KIA have recently brought their best-selling family SUV bang-up-to-date with a radical new look that makes the 5th-generation Sportage a bit of a stunner both inside and out. Taking design cues from the all-electric EV6, the new Sportage is striking from both front and rear with sharply contoured boomerang-like LEDs at the front and a […]
SUZUKI is always a manufacturer you can rely on when it comes to value for money with no compromise on tech – especially if you’re after a reliable 4×4 that won’t break the bank. Sitting between the Vitara and the Across is the new Suzuki S-Cross that is a perfectly-sized SUV for the growing family. […]
AS I’ve mentioned in previous articles, welcoming a Volvo into my life has always been a moment of joy. Always stylish, always clever and always a calming, relaxed and stress-reducing driving experience. However, the fully-electric XC40 Recharge model was causing me some concern as I eyed it up on my driveway. . .Not because I […]
IF ultimate refinement along with unbeatable practicality is your idea of SUV nirvana, then the Mercedes-Benz GLS is likely to be on your shortlist. Eye-watering prices aside, the Rolls Royce Cullinan and Bentley Bentayga may offer even more refinement, but with the Mercedes boasting a full 7-seats, it ultimately takes the win. Only the BMW […]

Once the “black-ops” department for Volvo, Polestar sexed-up and beefed-up the Swedish brand for a number of years before finally becoming a marque-unto-itself – although still owned by Volvo […]
THE BMW X5 xDrive45e Hybrid is a full-sized SUV that packs a 3.0-litre 6-cylinder petrol engine alongside BMW’s fourth-generation hybrid technology which provides a generous 24kWh electric battery. This means the new Beemer is capable of a very useful 54 miles on battery power alone – more than enough for the average commute of just […]
SUBARU have a way of making a vehicle that you immediately trust to get the job done, whether it’s bring the kids home from school or take the other sort of kids to market – and while the XV model is aimed firmly at the family rather than the farmer, it’s good to know that […]
OUTWARDLY, the latest Suzuki Vitara hasn’t had to change a great deal from the previous one and that’s mostly because people like it very much, thank you. But the Japanese manufacturer have never been one for letting the grass grow beneath its wheels – and with the likes of the SEAT Arona, Kia Stonic and […]
