car reviews

Latest generation of the ultimate American go-anywhere 4x4 is the most authentic thing Jeep makes. Off-roaders don’t get gnarlier than this

The latest 5 Series is every bit as brilliant as its predecessor. As you were...

Honestly? The new X2 doesn’t feel like a car BMW spent spent much time or love on

A terrific car, a genuine exponent of light weight and something pleasingly different to drive

If you want to experience the best chassis in the business, it's here. And thankfully the 6cyl is back, too

If you can make use of it, there's nothing to match it

Crossover'd A-Class is an improvement on the old one and will no doubt sell very well. But a GLB is the better choice

Some character's gone AWOL, but it's still astoundingly good to drive yet amazingly easy to live with

An SUV that rightfully ignores sportiness and focuses on comfort, flexibility and downright classiness

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

Lexus presents a hybrid alternative to the standard premium-crossover fare

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

An enormously well-rounded true four-seat cabrio… but open cars are all about style. Does this have the right kind?

Looks good, lowers the heart rate and comes with some reasonably cost-effective engines. A winning combination, slightly fussy facelift details aside

The posh cabriolet market isn't huge. Perhaps the E-Class's utter dominance is to blame

The base engines are gruff, but the handling is as sweet as ever. Very few sports cars are this complete

Like your cars straightforward, fuss-free, and practical? You’ll really like this. (Very) quietly excellent without ever being memorable.

Everything we've come to love about new-age Volvos in a smaller size

A coupe that majors on comfort and luxury. Unless you go for the C63 AMG, in which case it's NUTS

Mercedes nails it. The C-Class cabrio is pleasant to drive but majors on open-top relaxation
