Nissan Leaf EV (2011) long-term test review

Nissan Leaf EV (2011) long-term test review

Rated 3 out of 53

the CAR road test team, 08 February 2012 14:00

Nissan Leaf vs VW e-Up – 8 February 2012  Nissan might have been first to launch a mass-produced electric vehicle (it’s my Leaf, if you’re wondering) but the almighty Volkswagen Group is readying its own EVs. In 2013 electric versions of the Golf and Up will go on sale, and I tested a prototype of the latter in Germany last week; the ...

Subaru XV 2.0 D (2012) CAR review

Subaru XV 2.0 D (2012) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 16 January 2012 10:19

The new Subaru XV is a curious thing. Despite the styling iniquities visited on the likes of the once-wholesome Forester and Impreza of late, there is still a tremendous groundswell of goodwill towards Subaru out there. Which makes it all the more difficult to fathom why, far from trying to rekindle the interest of its core customer base by vigorously ...

Honda Civic 2.2 i-DTEC (2012) CAR Review

Honda Civic 2.2 i-DTEC (2012) CAR Review

Rated 3 out of 53

Swindon’s most famous export (aside from Billie Piper) has had a re-boot. The all-new, ninth-generation Honda Civic will go on sale in January 2012, and gently evolves the space-age Civic of 2006 – itself a radical departure from the safe, blue-rinse optimised Civics of old. First impressions count, and oddly some of the most memorable design flourishes which gave the ...

Mini Countryman Cooper D All4 (2011) long-term test review

Mini Countryman Cooper D All4 (2011) long-term test review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

the CAR road test team, 15 December 2011 11:05

Goodbye - 15 December 2011 The Countryman is gone but not forgotten and, whilst I’m not left pining for the little rhino, I may have developed something of a softspot for it. I’m left with mainly memories of the positive attributes of this strange mutant Mini. The interior was always a delight, with the cream leather and headlining making the ...

Toyota FT-86 coupe (2012) CAR review

Toyota FT-86 coupe (2012) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Barry, 28 October 2011 10:55

On 20 May 2011, CAR was allowed behind the wheel of a Toyota FT-86 development mule to get our own driving impressions and to give feedback to Toyota’s engineers during a secretive test session in Germany. Now, as the car is about to be unveiled at the 2011 Tokyo motor show, it’s time to reveal all. Where does the Toyota FT-86 ...

Peugeot 3008 Hybrid4 (2011) CAR review

Peugeot 3008 Hybrid4 (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Tim Pollard, 06 September 2011 08:00

Peugeot Citroen have been showing Hybrid4 concepts for three years now - and finally the wait is over. The new Peugeot 3008 Hybrid4 is here - and we've driven it. UK sales start in November 2011. This is a significant car on numerous counts. It's the first series production diesel-electric hybrid on sale. It's the first time you or I have ...

VW Golf GTI Edition 35 (2011) CAR review

VW Golf GTI Edition 35 (2011) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Chris Chilton, 13 July 2011 09:00

The Edition 35 is Volkswagen’s way of celebrating 35 years of the Golf GTi – it wasn’t the first hot hatch, but it was the first that actually mattered. But as anniversary presents go, is it a diamond ring, or does it feel more like a bunch of garage flowers? Wow, the VW Golf 35! It looks…exactly the same as ...

Renaultsport Megane 265 Trophy (2011) CAR review

Renaultsport Megane 265 Trophy (2011) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Chris Chilton, 11 July 2011 12:00

Renault’s new Megane RS 265 Trophy recently smashed the Nurburgring lap record for front-wheel drive cars. But does that translate into more on-road fun? Read on for our first drive of the new Renaultsport Megane 265 Trophy to find out... I didn’t even know there was a lap record for FWD cars. It’s a bit like hearing that Blackburn reserves beat ...

Audi Q3 2.0 TDI Quattro (2011) CAR review

Audi Q3 2.0 TDI Quattro (2011) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Pulman, 29 June 2011 09:09

This is the new Audi Q3, Ingolstadt’s rival for the BMW X1 and the forthcoming Range Rover Evoque. It’s the smallest Q-series 4x4 yet from Audi, and (at least initially) is only available with a selection of 2.0-litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged and direct-injection engines. Items like an aluminium bonnet and aluminium bootlid are 50% lighter than the conventional steel items, there ...

VW Sharan (2011) CAR review

VW Sharan (2011) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Al Suttie, 02 June 2011 13:00

The new VW Sharan slipped discretely into the MPV marketplace in 2010, replacing a people carrier that had been first launched in 1995. Back in the mid-90s, the Sharan was a product of a joint venture with Ford that saw the original Ford Galaxy, and the Seat Alhambra sharing the same platform. Ford went its own way in 2006, with ...
