The CUPRA Formentor VZ5 returns with its iconic five-cylinder character, pairing sharp design updates with derestricted performance for a more focused drive.
Design With a Sharper Edge
The exterior gains wider arches, a front splitter with an engraved VZ5 logo and copper-accented diagonal exhausts. These elements add presence while improving airflow. New 20-inch alloy wheels complete the refreshed stance.
Refined Cabin for Driving Focus
Inside, CUPBucket seats offer secure support and a lower seating position. Copper details, performance materials and a driver-centered layout enhance the cockpit’s sporty atmosphere without compromising comfort.
Limited to 4,000 Units
The VZ5 enters new markets, now available in both left- and right-hand drive. This expansion brings the model to enthusiasts who previously could not access CUPRA’s most exclusive combustion vehicle.
Chassis and Dynamic Control
The VZ5 maintains its torque-splitting agility with precise all-wheel-drive calibration. Akebono six-piston brakes improve stopping power, while suspension tuning delivers quick rotation and controlled body movement.
Handling With Purpose
Weight distribution, updated steering response and advanced brake modulation work together for balanced performance. These adjustments help the VZ5 feel more planted during rapid transitions and high-speed runs.
Power and Performance
The 2.5-litre TSI engine produces 390PS and 480Nm, delivering strong acceleration and a distinctive five-cylinder rhythm. A derestricted top speed of 280km/h lets the VZ5 reach its full potential. The powertrain offers sharp throttle response and confident traction.
Emotional Character With Function
The VZ5 blends mechanical emotion with modern precision. Visual elements highlight performance intent, while technical upgrades ensure consistency during spirited driving. Each detail amplifies control without removing daily usability.
Summary
The CUPRA Formentor VZ5 returns with refined design, focused dynamics and greater market reach. Its 390PS engine, distinctive sound and sharper chassis reaffirm its place as CUPRA’s most expressive combustion model.
