Fun to drive, with a great mix of performance and usability, the BMW 2 Series Coupe is a strong all-rounder

The Toyota bZ4X is a capable family car, but there are more impressive and efficient electric cars out there

The Skoda Peaq is the Czech brand's biggest and most expensive car ever, and is a worthy flagship

The oddly-named bZ4X gets a more practical estate sibling, and depending on your needs, it might be the better buy

If you’re after a pick-up truck that feels smart and sophisticated, the VW Amarok is one of the best options

The key strengths of the original T-Roc have been enhanced with improved quality and tech for the second generation

The Volvo XC60 offers style, luxury and lots of advanced tech

BMW’s hot hatch trades a little fun for massive all-wheel-drive capability and overall, the compromise makes sense

The Skoda Enyaq Coupe is a solid electric family car, but it’s hard to recommend it over the standard SUV

Skoda’s big Superb Estate really is a superb estate. It doesn’t rewrite the rulebook, but it didn’t need to

The MINI Countryman is the brand’s most convincing SUV to date, with a standout interior and petrol or EV power

The bold-looking seven-seat Hyundai Santa Fe delivers lots of space in a striking package

The Suzuki Swift offers plenty of value and efficiency in a dwindling area of the market

The Mazda 3 looks fantastic, drives brilliantly and rides well, though some rivals are more practical all-rounders

The Citroen e-C3 is a cheap French supermini and exactly the sort of small electric car we’ve been waiting for

The Renault Megane E-Tech blends a classic name with up-to-date tech, and the result is a convincing one

Audi's A6 Avant e-tron is an impressive electric estate with excellent performance and range

The Suzuki e-Vitara is Suzuki’s first EV, offering competitive pricing and the option of four-wheel drive

The Nissan Leaf is a very good reimagining of its iconic EV, and it’s our 2026 Car of the Year

Land Rover’s reborn Defender has been a sales hit since it arrived, and subtle revisions haven’t done this 4x4 any harm at all

The Aion UT is being pitched as a Renault 5 rival, but in reality it’s closer in size to larger cars such as the Volkswagen ID.3

Company car users will appreciate the low tax, exceptionally luxurious interior and outstanding refinement of the BMW i5

The Audi Q5 builds on a proven formula with strong comfort, tech and all-round polish

The latest Land Cruiser is built as tough as ever, but you’ll need an equally robust bank account to buy one

Sleek looking A6 Avant estate is comfortable and packed with tech, but boot space isn’t as good as it once was

The Mercedes GLC provides a variety of plug-in hybrid power and some decent tech, but isn’t the best to drive

Spacious compact hatchback relies on petrol power and a long kit list to draw in buyers

The Smart #5 offers a lot of kit and premium quality at a competitive price, we just wish it was more efficient

The Fiat 600 looks the part, has a comfortable ride, and provides plenty of equipment for a reasonable price

The Renault Clio is a star of the supermini class – stylish, well-built, good to drive and packed with tech
