car reviews

A Mazda like no other, but there are glimmers of the firm’s dynamic sparkle if you look hard enough

The new Vauxhall Frontera does a lot right for the price, making the cheaper EV hard to overlook

The Vauxhall Frontera Electric stands out for its VFM price tag, but it's got more going for it too

A truly formidable achievement that's as amiable on road as it is astonishing on track

A sensible hybrid family estate with the fuel-sipping ability of a camel. Doesn't mean we have to love it...

Spain’s strongest attempt to out-Golf the Golf yet. A stylish, well equipped and cheaper version of its German cousin

The latest Toyota RAV4 is on track to continue the badge’s legacy of versatility for an affordable price

Unpick the cringey slogans on the doors and you’ve got yourself a roomy, sensibly-priced and comfortable take on a supermini

Suzuki’s first electric car prides itself on its rugged off-road chops, but is flawed in a few key areas

The Polo GTI hangs on in a world where petrol-powered hot hatches are a dying breed, but we'd still like a little more flair

Wholly different from the hybrid C-HR, but does just the same job. Only it's electric

A supermini survivor that blends diverse powertrains with strong design

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

Top spec models are well equipped and massively capable off-road (particularly the AT35), but on road it’s still rough around the edges

The AMG One delivers on the dream of an F1 engine in a road car. It’s simultaneously flawed, an ill-advised folly and one of the most fascinating machines ever made

Future-proofed European Jeep is a pretty blameless car and well priced. But it feels like a box-ticking exercise to us

Nissan has turned over a new Leaf. Yup, inevitable headline is justified by the facts

Like the sedan, the Toyota Corolla Cross is functional and affordable, but little more

By focusing on luxury over performance, the Cadillac Lyriq succeeds as a useful, comfortable and elegant electric SUV

Quirky, comfortable hatchback and cheaper than most rivals. Perhaps the e-C3 is more interesting, though

European design and engineering means it looks and drives better than rival Chinese-brand crossovers. But not enough to overcome annoying screen and inefficiency
