Compare the Cupra Formentor vs Hyundai Tucson
AI generated from our expert reviews
The Hyundai Tucson gives you a high seating position for a good all-round view, whereas you should look elsewhere if you want an SUV with a high-up driving position rather than the Cupra Formentor's low seat. When driving on country roads, the Formentor comes into its own, while you should not expect any fun on a country lane from the Tucson, even in its powerful plug-in hybrid form. In the back of both cars, fitting three adults across the rear is tight: you will not want to squeeze a third adult onto the Formentor's narrow, hard centre rear seat unless you have to, while three grown-ups in the Tucson will find shoulder room more than a little snug. For carrying luggage, the Tucson has a bigger boot than the Formentor.
