Yes
Why would/wouldn't you buy it again?
I would absolutely buy the Cupra Formentor V e-Hybrid again or in fact, any other cupra without hesitation. Itʼs a car that delivers everything I wanted and more: striking design, innovative technology, and an effortless driving experience that makes every trip enjoyable. The hybrid performance gives me the best of both worlds power when I want it and efficiency when I need it while still aligning with my goal to drive something more sustainable.
It feels unique, not like every other car on the road, and that individuality really appeals to me. The only thing Iʼd change would be wishing for a slightly longer electric range but thatʼs a small trade-off for such a well-balanced, premium drive. The Formentor has truly set the bar high.
