Audi Allroad 3.0 TDI long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 29 December 2008 09:30

Long term update - 29 December 2008 Yes, it really did fit. Even I was amazed when the Allroad swallowed the 6ft fridge freezer I’d bought second-hand when we moved house recently, saving me the hassle and expense of hiring a van. I wondered if the sloping rear window might cause trouble but all I needed to do was jiggle the front ...

GM HydroGen4 green CAR review

Ben Oliver, 11 December 2008 15:30

General Motor’s new HydroGen4 is the latest proof that fuel-cell cars are advancing at an astonishing rate; trouble is, they have so far to go. Hydrogen-powered cars are still light years away from being affordable and practical, but this one comes closer to looking, working and driving like a conventional car than any we’ve yet driven. It deserves your attention; ...

Audi Q5 2.0 TFSI quattro SE S tronic review

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

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 ...

Mercedes ML320 CDI Sport facelift (2008) CAR review

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 28 October 2008 12:00

Huntsville, Alabama; where the back of every single neck is a dead ringer for 'Volcanic Splash 4' from the Dulux colour chart, where family trees have only one branch (‘yew kin divorce me, but yawl alwehs be mah sister…’) and where Mercedes took the ostensibly baffling decision to build the very first M-class back in 1997. Odd decision. After all, ...

Infiniti EX37 (2008) CAR review

Adam Towler, 27 October 2008 10:30

It’s taken four years of planning to realise this Infiniti EX37 launch. Nissan’s Infiniti 'premium brand' is about to make a bridgehead into Europe, and it’s this EX37 SUV-lite experience that it expects to take the majority of sales. Hang on a moment; 'surely there’s some mistake,' you say. Surely, considering the current economic and social climate, a 316bhp, petrol-powered, faux SUV ...

Suzuki Grand Vitara 2.4 (2008) CAR review

James Foxall, 29 September 2008 14:00

Twenty years ago you probably didn’t imagine the Suzuki Vitara to be a ground breaker. But it was. The little 4x4 was the first small Sports Utility Vehicle and as such created a sector in the market that every major car maker would want to join. You’ve got to feel for ’em. Two decades on and Suzuki still makes its ...

Iveco Massif Campagnola (2008) CAR review and video

Richard Aucock, 26 September 2008 09:00

The new Massif is (truck maker) Iveco's passenger 4x4 and the company is aiming for 20 percent of the 4000-strong utility 4x4 sector that Land Rover dominates. It’s interesting because the Massif used to be a Santana which, long ago, was a Spanish-built Series III Land Rover, using a production line shipped over by Solihull. Think of the Iveco Massif as the Defender’s long-lost cousin. ...

Volvo XC60 D5 (2008) CAR review and videos

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 24 September 2008 14:30

Now, what was that movie wherein Dudley Moore played the advertising man whose copy simply told the truth? Can’t remember… But having promoted an airline on the sole basis that it ‘crashed less often than any other’, he went on to immortalise Volvos with the strap-line ‘They’re boxy… But they’re safe’. Now swallowed whole by Ford in America, it was ...

BMW X6 XDrive 35i (2008) CAR review

Greg Fountain, 24 September 2008 12:00

Announcing the launch of the world’s first sports activity coupe is rather like announcing the world’s first six-decker sponge cake – probably quite tasty, but hardly a Jaffa cake moment, and way too tall to enjoy without getting yourself in a right mess. So you don't think much of the BMW X6? I wouldn’t say expectations of the X6 are ...
