Spanish car brand Cupra, originally an upscale trim level of Seat, has successfully established a distinct identity as Seat refocuses on budget models. The Cupra Formentor boasts a powerful five-cylinder turbocharged engine, signaling a performance-oriented approach. A unique feature of the Formentor is a button on the dashboard that dramatically alters the car’s driving characteristics. While the Formentor range begins around €37,500, this report focuses on the vehicle’s performance capabilities rather than specific pricing tiers. The button transforms the car, leading some to describe it as a “sleeper” – a vehicle appearing unassuming but possessing significant power. This feature highlights Cupra’s ambition to deliver a dynamic and engaging driving experience.
