The whole Cupra thing is incredibly confusing to me. For the most part they're performance versions of Seats, but there's also the Formentor, which doesn't have a Seat equivalent. It's supposed to be a performance brand, but the Formentor comes with engines with as little as 150hp. Then there's the Born, which also has a low-end 148hp version and there's going to be a Seat Born as well. It just seems like a bit of a mess when it comes to brand identity.

What Cupra is doing with the Born is the strangest aspect for me. I'd understand if the intention was to only have the Born sit alongside the ID.3 as the variants with a more emotional design, but a Seat (with the design of the el-Born concept) would pretty much take up the same slot as the Cupra, especially if they all come in the entry-level 148hp configuration.

Well, this is surprising. Cupra confirms US debut by the end of the decade. The two announced products are the midsized Formentor CUV and an all new full-sized SUV designed specifically for the US.
