car reviews

Toyota adds an estate-like boot onto its already extremely competent electric SUV. What’s not to like?”

A £84k Kia? Yes, this is where we are now, but the EV9 does plenty to justify a once-fanciful price

The follow-up to the successful DS 7 irons out some of its idiosyncrasy while standing convincingly proud of its numerous Stellantis cousins. A job decently done

Audi’s best-selling model is back for a third generation, but we miss the old interior

The Volvo EX60 majors in connectivity, quality, practicality, and safety – that the iX3 is superior to drive is neither here nor there

The world’s best-selling car gets a serious update in this second-generation. But is it enough to keep it at the top of the charts?

Surprise, Surprise - big Mercedes is excellent. And far less obnoxious to look at than its closest rival.

For the vast majority of us, the 3 Series Touring is all the car we want or need. For the final one per cent there is the M3 Touring

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

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

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

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

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

Porsche nails the mid-sized electric SUV. No huge technological leaps, but absolutely solid in all areas. Best-in-class

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

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 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

An imperious cruiser, best sampled with vast quantities of diesely torque. Now with better tech and still available in bonkers SVR form

It’s a seductive car, the A5 Cabriolet, and while more dynamically accomplished than its predecessor, it’s still more of a grand touring boulevardier rather than a B-road hustler

An enormously well-rounded true four-seat cabrio… but open cars are all about style. Does this have the right kind?
