VW Touareg 3.0 Hybrid (2010) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Georg Kacher, 02 August 2010 13:52

When the original Mk1 VW Touareg was released in 2002, CAR Magazine drove it across North Africa and even let the real Tuareg tribespeople have a go in it across the Sahara. Now our own Georg Kacher has had a go in the latest hybrid version. 4x4=bad, but hybrid 4x4=good? This is the first VW to use the same hybrid technology as the Porsche Cayenne. The big VW ...

Infiniti FX50 CAR (2008) review

Rated 3 out of 53

Georg Kacher, 05 May 2008 14:21

The Infiniti FX50 will be the upmarket Japanese brand’s most expensive car when the company launches into Europe in autumn 2008. At an estimated £50k and with big 4x4s about as popular as a Cadbury's teapot right now, it’s a brave move. Don't forget, Infiniti isn’t aimed at the conservative luxury market like Lexus. Instead Nissan’s luxury brand is targeting ...

Mercedes GLK350 (2008) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Georg Kacher, 21 April 2008 09:43

It's been a long wait, but we've finally driven Mercedes' new junior off-roader, the GLK. And we can confidently say Stuttgart’s latest offering is an off-roader because CAR has been mud-plugging in the GLK - and beating its big brother M-class driven by Mercedes’ own instructors. Still, the GLK has to prove an awful lot if it’s to compete in ...

VW Tiguan 2.0 TDi (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Georg Kacher, 24 September 2007 01:38

Why is VW so late to the 4x4 party? Blame management, complicated model cycles and just about every other excuse under the sun. And speaking of the sun, those countries from the land of the rising sun have been doing the medium-sized 4x4 thing since the mid-1990s. Toyota launched the Rav4 over a decade ago, let's not forget. Only this ...

Mercedes GL500 (2006) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Georg Kacher, 02 August 2006 03:23

I'm imagining loads of huge new Benzes appearing at random, a different one wherever I look… Calm down. Deep breath. You're not hallucinating - there really are new Mercs every which way at the moment. And they just seem to get be getting bigger and bigger. But why? What? How? Let's recap. The new ML has been with us for ...

Porsche Cayenne Turbo S (2006) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Georg Kacher, 24 July 2006 02:02

The Porsche Cayenne Turbo, doyen of the noveau riche and Premiership footballers. What's new about this? This is no 'ordinary' Cayenne Turbo, not that there's much ordinary about a 444bhp SUV that hits 62mph from stop as fast as a Lamborghini Countach. But check out that Turbo S designation. Porsche has created an even faster, even more brutal, even pricier, ...
