car reviews

A mid-life facelift improves an already convincing car – it's neater looking and better driving than basically every crossover you can think of

Ticks all the grown-up sensible boxes and looks this flipping special. Tesla’s worst nightmare

The latest Mazda CX-5 is a familiar recipe, the verve of its predecessor has gone AWOL

A cleverly packaged and efficient little EV, that also happens to have some proper character

Smooth, capable, practical and well made, the Outlander PHEV is an antidote to pretty much everything else of a similar size. Why did it ever leave the UK?

Audi’s best-selling model is back for a third generation, but we miss the old interior

We wonder what Peugeot and Vauxhall bosses think of the B05. It goes further than their electric hatches and costs less

Forgettable to look at, lacking in dynamic talent, and no cheaper than rivals. Avoid the electric versions

The Citroen e-C3 is a charming little goofball. The fact that it’s comfy and impressively cheap will only make you love it more

A Scandi four-door GT with over 400 miles of real-world range and Porsche 918 Spyder levels of power. The Taycan needs to watch its back

Noisy and inefficient in its pure combustion form. Omoda's first car to the UK is certainly not its best work

This might be one of the few coupes you’d choose over the SUV – it’s rangier and the roofline doesn’t decimate headroom

Everything you need is in the Dacia Duster, and a lot of what you don't, isn't. Good

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

The Volvo EX60 majors in connectivity, quality, practicality, and safety – that the iX3 is superior to drive is neither here nor there

The new T-Roc will impress owners of the old T-Roc – and there are plenty of them

Uh oh, Nissan has gone from an EV pioneer to a lazy plagiarist. The Micra is a good car, but only because it's an imitation of a brilliant one

No slouch and an impressive plug-in hybrid, but it won’t put a smile on your face like the GTI

More than half of the W223 S-Class has been updated and refined for 2026. But it's not perfect…

The 7 might just be Omoda’s best car yet. It’s not perfect, but the price will worry mainstream manufacturers

Unmemorable to anyone interested in cars, but it's spacious inside and gets lots of wow-factor kit... plus, this latest version is less rubbish than before
