THERE’S posh, and then there’s the kind of quiet, confident luxury that can possibly slip under the radar. The Genesis Electrified GV70 belongs firmly in the latter camp. It doesn’t have a badge that screams status or a grille that looks like it’s trying to inhale pedestrians. Instead, it wafts onto the scene with the sort of serene self-assurance that … Read the rest
IT’S hard not to admire Kia’s confidence these days. The brand’s line-up now stretches from small electric crossovers to the mighty EV9, but the Sorento sits right in that sweet spot where family practicality meets long-haul comfort. For 2025, it’s been given a significant refresh — sharper styling, smarter tech and a cabin that looks like it’s been nicked straight … Read the rest
EVERY so often a new car brand arrives claiming to have cracked the electric SUV formula. Sleek looks, superfast charging, loads of tech and a whisper-quiet cabin — the promise is always the same.
The Xpeng G6 is the latest to make that pitch, a Chinese-built EV that wants to stand toe-to-toe with Tesla’s Model Y and the Hyundai Ioniq 5. On … Read the rest

I get what they’re aiming at though; Honda had, for a long time, been seen as the marque of the middle-class, middle-aged, Geography teacher – although with … Read the rest
THE Mustang Mach-E was Ford’s first foray into the fully-electric SUV market and I can’t help but wonder why they decided to give it the name “Mustang” – because it clearly isn’t a Mustang.
The Mach-E Mustang is about as close to the V8 muscle-car as a Linda McCartney Veggie Burger is to a Wagyu Beef Burger. One is trying … Read the rest
What is it?
The new Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace Match is a more spacious version of the standard Tiguan and designed for those with a bigger family or a bigger sense of adventure – or maybe both. A more stylish alternative to the traditional MPV, it’s 215mm longer than the standard Tiguan and offers to put an extra two backsides on seats … Read the rest
THE Volkswagen Polo has been around in the UK since 1975 and in that time we Brits have bought more than 1.4 million of them.
