car reviews

The GT3’s evolution continues with lessons taken from the RS and S/T. And it’s available with rear seats

Finding fault with the A3 Sportback is quite hard. Right now, it’s the most roundly talented premium hatch there is

Efficient and interesting to look at, but the Yaris is one for the practical head rather than emotional heart

Very, very convincing. Handsome, luxurious, balming and stately. But awesome to drive too

Unquestionably better than its rather lumpy predecessor... but why not just go for a 3 Series instead?

This was originally meant to be called the new A7, but it’s the standard A6 recipe that we know and really quite like

Toyota aims to keep the city car alive by making it a crossover SUV thing. Your nan will like it

The Ford Ranger was already Europe’s best-selling pick-up, and on this evidence it will hold that title for a long while yet

Mini’s tactic to replace its heartland hatch with a heavy facelift was a gamble, but it seems to have paid off

The Bentley Conti GT goes hybrid… and gets better. New found balance and dynamism combine with outstanding waftability

Lancia is back, and the Ypsilon is now a sensible but stylish little supermini

The Taycan Sport Turismo handles as beautifully as it looks. Practicality, on the other hand, is not this estate’s strongest suit

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

Kia proves that forward-thinking needn’t be wacky and that sensible needn’t be boring

At last, Volkswagen has (mostly) fixed the interior and tech. But rivals are cheaper, go further, and come with better cabins

Everything Bentley knows about luxury, wrapped up in an SUV. Not the prettiest, but one of the most complete

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

One of Britain's cheapest EVs has loads of equipment. We wish they'd spent that money elsewhere though

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

The Aceman is there for those that want a Cooper with rear doors and a slightly bigger boot. But it's not a game-changer
