Acura MDX (2012) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

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

Rated 3 out of 53

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 ...

Mercedes ML63 AMG (2012) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

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

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

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

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

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 XC60 2.4 D DRIVe (2009) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

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

Rated 3 out of 53

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 ...

Range Rover 5.0 S'charged (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Oliver, 15 July 2009 00:00

Given the current economic and environmental climate, you might have expected Land Rover to give the heavily revised 2010 model-year Range Rover a 2.0-litre engine and a 50% price cut. It hasn’t. Engine capacity is up by a quarter. Power is up 29%. The price goes up too. But Land Rover has to believe that its markets will return, and ...

Audi Q5 2.0 TFSI quattro SE S tronic (2008) review

Rated 3 out of 53

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 27 November 2008 10:34

Well, you do have to admire the attitude… Whilst my colleagues in the media remain determined to talk us all into ‘the forthcoming recession’ just because a pox of relentlessly greedy estate agents have had to give their Minis back and get proper jobs, Audi is having none of it.At the recent 2008 Paris motor show, Audi obersturm gruppenfuhrer Rupert ...

Land Rover Freelander TD4_e Stop/Start (2008) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Guy Bird, 26 November 2008 09:07

Land Rover is going green…honest. The first of its CO2-reducing technologies – the Freelander TD4_e featuring stop/start technology – launches in April 2009 and promises to be the most fuel-efficient Land Rover ever offering 42.2mpg and 179g/km of CO2. The authentic 4x4 brand also claims the Freelander TD4_e is the world’s first SUV to sport an intelligent stop/start system. A ...
