Cupra Formentor
The car that made Cupra a marque rather than a trim level — the only model in the range with no SEAT, Škoda or Volkswagen twin wearing the same body, which is why it has a page here and the Cupra Leon does not. Underneath it is MQB, so the engines, gearboxes and control modules are the ones the corpus already carries for a Golf or a Leon of the same year; the Formentor-specific part is the four-wheel-drive coupling and the software around it.
Generations

KM 2020–present
MQB Evo throughout, so Golf and Leon information applies to the powertrain directly; the plug-in hybrid drives the front axle only, which is the fact that catches people out on a four-wheel-drive-looking car.

Information, not instruction
CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.
Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:
- The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
- What you measured, not only what you replaced.
- What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
