BMW M5 Competition Package (2013) first official pictures

Ollie Kew, 20 May 2013 10:00

BMW has updated the M5 super-saloon alongside the facelifted 5-series range. There are only tiny visual tweaks, but the big news is a new Competition Package version to take the fight to the new Mercedes E63 AMG S. What modifications do M5s fitted with the Competition Package get? More power for a kick-off. Like the regular M5, the Competition is ...

Damion Smy, 19 May 2013 11:00

The BMW 5-series has been facelifted, although you’d be hard pressed to tell on the outside. The most significant changes are under the tweaked skin... So what’s actually been changed? The biggest news is that there’s a new model – the BMW 518d – powered by a 143bhp/265lb ftversion of the 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbodiesel. It’s offered in the saloon and Touring ...

Ollie Kew, 14 May 2013 15:01

This is the new HSV GTS: all 577bhp of it. The V8-powered supersaloon has had a supercharger bolted onto its 430bhp engine, taking power from BMW M3 levels to the same poke as a Mercedes E63 AMG S.

2.5

Ollie Kew, 13 May 2013 16:00

Mercedes has announced the hottest E-class you can buy, the E63 AMG S, will cost from £83,470 in the UK from June 2013. In uprated 'S' guise, the 577bhp/580lb ft exec saloon monster can only be ordered with 4Matic all-wheel drive in left-hand drive markets, but the UK gets only rear-drive cars. CAR has already tried the E63 AMG S in ...

Lexus GS450h (2013) long-term test review

the CAR road-test team, 29 April 2013 10:00

Month 3 running a Lexus GS450h - gripes with the over-complicated infotainment I worry that I'm getting stupider, or that I’m just not bright enough to own a Lexus GS450h in the first place. For me, sitting in the driver’s seat with the manual open, the ignition on and a free hour is one of the joys of getting a new ...

Porsche Panamera GTS (2012) long-term test review

the CAR road test team, 22 April 2013 07:00

Month 8 running a Porsche Panamera GTS: shpuld you buy the diesel Panamera instead? The GTS isn’t faultless, but our only real criticism is its 22mpg thirst. No such trouble with the Panamera Diesel, which won’t dip below 30mpg even when thrashed, will top 40mpg on a cruise, and averages in the mid-to-high 30s – depending on how much thrashing ...

BMW M6 Gran Coupe (2013) CAR review

Ben Barry, 19 April 2013 16:30

This is the new BMW M6 Gran Coupe, a four-door coupe/saloon that slots between the M6 coupe and M5 saloon. It gives Munich a direct rival to the Mercedes CLS 63 AMG (£82k) and forthcoming Audi RS7, and an excuse to add £24k to the M5's sticker price – it'll cost £97,490 when it goes on sale in May. The ...

BMW is applying a top-and-tail facelift to the 5-series GT later this year. The dumpy crossover has been roundly criticised for its awkward looks, but a smattering of 3-series cues will look to revitalise the slow-selling Gran Turismo. BMW 5-series Gran Turismo facelift: can BMW pull a good-looker out of the fire? The body-in-white won’t change, so we’re stuck with ...

Maserati Ghibli (2013) first official pictures

3.5

Ollie Kew, 09 April 2013 10:00

This is Maserati's new sports saloon: the Ghibli. The first ever Maserati to get diesel engine power, the Ghibli will go on sale in autumn 2013, and sit below the Quattroporte super-limo in the Maserati range. Maserati Ghibli: the spec All Ghiblis will be powered by Ferrari-fettled versions of Chrysler’s ‘Pentastar’ twin-turbocharged V6 engines, mounted up front and mated to ...

Skoda Superb facelift (2013) first official pictures

Ollie Kew, 03 April 2013 13:45

This is the new 2013 Skoda Superb, which sports completely redesigned front and rear bodywork, and more frugal powertrains than the outgoing car. What's new under the bonnet of the 2013 Skoda Superb? Stop-start tech and a kinetic energy recovery system (which takes the strain off the engine's alternator by using braking to charge up a capacitor) cuts fuel consumption by up to 19% ...
