Saloon car reviews

Toyota’s latest Camry offers up buckets of hybrid-powered range and an equal amount of comfort to help enjoy it all

Sold in a trickle when new and was widely seen as flawed… now a resto’d one will go for £100k

Smart styling and lots of tech from BYD’s flagship saloon, but it isn’t as sophisticated to drive or operate as it is to look at

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

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

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

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

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

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?

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

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
