The bones of a competent family SUV, but the lease costs currently price it out of contention

Not without niggles, but it's cheap enough that buyers might take a punt anyway

AMG reinvents the GT as more of a… GT. Quick, composed, versatile and keeps the thunderous V8 alive a little longer

Dacia’s flagship that manages to be both value-for-money and slightly posher than other models. Useful, if not particularly flash

Superb family all-rounder will politely give rivals a bloody nose

One of the automotive woodland's great oaks. As strong as ever, and now with an even better PHEV option

Not as sharply styled as it once was, and its lack of individuality might perturb some. But the car’s core values mostly remain

For the vast majority of us, the 3 Series Touring is all the car we want or need. For the final one per cent there is the M3 Touring

A coupe that'll warm the hearts of traditionalists, but it's a little too closely aligned to the bigger 4 Series Coupe

An eminently sensible spaceship. AI-infused with monster range and dazzling efficiency, but not exactly fizzing with excitement

Handsome, luxurious and with the reassurance of Volvo's reputation for safety. What's not to like?

Finding fault with the A3 Sportback is quite hard. Right now, it’s the most roundly talented premium hatch there is

Unquestionably better than its rather lumpy predecessor... but why not just go for a 3 Series instead?

This was originally meant to be called the new A7, but it’s the standard A6 recipe that we know and really quite like

Mini’s tactic to replace its heartland hatch with a heavy facelift was a gamble, but it seems to have paid off

Exciting looks clothe typical Toyota cleanliness and worthiness. Still a bit bland though

Bigger, but not necessarily better – the new A5 keeps the spirit of the old A4 alive

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

The Mini Cooper is a great little car, overflowing with personality. This one just happens to be electric

VW decided the seven-seat Tiguan needed its own unique treatment… the end result is the Tayron

Skoda’s most desirable family car enters a bold second generation. New styling tinsel hides an otherwise evolutionary step
