Saloon car reviews

Everything Tesla has done up to this point has built towards the Model 3... and it's been worth it

This new AMG C63 feels as much a rolling scientific experiment as it does a sports saloon

A big French saloon might be an oddball choice, but the 508 looks bold, feels good and drives (mostly) well

One of the automotive woodland's great oaks. Stronger, crispier and all-roundier than ever before

Bold, interesting and expensive. It's a niche but exotic alternative to the norm

Screw ‘high-performance’ SUVs. Get one of these instead, and pretend you’re a Parisian assassin

Kia’s rare sports saloon is hardly sophisticated, but it’s a laugh to drive and mega value for money

The quickest M5 ever is also the comfiest M5 ever. Maybe the most complete super saloon of them all

Big, quiet, interesting looking saloon with attractive pricing. But it’s nowhere near as satisfying to drive as the cars it competes against

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

Lucid’s first production car draws an indelible line in the sand for electric cars. Vast performance, even vaster range

Stuttgart’s first EV is a proper Porsche – massively fast, great to drive, quick to charge and practical enough to use every day

It's comfy, it drives well, it's got performance *and* eco options... There's really not much to criticise

An icon of the sports saloon world. Still irresistibly suave 25 years after it first launched

Ignore the grille, what lies behind makes the M3 the most complete sports saloon on sale today

One of those classic ‘nice if you like to stand out from the herd’ cars. More relaxed than sporting, but will anyone notice?

A perfectly adequate family barge, but a weak petrol engine line up and changing consumer preferences means likely for not much longer

You might never fall in love with it, but nor will you find yourself shaking your fists at it in a moment of Fawlty-esque existential despair

Don’t fancy a German four-door? There’s an updated, eccentric Italian alternative... but you need to really want one.

The most convincing DS. Tried all the German best-sellers? Here’s a thoughtful alternative

Alfa's love letter to the fast saloon doesn't make rational sense, but it doesn't matter: it's very, very special
