car reviews

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

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

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

Very, very convincing. Handsome, luxurious, balming and stately. But awesome to drive too

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

The Bentley Conti GT goes hybrid… and gets better. New found balance and dynamism combine with outstanding waftability

The Taycan Sport Turismo handles as beautifully as it looks. Practicality, on the other hand, is not this estate’s strongest suit

Kia proves that forward-thinking needn’t be wacky and that sensible needn’t be boring

At last, Volkswagen has (mostly) fixed the interior and tech. But rivals are cheaper, go further, and come with better cabins

Everything Bentley knows about luxury, wrapped up in an SUV. Not the prettiest, but one of the most complete

An Audi for people who like Audis – you could do much worse

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

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

The Omoda 9 is a steady effort with headline-grabbing e-range. But is all that tech enough to make you put up with the forgettable drive?

A high-tech showcase of everything BMW can do. Now with more power and additional range

Not all that novel, but at least the Ariya is well equipped and the interior will win you over

Skoda’s facelifted electric family SUV is better than ever. Smartened looks add to relentless competence

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

A fine, relaxing executive saloon. Provided you’re able to ignore the distracting tech. And coarse four cylinder engine
