Category: Ease of Driving
Driving can be stressful. No matter how much we love getting behind the wheel and seeing an empty ribbon of tarmac stretch out in front of us, cruising on a congested motorway or negotiating a busy high street is our daily routine.
The last thing you need when trying to reach your destination safely and swiftly is a car with a sensitive clutch, awkward gearbox or unpredictable steering. It’s in the ease of driving category that we find the cars that a breeze to pilot and those that are simply draining to drive.
At the top of the chart is a model that’s likely to leave you more relaxed at the end of your journey than you were when you started out.

And that's why our winner is Jaguar’s XF. It offers a smooth shifting automatic gearbox, ample performance, sharp handling and perfectly weighted steering.
It also has excellent all-round parking sensors and the option of a reversing camera to take all the difficulty out of manoeuvring in tight spaces.
Perhaps even more impressive is our second placed model, which does without most of those luxuries. Skoda’s Yeti has earned its silver medal with smart design, great visibility and accurate controls.
