car reviews

A handsome saloon or estate that doesn’t try too hard to be an aero car

The Explorer’s close cousin is a little slinkier looking but more expensive and much the same to drive

One or two good EVs could’ve been a fluke… but Kia’s still nailing the brief. EV3 joins what could be the strongest family EV line-up on sale today

It's as solid as ever, but some cheap plastics and a ponderous petrol engine have let the side down a bit

The newly facelifted Skoda Octavia is the perfect antidote to every SUV out there. Better to look at, better to drive and just as practical

The seven-seater SUV market is rather crowded, but not many bring this style of hybrid tech to the party

A good SUV from Kia - quietly does all the family jobs you need, without fuss. Looks smart, too

A wonderful package of practicality, refinement and comfort at a reasonable price

Smaller and lighter would've been lovely, but no dice. Oh well, the Countryman still hits its brief as an SUV

The Mk4 Skoda Superb is the Czech firm’s best effort yet. Get one while you still can

Had enough of the family SUV? The E-Class proves there’s still plenty of life in the estate

Ford jumps on the electric crossover bandwagon. Ignore the Mustang branding and you'll find an accomplished car

A great looking car with a myriad of drivetrain options. Shame the Skoda Octavia exists

A supremely complete crossover. And better to drive than it strictly needs to be

Newly facelifted eighth-gen Golf remains the lingua-franca of the hatch world. A finely polished machine

The latest Corolla covers all the bases and even looks sharp, but offers little else

The new MG 3 deserves its place at the supermini table. Good to drive, frugal to run, and cheap as they come

Latest generation of the ultimate American go-anywhere 4x4 is the most authentic thing Jeep makes. Off-roaders don’t get gnarlier than this

The latest 5 Series is every bit as brilliant as its predecessor. As you were...

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

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