car reviews

VW got a lot wrong with the ID.5... and hasn't fixed much of it with the facelift. Oh dear

Leave your baggage about its looks at the door and the Cayenne Coupe is a stupendous thing

The styling is a matter of taste, but anyone put off by it will be missing out on one of the best-realised EV crossovers there is

The X5 does an impressive job, but it's ultimately hamstrung by being a BMW

A classy alternative to the EV norm-core and accomplished to drive. But the Macan outwits it, so it's close… but no cigar

BMW recognises that the iX2 isn’t for everyone. It’s not for us either – just get the iX1

Smart styling and lots of tech from BYD’s flagship saloon, but it isn’t as sophisticated to drive or operate as it is to look at

A behemoth of a car, but one bestowed with genuine practicality and actual off-road ability

Being useful and affordable is a good way to show up the showboats

A £75k Kia? Yes, the world's arrived here, but the EV9 does plenty to justify a once-fanciful price

Not fun to drive nor spacious in the back, the EQA is an EV bodge job. The interior's nice though

Honestly? The new X2 doesn’t feel like a car BMW spent spent much time or love on

The Volvo EX30 is a likeable and admirable car, unless you’re sat in the back of it or lost in the labyrinth that is the screen

Hugely comfortable, impressively equipped and assured to drive. The new C-Class ticks a lot of boxes

Audi’s largest SUV takes the shock out of living with an electric vehicle

It’s a deeply complete car, the Cayenne: practical, potent and very clever. Underneath, it’s still at the top of the class to drive

If you want to experience the best chassis in the business, it's here. And thankfully the 6cyl is back, too

If you can make use of it, there's nothing to match it

The Cullinan: named after a diamond, styled after a taxi, yet wonderfully dignified and remains every inch a Rolls-Royce

Mini-me EQS that's comfier than its big brother. Would be more relaxing if the tech was less overwhelming

One of the most complete sports cars ever created. Beautiful to drive, and bulletproof to live with
