Saloon car reviews

Jaguar XE review: At ease, the baby Jag is a good ‘un. Good job, because there’s a lot riding on it...

Another safe and sensible saloon from the Volvo team. Which mixes Swedish style with good engines

Minor styling tweaks apart, the Skoda Rapid and Seat Toledo are the same car, but we somehow think it works better as a Skoda

Latest Jetta is a marked improvement, but still dull as ever

Infiniti puts itself on the radar of 3-Series buyers with the impressive Q50 junior exec

A handsome, competent car that's ideal for those who can't afford a Merc CLS or for anyone who simply wishes to drive something more stylish than a 5-Series

Kia has always floundered in this sector, but no more. The Optima is good enough to forgive the so-so name...

Odd-looking CLA is more flawed than we'd ever expect from Merc in 2016

The facelift in 2012 seems to have worked for Toyota's Avensis. Tragically dull, but not without merit

Ford Mondeo review: looks a bit like the old one but brings solid gains in comfort and tech. Back at the competitive sharp end.

Able, stylish i40 aims to take on the establishment with a blend of good looks, ability and keen pricing
