Overall, owners and testers tend to view the CUPRA Terramar as a well-equipped, premium-feeling compact SUV that combines an engaging, sporty yet relaxed driving experience with practical, family-friendly interior space. Typical positives mentioned include generous standard kit, a roomier and more liveable cabin compared with close rivals, distinctive styling and a direct, characterful drive; clear negatives are not evident in the available comments. These impressions come largely from short test drives and early ownership reports, so longer-term feedback is still limited.

Drives great. Responsive. Sporty but relaxed. Fairly intuitive controls. Just a bit more character than the Audi. (I've driven both) and after 2 months and 12,000 km in the Terramar, the Cupra is my favorite

My impressions are based on only a three-day test drive, and they are excellent. The test drive "convinced" me to buy the Cupra Terramar, and I am currently waiting for the model I ordered.

Test drove both, Terramar is more liveable for a family as more practical with larger interior space and feels more premium overall. The Formentor in VZ form is super fast and agile and great fun to drive, but feels less premium all round. I also think the Terramar looks nicer inside and out.

Had a Terramar for nearly 12 months and it’s proven a great choice. Love the driving experience and that fact it’s less common than Tiguan/Q3 cousins. V2 spec gives you so much kit you don’t need any extras.

A better-equipped version of a car that's technically very similar to the Q3, offered at a more attractive price.
