car reviews

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

Mini-me EQS that's comfier than its big brother. Would be more relaxing if the tech was less overwhelming

Merc’s second crack at a small coupe-ish estate car based on a hatchback… is a good’un

Sure, the Honda Accord is about as exciting as oatmeal, but as a quiet, comfortable, efficient daily driver, you could do much, much worse

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

Ignore the grille, what lies behind makes the M3 the most complete sports saloon on sale today

The EQS SUV does it all but it lacks the character and supreme authority that makes the Range Rover such a lodestar

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

Light on practicality, but otherwise the most complete sports estate available today. And one of the best electric cars, too

Interior furnishing and screen systems take priority over how it drives. Many love it for that, but not us

Audi’s heartland hero might not have the hustle of a BMW 3 Series Touring, but it’s plenty competent and got refinement on its side

The Audi A6 Avant makes a compelling case for itself, but doesn’t quite match up to the all-round excellence of the BMW 5 Series Touring

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

Still feels like the odd one out in the BMW family. Roomy and well-appointed, but doesn’t drive well enough or offer clever solutions for family motoring

It's comfy, it drives well, it's got performance *and* eco options... There's really not much to criticise

It's a BMW 5 Series: very refined, great to drive and features loads of tech

It’s a seductive car, the A5 Cabriolet, and while more dynamically accomplished than its predecessor, it’s still more of a grand touring boulevardier rather than a B-road hustler

One of the best luxury cars money can buy: this really is a bit of an all-round superstar
