With no V8 flagship estate, this six-cylinder hybrid feels like an interim leader, even if it has its own merits

The RS3 has one of the most spectacular engines you'll find in a hot hatch, and the rest is just as good. Is that enough to warrant a £60k+ asking pri…

The Alpine A110 is not long for this world, with its electric replacement due to arrive in 2027 with much more power (and weight).

The 992-generation 911 has taken time to reveal its character, but it’s evolved into a sports car with enormous breadth and ability

We were always huge fans of the Mk7 VW Golf R. That its successor has never quite lived up to its high standards has only underlined how good it was

It looks nicer inside and out and drives a bit better but the Cupra Born doesn’t betray its yawn-worthy MEB underpinning

The S550 appeared ten years ago as a more sophisticated kind of Mustang, in right-hand drive and with the job of tempting European sports car buyers. …

Toyota’s GR Yaris was always brilliant but has received a number of key and welcome updates. It’s even better but also, a lot more expensive.

Audi’s C7-generation RS6 may lack ultimate involvement, but it’s still a crushingly effective and desirable super-estate

The petrol-engined Boxster isn't long for this world, but it still represents the definitive open-top sports car experience

The A45 S packs some of the most impressive numbers seen in a hot hatch, but is it one of the best to drive?

It might be big and ugly, but the second-gen Cayenne is a sporty SUV with real depth and ability – particularly in GTS form

Charismatic, distinctive and above all great to drive – the LC500 was a triumph that showed up more flashy and expensive GTs

Ferrari’s first turbocharged supercar of the modern era was a monumental achievement and now, a bit of a bargain (relatively speaking)

The eighth VW Golf GTI is fast, capable and easy to live with, now with improved if not perfected HMI and driving dynamics

Still not the driver’s car of the class, but the A4 was strong in all other areas
