Compare the BYD Atto 2 vs Cupra Formentor
AI generated from our expert reviews
You sit up high in the BYD Atto 2, whereas the Cupra Formentor lets you set the seat pretty low and will not suit you if you want a high-up driving position. Out on country lanes, the Formentor comes into its own, while you will have a far better time in the Atto 2 if you take them at a moderate speed rather than attacking corners with too much enthusiasm. In the back, both cars provide generous space for tall passengers, though forward visibility is a bit lacking in the Atto 2 and spoiled in the Formentor because of their front seats. When carrying three adults across the rear seats, the Atto 2 offers enough room for them to sit side by side with little complaint, but you will not want to squeeze a third adult onto the Formentor's narrow, hard centre rear seat unless you have to.
