Our time with the formidable Cupra Formentor has sadly come to an end. It gives us an opportunity to reflect on our use of the car and its combination of practicality for a medium-sized family and dynamism for the driver. A family holiday in the Lake District proved just how nimble and engaging this car could be on winding roads, even with four people on board. Body roll was reassuringly well controlled and 'sport' mode ensured it turned its nose precisely where you pointed it. The same holiday, and several trips to our local recycling centre, also proved the Formentor's practicality. Despite the hybrid system eating into the standard car's 420-litre boot, leaving us 345 litres to use in our E-Hybrid model, the car swallowed the suitcases and holdalls we required for a week away, and the Formentor's low ride height compared with most SUVs meant loading up wasn't too back-straining. |
