TBF the Ateca looks quite nice in red and copper wheels and it holds it own. In the real world most people wouldn't think the Formentor is quicker. But still they seemed to enjoy it lol.

I actually really like the facelift model. I thought it might be down to weight but the Ateca is 1,615kg and the Formentor is 1,644kg.

The Formentor (on paper) has 10 more hp... but we know nowadays the figures are always better than claimed. The Formentor has 315hp as dyno'd from standard, not sure on the Ateca. Plus, the Ateca has the aerodynamics of a brick, probably why the Formentor picks up at higher speeds.

Interesting anyway!
