car reviews

The first purpose-built Skoda EV nails the brief. Incredibly convincing alternative to its VW group rivals

The most involving, joyous 992. It just makes you want to drive. What more can a sports car do?

Yes, it’s a rubbish ‘car’... because it isn’t one. But it is fun to use and an entirely loveable object

Sportiness is all well and good, but there’s no harm in prioritising comfort and serenity. The e-C4 is one such car

More fun than a crossover, roomy, comfortable, efficient and importantly, it's got character and is likeable

A solid electric car for people who are looking for a solid electric car experience

The EQS SUV does it all but it lacks the character and supreme authority that makes the Range Rover such a lodestar

Few buyers will make full use of all the Defender's abilities, but it's a family car that’ll make you feel adventurous

The Cupra Ateca is quick, practical and handles pretty well. But it suffers in comparison with its younger, smarter sibling

Audi’s fast five-door family estate now has more brains to go with all that brawn, making it a consummate all-rounder

Costly but good quality, comfort focused EV. The car that should have introduced Genesis to Europe

It might be a more 'accessible' Ferrari, but don't be fooled - something of an assassin still lurks within

The most powerful hot hatch in series production operates unobtrusively when you don’t demand much from it, and goes properly feral when you do

What the Crosstrek lacks in power and tech it makes up for with butch capability and excellent on-road comfort

Some character's gone AWOL, but it's still astoundingly good to drive yet amazingly easy to live with

A thoroughly capable all-round coupe. But not a purebred Toyota

A decent car that struggles to stand out with strong competition from within its own family

The Silverado is clearly a front-runner pickup, with user-friendly tech, amenities and engines with great prowess

The electric future’s looking very bright for Rolls-Royce. Very probably the finest car in the world

The Arona is a decent enough small crossover, but a Leon hatch is better looking, roughly the same size, and only slightly more expensive

While it might not have the visual pizazz of its predecessor, the 11th-generation Honda Civic reminds us it’s what’s inside that counts
