Toyota Auris (2013) CAR review

Jesse Crosse, 04 February 2013 09:05

Toyota GT86, Toyota Auris. Two cars at opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to delivering thrills. While the GT86 has been making headlines, the Auris is universally perceived as, well, the motoring equivalent of kitchen equipment. And we’re not talking Kitchen Aid or Smeg here; we’re talking Morphy Richards. Toyota's 2013 Auris With the new Auris, Toyota is ...

Skoda Rapid (2012) CAR review

Steve Moody, 24 October 2012 15:00

When one of Skoda’s big selling points for the new Rapid is that the car comes with a see-through ice scraper that also doubles as a magnifying glass, you might think they are struggling to find USPs for it. But once buyers have been won over by the advantages of being able to look at ice crystals in slightly more ...

Kia Ceed 1.4 5dr (2012) CAR review

Phil McNamara, 11 April 2012 09:29

Kia’s new Ceed hatchback – which goes on UK sale on 1 June 2012 – wants to make you doubt yourself. Should you really buy that Vauxhall Astra, Renault Megane, Toyota Auris or A.N.Other family hatch, when you could switch to the up-and-coming Korean brand? We’ve driven the entry-level 1.4-litre Ceed (or cee’d as Kia badges it in a crime ...

Hyundai i30 1.6 CRDi (2012) CAR review

Ben Pulman, 14 February 2012 13:00

This is the new Hyundai i30. And it was only in late 2007 that Hyundai launched the first i30, so the fact another one is already upon us rubbishes the industry standard of 6-7 year lifecycles. The first Hyundai i30 (along with its sister, the Kia Ceed) made us start taking the Korean brand seriously, and from ix35 to i40 ...

Toyota Auris HSD (2011) CAR review

2.5

Mark Hamilton, 24 March 2011 07:00

Toyota is proud of the British-built Auris Hybrid, which mates Toyota’s Hybrid Synergy Drive with the Corolla-replacing midsize hatchback. The bumf proclaims: ‘70mpg, 93g/km and a 700-mile range!’ ‘Nothing to see here,’ whispers the standard exterior, with just discrete blue-tinted badging giving the game away. Unlike the Toyota Prius, which proclaims its earth-friendly image with a distinctive eco-car exterior, the Auris Hybrid ...

Honda Civic Si 5dr (2010) CAR review

2.5

Ben Pulman (photography by Paul Barshon), 17 June 2010 06:00

Back in 2006 the conservative Civic was relaunched as a futuristic-looking hatch. But the past four years have helped mellow the sci-fi looks, so to jazz things up Honda has launched an Si-spec Civic. Essentially the Si kit is just a trim level – there are no chassis tweaks, and the kit is available with all the current engine and ...

Chevrolet Cruze 2.0 VCTi (2009) CAR review

Simon Harris, 13 March 2009 09:00

With questions surrounding the future of General Motors, it’s (surprisingly) business as usual for its highest volume brand, which means lots of new metal. We've just driven the Chevrolet Cruze saloon, which arrives in showrooms in July and marks a switch to bolder design, while the platform will spawn a production version of the Orlando MPV, a Cruze-derived hatchback, and of course ...

Renault Megane Coupe 2.0 TCe 180 (2008) CAR review

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 03 November 2008 14:00

Though the front always struck me as a tad clunky and corporate, I’ve long admired the relentlessly shaken and gently stirring rump of this new Renault Megane’s predecessor. Trouble is, it seems that the majority of Britons, along with all too many Italians, have not… Why not? What's wrong with the Renault Megane? Renault makes no bones about the fact ...

Kia Ceed 1.6 Hybrid (2008) CAR review

2.5

Jesse Crosse, 22 September 2008 14:00

Kia has changed almost beyond recognition over the last few years, from a low-cost Korean brand to a maker of well-made European-designed cars that can hold their own with the best of them. Now it’s launching a full-scale attack on the advanced environmental technologies too, with plans to launch a hybrid first in the Korean market and later in Europe. ...

Mercedes B170 NGT (2008) gas powered CAR review

Christopher Hubbard, 25 June 2008 12:47

The initials at the end of Mercedes-Benz B 170 NGT do not stand for No Green Technology. That’s just a rumour. BMW may be thrashing Mercedes in the environmental PR stakes just now, but it doesn’t mean the big M isn’t trying. The B 170 NGT is a B-Class with a conscience. And a boot full of Natural Gas… So, ...
