car reviews

Mildly eccentric and self-consciously French, but underneath its fancy frock it remains an Astra/308 in disguise. It shows

Merc’s new mid-size EV family starts here, and the GLC is an impressive all-rounder aimed at comfort not thrills

The third gen 3008 looks tremendous inside and out. But enough to cost more than a Sportage or Kuga?

DS makes something inevitably different from the German opposition, and surprisingly different from the rest of Stellantis's stuff

The Renault 5 spawns a warm hatch with reasonable results. Just watch the range when the going gets chilly

The #5 looks and feels modern and expensive. The drive is all about comfort, so avoid the powerful versions

No obvious weaknesses, a quantum leap for EVs - proves what’s possible when you start from scratch with today’s tech

Heading into the nearest Stellantis dealer to pick up a generic crossover? You might just have your head turned by the Leapmotor’s £29,995 price tag

It looks like a premium car and it's very practical, but the G6 is still just a bit too generic

There’s life in the executive estate yet. Simpler than a 5 Series, cheaper to buy and run than an SUV, just needs an excitement injection

Toyota is lukewarm at best on EVs, and it shows in this less than mediocre effort with few redeeming qualities

The MG4 Urban isn't bad and it's certainly great value. But in no way is it aimed at people who like cars

An extremely competent electric SUV, but apart from those looks there's nothing to quicken the pulse

All previous Corsas have reeked of mediocrity, but not this one... until you get inside it

An uplifting electric van that's fun to be in and around… but it now looks menacingly expensive versus its first proper rival

An electric SUV that's good to look at and nice to sit in, but at a price

Volvo's baby SUV does a decent job of being slightly different but entirely acceptable

The Grandland Electric does what it says on the tin, but won't knock your socks off

Big, roomy and well-equipped for the price. But even though it's quick, it's not as much fun as some rivals

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

The new EQE SUV fills a gap in the Mercedes range, but doesn't do much else
