Saloon car reviews

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

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

The ID.7 lacks a bit of style, but at least VW has nailed most of the basics this time around

A facelift for the Model 3 comes just in the nick of time to nudge it back ahead of rivals

BMW i5 is part car, part ecosystem. Even so, it’s rewarding to drive and the cabin is world class

Take one Mercedes A-Class, subtract practicality, add style

An Audi RS that nails its basics but also sprinkles in some genuine fun. A proper E63 and M5 rival

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

Smart styling and deft to drive, but this is an EV you'll buy with your head rather than heart

Sound the fanfare, it's a rear-drive Alfa that's rather good indeed. Updated tech helps too

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

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

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

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

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