AUSTRALIAN SUV REVIEWS

First Fang: Hyundai Veloster Race Car
The angry rasp filling the cabin offers a strong clue that this isn’t your typical Hyundai

First Drive: BMW 2 Series Active Tourer
It’s a BMW, but not as we know it. Think practical, spacious … and not particularly sporty

First Drive: Kia Soul
Hidden somewhere inside this spearmint Tic Tac is the fountain of youth

First Drive: Honda Jazz
Honda hits a higher note with third-generation Jazz city runabout

First Drive: Nissan Navara
A smaller engine and a shorter wheelbase but still a big performer

First Drive: BMW X4
Sporty Bavarian compact SUV arrives with more practicality than expected

First Fang: Peugeot RCZ-R
Peugeot’s new RCZ-R provides plenty of substance to match the style

First Drive: Renault Megane GT-Line (2014)
New-look Megane benefits from specification upgrade and dual-clutch transmission

First Drive: Audi RS5 TDI Concept
Ponch drives an audacious and innovative Audi RS5 diesel prototype in Sweden

First Drive: Mercedes-Benz C-Class Estate
Coming Mercedes-Benz C-Class shows it’s also a class above the opposition in wagon form

First Drive: 2014 Nissan Qashqai
Get used to saying Nissan Qashqai (pronounced ‘Cash-kye’) as the hot-selling crossover has been given a shot in the arm

First Drive: Mazda2 prototype
Carey’s sneak preview of bigger next-gen 2 reveals a potential light-car class leader

Head2Head: Renault Clio RS200 vs Subaru BRZ
Subaru’s must-drive BRZ goes up against Renault’s practical performer

First Drive: Audi A3 Sportback e-tron
Audi plays catch-up with its first plug-in hybrid showroom model

First Drive: Lexus NX
Lexus turns the RAV4 into a Euro-worthy compact SUV

Holden Commodore SS V RS454 Sportwagon review
A Holden dealer has turned up the wick on the Commodore SS V Sportwagon’s 6.0-litre V8, offering 480kW and 920Nm of rubber-smoking, supercharged goodness

Lamborghini Aventador at Phillip Island
So rarefied is the Lamborghini Aventador’s air that only now has MOTOR managed to get its mitts on one

Worlds Apart
MX-5 thought it had the sporty rag-top market all to itself, but not if Mini’s new Cooper S Cabrio has its way

First Fang: Ferrari California T
Ferrari has done away with the old California’s naturally aspirated V8 and replaced it with a twin-turbo version cranking out 412kW and 755Nm. So how does it drive?

Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG review
The sensational Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG ‘Gullwing’ is so much more than a tribute to the brand’s glorious past. It’s a modern classic.

First Fang: FPV GT-F
It’s here! With 351kW, the GT F is the fastest Falcon ever. Unfortunately, it’s also the last Falcon GT ever. So is it a fitting farewell? Or just a tarted-up GT-P?

2010 Audi RS5 review
The RS5 should be just like the glorious old RS4 only sexier and better. But is it?

First Fang: Porsche Panamera GTS
A collective groan must sweep through the engineering department whenever the product planners emerge from a meeting exclaiming “We need a sports limousine!” All the premium car makers are it, attempting to meld the seemingly contradictory qualities of a sports car (agile, lightweight, involving) and a luxury cruiser (big, comfortable, refined) with varying degrees of success.

Mother Truckers
BMW’s new twin-turbo-V8 X5 M isn’t alone in monster-truck land…
