car reviews

The new Scenic is spacious, efficient, light and good-looking. But did Renault have to pinch the name from its fondly-remembered MPV?

The Austral is well trimmed, feels high tech, and uses little fuel. If you want a hybrid crossover, it's a good choice

A desirable family hatch that just happens to be electric. Fantastic interior, too

One of the better-driving superminis. The Clio gets very little wrong, there just isn't much we love about it

Rear-steering Megane RS has a charm, if you like your hot hatches firm, edgy and demanding attention

Renault mends the bits that needed mending and leaves the bits that didn’t. A big step forwards

The Arkana doesn't excel anywhere and ultimately feels too clinical

Y’know the latest Clio, yeah? Like that. But bigger. Roomier. And more expensive

Not the most compelling hatch, but as a car for real family life, it could be brilliant

A good-looking van with so many variants you're bound to find one that fits

Utterly magic. There’s simply no evading the fact this thing is spectacularly good to drive

Renault’s Qashqai rival is conveniently a rebodied… Qashqai. A fine appliance for family transport

Keep the spec simple and you have a roomy, good value car. Renault's second go at a Koleos is a big step on

Renault has tried something different with the Twingo, and it's worked

Renault has rediscovered its form with a loveable car in a class that lacks them

Renault appears to have detached itself from reality. Doesn't stop us from thinking the Twizy is genius

It's not the car it was, the Renaultsport Clio. Still fast, with a nice chassis, but not a patch on before
