Range Rover Sport prototype (2013) CAR review

Ben Oliver, 02 May 2013 13:30

Our first chance to drive the new Range Rover Sport has come sooner than we might have expected. It had its world debut at the New York auto show a month ago, yet here we are in the UK at Land Rover's Gaydon test track, looking at a prototype with its driver's door open and engine running. While we'd reiterate ...

Acura MDX (2012) CAR review

Ben Barry, 17 September 2012 09:30

Think of a seven-seat SUV and the chances are that a Land Rover Discovery or BMW X5 will pop into your head. Not a Honda, though, because Honda doesn’t sell one, not in the UK at least. However, it does in North America, where it offers both the Honda Pilot and the related Acura MDX. We’re testing the Acura in ...

Range Rover Evoque Si4 Dynamic (2012) CAR review

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 29 June 2012 09:40

Given that a unique combination of battle cruiser-imperious boulevard behaviour and leap-tall-buildings-at-a-single-bound off-road capability remains an absolutely mandatory requirement of anything sporting a Range Rover badge (even if most owners would never contemplate the latter for fear of scuffing the paintwork or giving the Shitzhu undue cause for queasiness), a certain frisson of excitement always attends the impending gleam of ...

Audi Q3 2.0 TDI 138bhp FWD SE (2012) CAR review

3.5

Tim Pollard, 27 March 2012 14:21

The Audi Q3 has only been around for a year, but the company continues to spin off variants at an alarming rate as it scatters new product into every which niche in the market. So here we have the latest Q3 model on test: a front-wheel drive, lower-powered 2.0-litre turbodiesel mustering 138bhp and with a simple stick shift (the pics ...

Mercedes ML63 AMG (2012) CAR review

Jed Maxwell, 18 January 2012 10:00

Mercedes claims to have invented the original performance 4x4 with its ML55 AMG in 1999. This Mercedes ML63 AMG is the third generation of the German firm’s hot off-roader and, despite the eye-watering fuel consumption and price tag, its predecessors have gained a loyal following with more than 24,000 leaving showrooms. The new Mercedes ML63 AMG goes on sale inthe UK July ...

VW Touareg 3.0 TDI (2010) CAR review

3.5

Greg Fountain, 06 September 2010 10:30

Early adopters of the 2010 VW Touareg will see their cars being delivered from October onwards. And for some reason they will not be hated quite so fiercely as those who’ve ordered a Porsche Cayenne, even though the cars are broadly the same underneath and are, in the view of those with beards, equally reprehensible.Leaving the matter of planet salvation ...

Skoda Yeti 1.8 TSI SE (2009) CAR review

3.5

Tim Pollard, 26 October 2009 11:48

Skoda does a good line in half sizes. The Octavia is a bit bigger than Focus types, but not as chunky as a Mondeo. And so the new Skoda Yeti is larger than its Fiat Panda looky-likey, but not quite as big as the Nissan Qashqai-set soft-roaders it’s aimed at. It’s a handy point of distinction and the Yeti looks ...

Volvo XC70 DRIVe (2009) CAR review

Ben Barry, 27 August 2009 11:07

On looks alone, this Volvo XC70 may seem like old news, yet it puts a whole new twist on the urban off-roader theme. Why? Because, despite the jacked-up stance, it’s actually front-wheel drive. What’s happened to the 4x4 version? Don’t panic, it’s still on sale. The front-wheel drive XC70 has been introduced along with a front-drive XC60, both cars being ...

Volvo XC60 2.4 D DRIVe (2009) CAR review

Ben Barry, 20 August 2009 10:50

The two-wheel drive SUV might sound like an oxymoron, but it’s a trend that’s catching on – BMW’s X1 will be available with rear- and four-wheel drive drivetrains, and the previously all-wheel drive-only XC60 can now be had in front-wheel drive too. That’s the car we’re driving, in 2.4D DrivE SE Lux spec. And the point of the front-wheel drive ...

Range Rover Sport 5.0 Supercharged (2009) CAR review

Glen Waddington, 18 August 2009 09:00

If you’re a regular CAR Online visitor, you may already have read Ben Pulman’s report on the newly revised Range Rover Sport TDV6. So I’ll keep the news about the Sport’s general upgrades brief and concentrate on the headline news about this model: its new 5.0-litre supercharged V8. Thought that might prick up your ears. Does this new supercharged Range ...
