car reviews

The Solterra plays to Subaru's strengths, and while it's not the best all-round EV out there, it's more engaging than you might expect

The MG4 brings range, equipment, zippy dynamics and style to the small electric car party. Why spend more on something else?

Sorry, purists. Porsche’s bestselling car in the UK is the most complete small premium SUV money can buy

A bunch of great updates make the Ford Mustang a sharper sports car while still staying true to its muscle car roots

The Velar plugs a gap in, er, Land Rover's range of Range Rovers. It's bigger than the Evoque but smaller than the Sport

Smart has been reborn as a Toys R Us Mercedes. Soft-edged and comforting, but it’s yet another electric crossover and lacks a USP

The EQS SUV does it all but it lacks the character and supreme authority that makes the Range Rover such a lodestar

Few buyers will make full use of all the Defender's abilities, but it's a family car that’ll make you feel adventurous

With so much Giulia DNA, the Stelvio was bound to be good. At last an Alfa to buy with your heart *and* head

The Lexus RX is a handsome player in the big SUV arena, but it's hard to play the value card this high up the price chain

The Tonale is styled and engineered with more verve than most of its rivals. Not perfect, but no crossovers are

BMW’s littlest SUV is no longer so little, but is hampered by its interior tech and combustion engines. iX1 is the pick of the bunch

A coupe that'll warm the hearts of traditionalists, but it's a little too closely aligned to the bigger 4 Series Coupe

A decent attempt at a lifestyle SUV which should come with a premium ownership experience, but doesn’t drive as well as its German rivals

Decent powertrain happily takes a back seat to dependable quality. This is where the electric vehicle hits the mainstream

Audi’s heartland hero might not have the hustle of a BMW 3 Series Touring, but it’s plenty competent and got refinement on its side

The Audi A6 Avant makes a compelling case for itself, but doesn’t quite match up to the all-round excellence of the BMW 5 Series Touring

Among the most complete family cars you can buy for sensible money. As compelling now as it was when it was launched in 2016

One of the pioneering performance SUVs uses plug-in power to stay relevant in its third generation

For the vast majority of us, the 3 Series Touring is all the car we could use or want. For the final one per cent there will soon be the M3 Touring

An extremely competent, well-built example of an EV SUV, but apart from those looks, there's no stand-out USP
