2016 Lexus LX570 review
You don’t even need a road to enjoy the latest updates to Lexus’s rolling palace.

2016 Haval H8 review
Chinese carmaker Haval has landed in Australia to fight for buyers in the fastest-growing class in the market – SUVs. Does it have a chance?

2016 Lamborghini Huracan LP580-2 review
Lamborghini has cheapened its Huracan by chucking out the front prop shaft. It’s not necessarily a bad thing

2015 Mini Clubman review
Mini’s once-quirky Clubman grows an extra door for this generation, making it more family-friendly. But is it truly a Mini?

2016 Mercedes-Benz GLC review
Mercedes-Benz fills a glaring hole in its line-up with this classy, high-quality C-Class-based SUV called GLC

2015 Walkinshaw Performance Products W547 review
When too much is never enough, there’s always the Walkinshaw Performance Products enhancement of the latest LS3 V8-powered Holden VF II Commodore. Power cranks up to 547kW (hence the name) and torque to a mighty 880Nm.

2016 Lexus GS200t review
Smaller is better. Especially when it’s a turbo four-pot Lexus GS.

2016 Fiat 500X review
Fiat has brought Italian style to the SUV baby boom with the 500X. Is its appeal more than skin deep?

2016 Lexus RC200t review
Lexus has finally force-fed its sporty looking RC coupe, adopting the 2.0-litre turbo four from sister-car the IS sedan.

2016 Mazda MX-5 2.0-litre review
A bigger engine debuts with bigger wheels and tyres on the Mazda MX-5 roadster. So is the 2.0-litre a sweeter steer than the delectable 1.5?

2015 Hyundai Santa Fe Series II review
Hyundai has brought a clutch of driver aids to its popular Santa Fe seven-seat SUV, and retuned the diesel engine.

2016 Porsche Macan GTS review
The 2016 Porsche Macan GTS will slide into the German brand’s medium SUV line-up between S and Turbo. It’s the sportiest Macan of all, according to Porsche

2016 Mazda CX-9 Prototype Review
A stint behind the wheel of a heavily disguised Mazda CX-9 suggests there will be much to look forward to from the longer, lighter, and more punchy seven-seater.

2016 Lexus RX 200t review
The mid-size soft-roader is the most important car in any prestige marque’s line-up, and Lexus has taken a fresh approach to promoting its new, fourth-generation RX. Is it as exciting as the adverts suggest?

Ford Focus v Toyota Corolla v Volkswagen Golf comparison review
These three hatchbacks hit the sweet spot. But have Corolla and Focus improved enough to reel in the mighty Golf?

2016 Toyota Prius review
Toyota has launched the fourth-generation of its environmental poster car, the petrol-electric hybrid Prius.

2016 Porsche 911 Carrera S review
Does switching to turbo boost make the 911 less, or more, of a driver’s car?

2016 Audi Q7 e-tron 3.0 TDI quattro review
It’s a sprinter and endurance athlete, an eco-warrior and ultimately a luxury family trickster. Audi’s Q7 hybrid is the prince of diversity.

Alfa 4C v Audi TT v Peugeot RCZ-R comparison review
A cheap Italian supercar, a sharply suited German, or a firey, bolshy Frenchie? Better bring your gloves!

2016 Mercedes AMG C63 S Coupe review
Two doors fewer but so much more in new Mercedes-AMG C63 S Coupe

2015 Toyota Mirai review
Toyota has developed Mirai as the world’s first full-production fuel cell vehicle. Australians miss out though as Toyota will only sell it where refuelling stations are available.

2015 BMW 7 Series review
BMW reckons its new 7 Series, and not Merc’s S Class, is now the most technologically advanced car on the road. And they make a fair argument.

Mazda CX-5 v Hyundai Tucson v Ford Kuga v Subaru Forester comparison review
Can the turbocharged, top-spec Hyundai Tucson Highlander run with the best of the medium SUV bunch, when each is in its most powerful form?

2016 Ferrari 488 Spider review
The Ferrari 488 Spider gets all the good stuff from the GTB coupe – including a new turbocharged V8 – but adds a retractable hardtop that stows in 14 seconds. Can it be as good to drive?
