish. 42k car and it's pathetic.
Lovely legs xx
Thanks! I make sure they are extra hairy
