Cupra: Five pots make steam
LIMITED TOP MODEL The VZ5 is the most powerful Cupra Formentor. Its 2.5-liter five-cylinder with 390 hp and many racing technology details provide adrenaline. Now the car is at the dealer at a price of 70,000 francs.
With maximum output of 390 hp and maximum torque of 480 Nm, the 2.5-liter turbocharged engine accelerates the all-wheel-drive top-of-the-line Formentor VZ5 from a standstill to 100 km/h in just 4.2 seconds.
Acoustically, a four-pipe exhaust system perfectly underscores the characteristic sound of the inline five-cylinder engine - giving car enthusiasts goose bumps.
Widened track and lowered superstructure
However, the Formentor VZ5 is not only particularly sporty thanks to its powerful powertrain; the rest of the technology also bears witness to motorsport DNA. With a wider track and a body lowered by a further ten millimeters, the new model achieves even greater cornering stability.
A torque splitter is also installed on the rear axle for maximum agility. The braking system has also been adapted to the driving performance.
Only 7000 units are on sale worldwide
On request, leather sports bucket seats provide the necessary lateral support for ambitious driving. The Cup Super Sport bucket seats in black or petrol blue leather convey a real motorsport feeling. The Cupra Formentor VZ5 2.5 TSI 4Drive is available in three colors: Midnight Black Metallic, Magnetic Grey Matt and Petrol Blue Matt.
However, anyone who wants to secure a copy should not hesitate too long, because the five-cylinder Cupra is limited to 7,000 units worldwide.
