Of course, now Cupra has been separated into a separate brand, but the Formentor is based on the SEAT Ateca. The VZ5 version is equipped with a 2.5-liter five-cylinder turbo engine, familiar from the Audi RS3 and RS Q3. It develops 390 hp and has a torque of 480 N∙m.
The characteristics of the Cupra Formentor VZ5 are very good – its dynamics are better than those of the Porsche Macan Turbo. Acceleration to 100 km/h takes 4.2 seconds, and the top speed is limited to 250 km/h.
The Cupra Formentor VZ5 is available exclusively with all-wheel drive. Naturally, the suspension with adaptive dampers and steering have been refined, and new Akebono brakes with six-piston calipers have been installed.
You can distinguish the VZ5 from the standard Cupra Formentor by the enlarged front air intakes, body kit, and special 20-inch wheels. The ground clearance is reduced by 10 mm, and original exhaust pipes have appeared at the rear.
The interior trim uses leather with contrasting stitching. New sports seats and a steering wheel with a flattened bottom rim have also been installed.
