In-depth reviews

The stylish Polestar 2 oozes quality and has a long electric range, but an overly firm ride holds it back

The BMW 3 Series offers fine performance, driving dynamics, technology and refinement, but electric rivals are catching up

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

The KGM Musso is a simple and solid pick-up truck, but it’s let down by an awful ride and dull interior

Constant updates have helped the Isuzu D-Max to keep pace with the pick-up pack

The Renault 4 isn’t just a more practical R5, it has a unique retro charm all of its own

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

The Alpine A290 all-electric hot hatchback is rounded, well priced, and has desirability in spades

The retro-inspired Renault 5 electric supermini is well priced, nice to drive, and has great tech

More eccentric than some rivals, Cupra’s updated Leon is a solid package with some impressive powertrains

The Volkswagen ID.3 is a good electric hatchback overall, but a few niggles hold it back

The Toyota Yaris Cross is a sensible, efficient, and appealing small SUV

Long-running hatchback is a decent all-rounder with value pricing on its side

The E-Class Estate is big on comfort and tech, but it’s no longer a leader in the space race

If you're looking for an all-electric family SUV that will fit effortlessly into daily life, the Skoda Enyaq is an excellent choice

Suzuki’s first EV has price and the option of four-wheel drive on its side

Tight rear passenger space aside, the electric Ford Puma Gen-E is a sound crossover choice

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

Skoda’s flagship still focuses on space and comfort, but now does it all with a touch more class

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

The Hyundai i30 is a well-built and refined family car, but it fails to excite in a class with plenty of dynamic and stylish rivals

The Ford Ranger is as capable as it is upmarket, and you can even have it with a plug

This is a wholesale reimagination of Nissan’s C-segment EV for the better. The new Leaf is very good and built in Britain!

We find the Nissan Micra gets the electric supermini fundamentals right, but we just wish it were more distinctive

The Skoda Elroq is even more appealing than the bigger Skoda Enyaq, and just as brilliant

The Volkswagen ID.7 is the brand’s best EV to date, offering plenty of range and tonnes of practicality

The Volkswagen ID.7 Tourer is a highly practical electric estate that majors on refinement and comfort

There's plenty to like about the new Chery Tiggo 7, especially its attractive price tag

All-electric version of seven-seat SUV is a more compelling option than the E-3008

The Skoda Octavia Estate is an excellent alternative to a family SUV

The roomy and compellingly-priced BYD Dolphin Surf is arguably the Chinese brand's most convincing model yet

The Mazda CX-5 is good to drive, while decent levels of comfort, space and tech help it to challenge the leading mid-size SUVs

The SEAT Ateca is a practical SUV with a dash of genuine sporting flair

The Skoda Karoq provides plenty of practicality as well as all the equipment you could realistically need

Considering its budget roots, the Skoda Octavia feels surprisingly upmarket, yet it’s still practical and spacious

Roomy, well-equipped and stuffed with safety technology, the Honda CR-V is a fine choice for families, albeit a pricey one
