BMW X6M
Reviews

2015 BMW X6M review

Niche within niches is a peculiarly German phenomenon, as the BMW X6M hammerhead proves. Now in its second-gen guise, the SUV flagship offers more power yet greater efficiency. But the point of it isn’t any clearer

Better to drive as well as to behold, the sixth-gen, sedan-only Liberty’s massive price drop makes it a must-have on anybody’s medium-car shortlist – but is that enough to reverse a long term decline?

2015 Suzuki Celerio review

Suzuki is attempting to crack the Micro segment with a new-generation sub-B hatch called Celerio. Dreary design and daft badge aside, the five-door runabout represents a real leap forward from the patchy Alto it replaces, and is cheap to boot.
