car reviews

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

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

Looks slick, drives adroitly, and bigger engines and bougier specs see it shine brightest, of course. Pity the tech spoils it

Audi’s best-selling model is back for a third generation, but we miss the old interior

Many of the talents you expect from an electric car, and many more that so far are unique in EVs. A new and brilliant chapter

A well rounded, complete, comfortable car with a calming temperament that makes it a pleasure to waft about in

The updated RS3 is the best one yet. Although you’ll need to spend time getting the best out of it

A heroically talented go-anywhere, do-anything family SUV. Just be sure you *need* this much space and ability

The world’s best-selling car gets a serious update in this second-generation. But is it enough to keep it at the top of the charts?

A handsome saloon or estate that doesn’t try too hard to be an aero car

A six-cylinder sports drop-top sports car with a six-speed manual gearbox is a rare thing these days. The looks? That's up to you

Superb family all-rounder will politely give rivals a bloody nose

An uplifting electric van that's fun to be in and around. Could it break the SUV mould?

Celebrate the fact the Mustang lives on while you can. Seventh generation remains as desirable as ever

It's as solid as ever, but some cheap plastics and a ponderous petrol engine have let the side down a bit

Audi’s version of the electric Porsche Macan is a tour de force of waftiness. Just don’t ask for more from it than that

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

Audi's model mash-up project has lost a little something along the way

The ID.7 lacks a bit of style, but at least VW has nailed the basics this time
