car reviews

An electric SUV that's good to look at and nice to sit in, but at a price

Completely forgettable to look at and lacking in dynamic talent, but the BYD Dolphin is at least well equipped and spacious

Finding fault with the A3 Sportback is quite hard. Right now, it’s the most roundly talented premium hatch there is

Unquestionably better than its rather lumpy predecessor... but why not just go for a 3 Series instead?

This was originally meant to be called the new A7, but it’s the standard A6 recipe that we know and really quite like

Mini’s tactic to replace its heartland hatch with a heavy facelift was a gamble, but it seems to have paid off

Exciting looks clothe typical Toyota cleanliness and worthiness. Still a bit bland though

Kia proves that forward-thinking needn’t be wacky and that sensible needn’t be boring

An Audi for people who like Audis – you could do much worse

DS makes something inevitably different from the German opposition, and surprisingly different from the rest of Stellantis's stuff

The Aceman is there for those that want a Cooper with rear doors and a slightly bigger boot. But it's not a game-changer

Bigger, but not necessarily better – the new A5 keeps the spirit of the old A4 alive

Volvo's baby SUV does a decent job of being slightly different but entirely acceptable

More fun than a crossover, roomy, comfortable, efficient and importantly, it's got character and is likeable

Not all that novel, but at least the Ariya is well equipped and the interior will win you over

The Mini Cooper is a great little car, overflowing with personality. This one just happens to be electric

VW decided the seven-seat Tiguan needed its own unique treatment… the end result is the Tayron

Skoda’s most desirable family car enters a bold second generation. New styling tinsel hides an otherwise evolutionary step

A fine, relaxing executive saloon. Provided you’re able to ignore the distracting tech. And coarse four cylinder engine

Fancy a slice of sensible Skoda-ness but put off by the Enyaq’s size? The Elroq has you covered

Looks slick, drives adroitly, and bigger engines and bougier specs see it shine brightest, of course. Pity the tech spoils it
