      Highly appreciated! I know there might be some who publish more, but our goal actually is to deliver every single video with the same accuracy and quality, so much preparation and post-work goes into this to make it the best service possible, everything we do is customer/viewer oriented and not self-focussed. I hope enough people realize and appreciate that and long-term the work pays off. We have no venture capital, we don't sell cars and we're always modest. Not the strategy to suddenly gain the most attention, but we rather seek those who dont fall for the big hypes but appreciate long-term authentic and quality content.

      I used to watch a Carwow or AutoTrader for any news and car reviews, but few years ago they became targeting only upper market, exotic vehicles which became unbearable to watch. Then I found out this gem of a chanel reviewing all sorts of vehicles. Budget, mid range, performance, exotic, electric etc etc. German presenter, speaking perfect, fluent English and reviewing a wide range of German cars does it get any better. With TopGear / Grand Tour trio on retirement you should do a car show.

    it welcomed me with a small lightshow.

    Great review as usual, with attention to details and calming presentation style! Thank you both for your efforts and keep it up!
    I noticed you showed there's no felt material in the door bins, which made me wonder: did you get the chance to see if the side windows are double-glazed or not? Those make a non-negligible difference in terms of heat and noise insulation, and the class/size/group sibling (the Tiguan) has those - as you mentioned in that review. Also the extra-laminated windscreen with heating (optional) on Tiguan would be nice to have on Terramar also, since it offers a lot of sun protection in the summer, but it's not even optional at Cupra. How did you find the overall soundproofing in the Terramar? Is it closer to Tiguan or rather more like the Formentor?
    It's easily understandable why the Fromentor would feel sportier by comparison, since the last VZ you reviewed (the facelift) had the 333HP 2.0 TSI and it is about 150 kg lighter compared to the Terramar. I'm also on the same page with you on one of your last remarks: I like the Tiguan package&practicality, but not too much it's esthetics. Not to mention the excess of glossy (piano) black they've used in the interior - which makes the Terramar interior a much more pleasant place to be.

    I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to let you know that I’ve recently purchased the Terramare 1.5 Etsi, and while I’m excited about the vehicle, I have a slight concern regarding the engine.
    Given the weight of the car, I’m a bit unsure if the 1.5 engine will provide enough power for a smooth and adequate driving experience. I’d appreciate hearing your thoughts on this-do you believe this engine is sufficient, or might it feel a little underpowered?

    Thank you again for the detail.
    What strikes me about the inside is just how alike it is to every other VW/Audi brand using this platform. As with Skoda, Cupra have done their best to make the UI/UX work with buttons and other style cues. What really lets both brands down, which is VW/Audi’s fault, is the awful iPad on the dashboard with the incompetent touch screen and terrible software. Having heard the pricing, it is not conceivably worth the money for such mediocrity.
    What would you have instead of this? Something from Alfa, Mini, or Smart; maybe even a low end BMW 1 of some kind.

    People, after I had the luck to be the owner and daily user of more than 15 cars in the last 20 years I would tell you this. Stay away from any european car made in the last 8 years. Price/Quality is awful, scarse quality in the first place. The cars will look good and funtion well for about 9 to 12 months and then the waterfall of probems will begin. Overpriced junk made by the same companies (VW makes Seat, Audi, Skoda, Cupra, Porsche, Lamborghini, Bugatti and even Ducati and some heavy truck companies like Scania and MAN). Same junky cars repackaged and hidden under differend "clothes". The same goes for the Stellantis group and for Mercedes and BMW. They think that by putting 3 or 4 touch screens in a car and making a nice steering wheel means they manufacture a good car. They are impractical, smaller yet far more expensive than their Japanese, American or Korean counterparts, less reliable, more expensive to maintain, not as economical as they claim to be and not better looking either. Go Japanese or Korean first if you want something new. Go

      SEAT Cupra S.A.U. (Sauron indeed, Thomas) is wholly owned by Volkswagen AG. Within VAG, it is part of the Volkswagen car brand group, and the CEO of SEAT Cupra, Wayne Griffiths, reports to Thomas Schäfer, CEO of Volkswagen Passenger Cars Brand.
      Cupra was the name and modification process SEAT used for its top sport models, in the same was VW employs R, and Audi employs RS. The decision to split Cupra into a unique model range was in 2018. It seems likely that Cupra will eventually replace the SEAT brand name completely.

    5:25 Hey, well since u asked. :) I have zero intent to be negative about this topic but I will be honest. :) Imo "fake exaust tips" or exaust outlets that are hidden and pointed downwards to exaust into asphalt/road are better in multiple ways. :) Well, we know corporations do that for saving measures although it doesn't make our car cheaper but this way we have to worry less about maintenance in therms of cleaning, protection from water going in during car wash and on top of all exaust fume particles are being caught up on asphalt when exaust is directed toward it. Not 100% of them but vast amount by some studies published now probably around 10 years ago. Ofc I doubt corpos even care about it (they save on this aproach - earn more) but for us it is more beneficial. Thing is tyres catch some from asphalt but that's the case anyways etc. Majority stays on surface cause it has oil in a form with it and it reacts with particles. This isn't my profession not closely so I only tried explaining it simple ways. I think the point is clear. When it comes to esthetics, I guess it's individual.
    I personally would rather hear something practical concerning presented car than a comment regarding exaust tip as I can see it. What's the fucntional aspect that could replace it? Since it's cupra I'll give u an example I bare in mind since I checked new Formentor. Not all versions have multilink at the back. It would be beneficial to hear which ones have and which ones don't as it's far more important than exaust tips. Also if there's a separate package for bad roads in offer, or package for lower NVH value etc.

    • @autogefuehl

Tiguan shares more tech with Q3 than with Q5. The only similarity with Q5 is the size, but the market segments are different.

    In the good old days, americans were producing reald SUVs, pickups, trucks and so on. They needed big cars, they had a lot of gasoline, they had a lot of wildness and ranches. But what is the stupid reason for which everyone like small and tall SUVs? I understand, some want to be taller, to have if bigger and so on. But when everybody will have SUVs, I guess we will move back to sedans.
    So, I understand if you want a big car to go to your ranch in the wildness, but not to drive it in mega congestion cities. And especially ICE cars. They should be forbidden in cities.
