AUSTRALIAN SUV REVIEWS

Jetta engine choices expand
Volkswagen has introduced a mid-life spruce up to its current Jetta sedan range in Australia

Lexus RX450h
Let’s take this one day at a time and see how it goes

Review: Audi A7
Audi’s MY13 A7 delivers most of the things an MY12 owner might wish for, plus some bonuses, but the steering’s still a bit weird.

Review: Audi R8
The R8 supercar is the best thing that has ever happened to Audi.

Review: HSV Range
The company that claims to make Holden vehicles special has lived up to its promise with the introduction of its latest Gen-F line-up.

First drive: Isuzu MU-X
Isuzu clearly knows when it’s onto a good thing. Riding on the D-Max’s wave of success – which is up 30 percent year on year – the Japanese brand will launch its first SUV, the MU-X, in Australia next month. And we’ve been driving it.

First drive: Volvo S60 Polestar
Swedish tuning aces turn a Volvo into a driver’s car

2009 Honda Civic hatch review
UK-built five-door has lots to offer Oz buyers … for a price.

LAUNCHED: Audi S4
Supercharged V6 replaces atmo V8, but no sympathy cards required.

A5 Sportback
The latest step in fast-moving Audi’s global product strategy is the A5 Sportback – a hard-to-describe model lobbing into a new segment.

Abarth Punto Evo
Scorpion badge brings sting to Fiat’s hatch

Review: Nissan Pulsar
OCCASIONALLY the backstory is more intriguing than the subject itself. Welcome, then, to the fall and rise of the Pulsar, dormant after seven long years of the spectacularly unsuccessful C11-series Tiida.

Review: Mercedes-Benz CLA
Thinking of the CLA-Class as a baby brother to the CLS is right and wrong.

Review: Mercedes-Benz E400
Will anyone lament the loss of the V8 from the engine menu in Mercedes-Benz’s standard E-Class line-up for Australia when a tasty V6 has been added? Probably not.

FIRST DRIVE: FIAT PUNTO POP
The Fiat Punto is back

First drive: Audi S3 sedan
Audi’s hot small car gets a bootful of extra appeal

First drive: Porsche Cayman GTS
Porsche makes its fabulous Cayman coupe even better

First drive: Porsche 918 Spyder
Wheels flies 56 hours for 28 minutes on-track in a $2million hybrid Porsche supercar. Wouldn’t you?

First drive: Chevrolet SS
James Stanford drives the Chevrolet SS in Palm Springs.

Review: Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG
You won’t find ‘Race Start’ on the new Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG. The launch-control technology that helps make the smaller E63 AMG the fastest accelerating sedan in Wheels’ history is ignored in the still supercar-fast S63.

Review: Volvo V40 XC
When the words ‘cross country’ appear on a vehicle, there’s an immediate issue in managing expectations. Volvo’s new V40 derivative suffers from just such a challenge.

Review: Kia Cerato hatch
Stone motherless last. Not a position you really want to find yourself, unless, say, you’re a guest of the Americans in Guantanamo Bay and there’s a lengthy cue for a go on the water board.

2013 Holden Trax Review
The world has gone small-SUV mad. In markets all over the globe, the satchel-sized Sport Utility Vehicle has become the hottest thing since sleeve tattoos and manufacturers can’t keep up with demand.

2013 Alfa Romeo 4C Review
This is a slightly sad, mildly embarrassing thing to admit, but sometimes – very rarely – the unveiling of a car can make all the hair on my body stand up and dance.
