So..
I haven't got a Formentor, yet.. bare with me and be gentle..

Looking for a company car on lease and really can't go EV yet.. so out of all the PHEV the Formentor floats my boat from a looks and BIK point of view.
I currently drive a Subaru Outback 3.6R.. (private). Which I love to bits, for it's capability... (You would be very surprised at how good it really is, but nobody knows about them, only 184 sold in the uk)
Yes I am "mature" in age ha ha ha.. (but still think I am 30)...

Obviously I am looking at the 272 VZ models as the replacement...(Lease through the company)
From what I gather the 3 has bigger brakes, different seats and a few other tweaks etc?

Is it really better from a driver's point of view??

I will have to live with my choice for 2 years minimum..
My driving style is "spirited" over long distances generally (140 mile commute each Monday/Friday across country and in the Welsh hillsides).. I am used to the pace of my Outback...
Likely have to get a 20k mile lease deal as I do a fair few miles (90k put on the OB in 5 years)

Any particular options should be made or things to not bother with??
Looking forward to some insights..

Yes. I am going to go find a dealer with one to try.. hopefully I can take it out for a hour .
Cheers
