car reviews

Exciting looks clothe typical Toyota cleanliness and worthiness. Still a bit bland though

A refined and good looking little car, at home in the city and suburbs. The price is a little stiff though

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

MG's on the move – the ZS has come back transformed (and still cheap)

Everything you need is in the Dacia Duster, and a lot of what you don't, isn't. Good

The Symbioz is a perfectly fine family runabout, but lacks a little sparkle in an ever-crowded sector

The best supermini to drive, and arguably the class leader. But the supermini class isn’t what it once was and the Clio is missing its joie de vivre

The new MG 3 deserves its place at the supermini table. Good to drive, frugal to run, and cheap as they come

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

The new Kona Electric is just as competent as before, but with more of all the good stuff. Well done Hyundai

A proper Top Gear hero. Seriously overdelivers on the underpromising price...

Mazda’s oft-overlooked Corsa rival isn’t a bad all-rounder, but is let down by its weak naturally aspirated engine range

Makes no promises it cannot keep, and absolutely nails the brief Dacia set for it: simple, spacious motoring for pennies on the pound. Now with added refinement

Remains one of the best all-round, reasonably priced EVs you can buy today

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

A car that used to be purely sensible now lets some style into the mix. Not perfect, but wholeheartedly good value for money

Perhaps the most sensible and straight-laced SUV on sale. Which might just be exactly what you're looking for

The Vitara isn't the coolest crossover on sale, but there's still some fun to be had. More to like here than you might expect

It's cheap, sure, but the rest of it won't make you run away screaming

The Leon Cupra has come of age. The mix of civility and pace is as good as anything out there

It's easy to see why this is many people's default hot hatch
