car reviews

An electric car that behaves like a good old-fashioned hatchback. We rather like that

More than just an electric 4 Series GC, this is a 'proper' BMW

With its good looks, well judged handling and competitive pricing, the Ateca remains a strong candidate for your shortlist

A crossover with a point: a practical, fun place to be and quite a spirited drive

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

The electric Astra's still not hugely exciting, but it’s another big step towards EVs becoming the mainstream

Merc’s second crack at a small coupe-ish estate car based on a hatchback… is a good’un

The electric version of the 208 is a mature and accomplished car

Sure, the Honda Accord is about as exciting as oatmeal, but as a quiet, comfortable, efficient daily driver, you could do much, much worse

The Tesla Cybertruck has inexplicable magnetism, causing dumbstruck disbelief and breathless euphoria wherever it goes

Vauxhall took few risks when electrifying the Corsa, and while the facelift has improved the looks, we wish it’d been braver inside

Not a bad effort from Mercedes. Even if the Disco Sport is more likeable and Kodiaq more practical

Simply one of the greatest M cars, jerky gearchanges an' all

The Chevy Colorado impresses with a great powertrain, but lackluster interior materials make this brand-new truck feel old

The MX-30 is an interesting if muddled car, and one not quite as deft to drive as its name suggests

Land Rover stuck to a winning formula with the introduction of the second generation Evoque, and it remains a stylish, accomplished choice

Lucid’s first production car draws an indelible line in the sand for electric cars. Vast performance, even vaster range

A big French hatch might be an oddball choice, but the 508 looks bold, feels good and drives (mostly) well

Volvo's baby SUV does a decent job of being slightly different but entirely acceptable

This is a car that reaches the parts no other can. A symphony of engineering purity, weight-saving purges and mechanical artistry. It will almost certainly never be bettered

Merc's C-Class on stilts impresses as a hybrid, and majors on softness and luxury. Far from cheap, though
