Kia Ceed 1.4 5dr (2012) CAR review

Kia Ceed 1.4 5dr (2012) CAR review

Rated 2 out of 52

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 ...

Ford Focus 1.0 Ecoboost (2012) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

A Ford Focus with a 1.0-litre engine! Isn’t that like getting Charles Hawtrey to compete for World’s Strongest Man, or sending Samson into battle after a crewcut? In one of the most extreme downsizing examples yet, Ford has plumbed an all-new, turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine into its family hatch, all 1.2-odd tonnes of it. The 1.0-litre Ecoboost is available to ...

Fiat Panda 0.9 TwinAir (2012) CAR review

Fiat Panda 0.9 TwinAir (2012) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

This is Fiat’s third-generation Panda, which goes on UK sale in February 2012. Fiat has buffed up interior quality and features over the outgoing car’s, and plumbed in the TwinAir two-cylinder turbo engine, which was the version we drove. This being a city car and us being CAR magazine, we perversely took the Panda as far from its natural habitat ...

Mercedes B200 Sport (2012) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Coldplay: with their catchy melodies and inoffensive lyrics, those lovely British lads epitomise mainstream rock music. Now I reckon there’ll be a lot of Coldplay-ed in the new 2012 Mercedes B-class. Both are middle-class, family-friendly and rather safe. Apparently, the B-class MPV (or sports tourer in Merc-speak) is the most extensive new model update in Benz’s history, adopting a new ...

Citroen DS5 Hybrid4 (2012) CAR review

Citroen DS5 Hybrid4 (2012) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Phil McNamara, 29 December 2011 19:00

The DS5 is Citroën’s most innovative car since the 1970s. It’s a beautiful, five-seat family car that looks like the lovechild of an MPV and an estate, and it bloods Peugeot-Citroën’s unique diesel/hybrid powertrain. The result should be a hatchback with a decent turn of pace, extraordinarily low fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and running costs, and a desirability unmatched in ...
