In my opinion it's not even an SUV. It is almost the same size as the mazda 3 hatchback. 70mm taller, 45mm wider and 15mm shorter. I have both so I have a direct comparison 🙂
well yeah I know for sure that is isn't really an SUV but what it's more like, a mid size SUV? or does it count as even smaller? have sat in one but I don't have experience with other SUV's so I doesn't really have a clue about this@karolmaek8596
I own a T Roc and did a swap with that 5cylinder also a little tune up and it makes around 510Hp I also added a 8 speed torque converter from a s5 including the Quattro. Porsche brakes and Center lock wheels also got 4 etron seats including a 80L tank so I can make 1000km per full tank I enjoy it everyday… Cost me around 85k and I love it! Makes easy 300kmh on autobahn And it’s fun… My kids love it aswell! Enjoy that engine most likely the last to be build…😢
@@staansmiithaside from the wide wheelsbase and the Center akrapovic 2 pipe exhaust it looks almost normal… The paint work is not finished and I need to wrap most of the interior in alcantara since the quality is horrendous😂 I will make a carporn 100% once I’m finished.
hello! I have an rs3 hatch 2023 stock with 7500 km....and i have around 9,5 sec 100-200 made in december 2023 on highway !; so A cupra fomentor with 450 hp is like an audi rs3 stock
Yes, this is due to higher drag resistance / aerodynamics. It's a perfect example how aero works =). That's why the RS3 will also always have better fuel economy.
with this comparison we can see how amazing this car is, a SUV with a lot of place inside and can do the same numbers that a hatchback with the same motor... crazy
True that. I got a stock VZ5, always liked the RS3 but the Audi does not have one thing the Formentor has: space. Cupra is not a big car but once you get inside, especially on the back seats, you are surprised by the amount of leg room it has.
The cold weather isn"t that much of a"problem because cold air makes a bigger explotion than warm/hot air.So theoreticly you should get a better time in winter with that dry condition.I think your tires could be a problem.
It is a common information, that the sales numbers of this type are not as good as estimated. They have to push it with some marketing inspired special editions. This is sad, this car is underestimated. In a few years, with all the much stronger reglementations, we might regret this ignorance!?
my cupra formentor VZ, orginally 310hp, after stage 1+ intercoosler (cost only about 1500-2000EUR) gains 420hp+ and do 100-200kmh at similar time 9.5-10.0s. Maybe is not better that ABT veresion, but better than stock VZ5.
@@DnBDubstepManiak1good question and I don't know the answer. Through this entry, I just wanted to inform, that the 2.0TSI EA888 EVO 4 is a unit with great tuning potential. Only changing the software gives a power gain about 100 HP, 30% compared to the stock. Here, ABT did 15% 60HP gain at EA855 engine. VZ5 costs 25-30kEUR more.
Das ist oft auch mein Gedanke. Momentan Cupra 300. Oft denke ich, irgendwie würde ich gerne auf RS oder ähnliches in dieser Klasse upgraden aber dann kommt schnell die Vernunft und fragt WARUM? WOFÜR? Bin doch so schon bestens im Alltag motorisiert. Rennstrecke fahre ich nicht. Von daher....🤷 Einzig vielleicht die Emotionen bei einem 5 Zylinder. Aber als Statussymbol brauche ich sowas nicht.
Funny how Audi allowed a Spanish brand (Cupra) get their 5 cylinders engine, instead of letting Volkswagen using it in the Golf R. Why do you think that happened?
Cooler air is good for engine power but usually bad for everything else😉 more wind resistance, winter tires, less grip on tarmac etc. So I would say 10-20 degrees Celsius is probably ideal….ceteris paribus.
I do love Cupras, but their naming convention is fucking terrible. I always thought the Leon VZ3 was the same engine as the GTI Clubsport, but they also have a 1.4 hybrid. You can get the VZ2 with 300bhp, but only FWD. The AWD one is estate only.
Here lm Germany the naming is quite neat. There are four VZ models named as following: - VZ e-hybrid (245 hp hybrid) - VZ245 (245 hp GTI engine) - VZ310 (310 hp Golf R engine) - VZ5 (RS3 engine) Talking about the Leon there’s also the VZ300, which only has fwd. So it’s quite easy to distinguish the different models by naming

@@deejaymatiq buddy, that was a joke!
0-100 in 3.8 is incredible for a Cupra SUV
It’s not much worse when stock, they claim it’s 4,2s but I have no equipment to actually check it with mine.

That ain't no cupra, it's Audi throughout, the entire car is Audi /VW badge on all parts...so it's a bargain.
@@SeanSimmons-c8h still a good car though
Really cool car with a very nice sound. 0-100 km/h in 3.8s it is a serious figure !
can probably do it in 3.5 or lower with the right tires
HA😍😍😍
What a sound that is ohhh, I have vz with 310 hp but that is crazy🔥🔥🔥
Sounds like a real car, amazing
First i thought, what the hell is a BAT Edition ;). Nice car and sound, thx for the vid.
😁💪
This vz5 version is a beast😍🔥
what a BEAST man , PERFECT daily !
Very beautiful sound😮
The steering wheel is really beautiful ! 😱
I’m driving this BAT and it’s very funny, comfortable, fast and so the perfect daily car.
Such a nice engine sound, if I close my eyes I'd think it was an Audi R8 or even a Lambo

That means you can have same performance (with ABT tuning) for cheaper price.

