car reviews

A coupe that'll warm the hearts of traditionalists, but it's a little too closely aligned to the bigger 4 Series Coupe

BMW’s Icarus moment. The XM tries to be a luxury SUV and an ultimate M car with a hybrid conscience, but fails to convince as a whole.

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

Goes, stops, and steers like a proper M special. No compromise in practicality

For the vast majority of us, the 3 Series Touring is all the car we could use or want. For the final one per cent there will soon be the M3 Touring

One of the automotive woodland's great oaks. Stronger, crispier and all-roundier than ever before

It's refined, as good to drive as any small SUV and decently made and equipped

The BMW i3 is the best small premium EV out there. Or it will be until production ends for good

The quickest M5 ever is also the comfiest M5 ever. Maybe the most complete super saloon of them all

The X3 has never done BMW much credit, but the current one is a thorough enough job to take on the class best

Still feels like the odd one out in the BMW family. Roomy and well-appointed, but doesn’t drive well enough or offer clever solutions for family motoring

It's comfy, it drives well, it's got performance *and* eco options... There's really not much to criticise

BMW’s four-wheel-drive-only four-seat convertible, now with a fabric roof and some serious chops when it comes to going fast. That’ll be the 500+ bhp, then

Nothing in the BMW range - nor any rival factory - stretches a band across the three legs of drivability, style and practicality like the 4 Series Gran Coupe

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

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

BMW's made a rival to the Golf GTI - and quite possibly beaten it

This swaggering 616bhp monsterwagen is what we get instead of an M5 Touring

Life's pretty great inside the new 4, not just because you don't have to look at it

A big-mile GT bruiser that feels hugely impressive, if not outright exhilarating

A brash, addictively brilliant sports car. But is it truly £75,000-worth of ‘brilliant’? Hmm…
