A few months have passed since spy photographers caught up with the facelifted Cupra Formentor, but it’s back and looking more aggressive than ever.
Spotted getting in some lap time, the 2024 Formentor will receive a Tavascan-inspired update that includes new headlights with triangular LED daytime running lights. The changes continue below with an all-new bumper that features a sizable intake as well as angular bars. The latter appear to be incorporated into the new grille as well.
The rear end doesn’t look radically different, but the production model could be outfitted with a lightly revised liftgate and updated lighting units. The bumper could also be refreshed, although the one on this prototype appears to carryover from the current model.