Very fast!
How are all these stock Formentors getting sub 4 seconds? 🤯
RSQ3 does 4.4 seconds with the same engine...crazy
Pretty impressive numbers and hardcore sound! mid 9´s are M5 E60 level and for a small SUV quite fast....
this is a nice A45 amg and RS3 competitor. No suv in the world got less than 7 inches ground clearance. This is an hatch
@@fredrceYes, if you look it from that perspective you´re right... pseudo-suv

We need these in the US!
BATMAN EDITION 🦇
I want 1 now!!❤
Top every day beast🤙⭐️
this thing flies
Beast 👿
La mejor versión de Formentor y la única que me compraría!
Una pena que no llegue a México 😞
Bots in the comment 😭 Good videos like everytime
very very nice performance.....
The staggered exhuast looks good only on Lexus F cars.
It Sounds great
Sounds like my 2.3 EcoBoost, with custom exhaust) And - this is nice
Such a shame that it was unavailable in the UK I've had to settle for the vz2 as I'm not keen on the vz3 wheels, it's still a great car though
A BEAST! This should be the base model for Cupra Formentor, imagine V8 T :D
Do you live in the „Wedemark“? Always on A352 🎉😊

is it really called BAT edition or was that a typo for ABT?
RS3 engine?
Jes. ))
Is it weird that i like this one more than the Audi products with same engine
Is that the : old bat edition with hair roller heaters
BAT or ABT ??
Nicely!
Greetings from Citroen DS3 156
What are those paddle shifter extension?
Geiler Motor👍....Der Rest ....naja😎
Geschmackssache
I didn’t know Abt was a prepa for Cupra ! I thought it was only Audi.
For VAG Group. They also tune Skoda for example
😊 bravo 🍟
Has Audi RS3 5 Calendar Engine
Is this seat??
That 5 cylinders sounds the same as a V10 of his older cousins of Audi and Lamborghini
And without LC ?
The only fast vz5 i saw so far is the one tuned by HGP on a stage 2 now that was a monster running a 100 to 200 in mid 7's with 520 ps
Do u have video link
@@bennie11ben22 just type HGP formentor vz5 mit 528 ps it will pop up
Sounds like an RS3?
It sounds exactly like the Audi RS3 😊
Maybe it's because it's the same engine
Va come un Rs3 con 50 CV in più e più leggero ..ottimo
Akrapovic sounds like stock to me, is it louder?
Was nützt das in 3,8 auf 100 zu sein außerhalb der Rennstrecke ??

@marcol298 5Zyl Sound sind es wert
Transmission is pretty slow, could do with some tuning to quicken the shifts.
Wish it was possible to own that car in denmark, but you gotta be like, close to a millionair to afford that here :/
Dindt know that u can drive so hard on winter tyres, i thougt there was a max speed on it.
Audi rs3 engine sounds naughty
Wawawaw
Incredible car. But a stock RS3 is still faster, especially above 200 km/h.
4 x 4 ???
Yes👍
@@Automann-TV thx automann really appreciate your videos and your work
4x4 with torque splitter
Warum knattert der Wagen so? Ist der Auspuff kaputt. Ich finde Verbrenner mittlerweile nur noch albern 😂
my vz5 with 450hp does 100-200 in 9.3 with winter tires, this one doesn't have 450
Great car but skeptical for additional 20k , way too expensive
BAT - man edition 😂!
Funny how Audi allowed a Spanish brand (Cupra) get their 5 cylinders engine, instead of letting Volkswagen using it in the Golf R.
Why do you think that happened?
Cause Spaniards are the best
But it's the same company it doesn't matter
Dear god please cupra make a ateca vz5
BAT og ABT edition 🤔
Both😉
i thought it was a sportage.
I thought colder weather meant better performance? Or do you mean that extremely cold weather is bad and chilly weather is optimal.
Cooler air is good for engine power but usually bad for everything else😉 more wind resistance, winter tires, less grip on tarmac etc. So I would say 10-20 degrees Celsius is probably ideal….ceteris paribus.

Is this on the Audi Q3 platform?
Golf MQB plattform
Mqb evo. Rs3 running gear.
If the R8 gets 5 cylinder hybrid...
Я ее видел в Таллине именно VZ5 она ламборгини не уступит. Очень крутая.

Lucid please!!!

Its not BAT its ABT the same tuning company that tunes audi rs6
En France impossible de l'acheter

Pitty that it is limited.
rs3 sound
Whats up with the princess gloves 😂😂😂
Way to fast driving on winter tires
How da-re you ? 🤣
