car reviews

Ford jumps on the electric crossover bandwagon. Ignore the Mustang branding and you'll find an accomplished car

Among the most complete family cars you can buy for sensible money. As compelling in 2021 as it was when it was launched in 2016

The gen-2 Leaf hits a broad sweet spot of usability, likability and affordability. Can now be had with added range too

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

Success in a hatch isn't just about the drive. The Focus has the rest of the bases well covered too

If you’re not quite ready to go electric yet then you could do a lot worse than the baby Skoda

Peugeot 308 review: fresh design inside and out, with tip-top execution, plenty of tech and better handling

A proper Top Gear hero. Seriously over-delivers on the underpromising price...

Citroen's little crossover has a very useful cabin, and it's more individual than many of its ilk. Pity it's not as comfy as billed

Crossovers are family transit pods. Judged through that lens, the ID.4 is right on target

Another worthy crossover. Comfy, roomy, but not especially interesting

A high-tech showcase of everything BMW can do. Whether we want BMW to be doing this is another question

Peugeot 308 review: fresh design inside and out, with quality execution, lots of tech and more competent dynamics

At last, a small Vauxhall that’s not tedious to drive! Now, just sort out that dated interior

Very popular and with good reason - the Q5 is a posh family crossover done well

It's a BMW 5 Series: very refined, great to drive and features loads of tech

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

The LFA proved there was a mad streak buried deep in the company. The LC proves it wasn’t a flash in the pan

A cult favourite, and with good reason. Fast, fun and frugal, the Mk1 Fabia vRS is a relic of a bygone era

Ford's previous form in crossovers is a bit spotty. Spoiler alert: this one's a good 'un

A predictably sensible bespoke EV from Volkswagen, but a roundly competent one too
