Toyota’s new road-going rally special is a great drivers’ car of the type we worried we’d never see again. It’s a little gem.

An inspiring new hot hatch from Hyundai N. Agile, and with a limited slip differential that offers superb mid-corner traction, it’s a formidable Fiest…

Cupra’s performance SUV has been spruced up, but it’s not enough to keep it competitive in a very crowded segment

Before Vauxhall benefits from Peugeot’s latest know-how, the Insignia soldiers to remind us of a time we have probably all forgotten

BMW's long-awaited M4 Competition doesn't hold back any punches. It's fast, immensely capable, but also superb fun

Frugal yes, but fiery? Not really. VW’s Golf GTD is a refined, comfortable and desirable daily, but doesn’t offer many thrills

The Taycan steers better, accelerates harder and is built better than the competition, but its weight ultimately undoes its claim as a sports car

As good to drive as an SUV gets, much better interior these days too

The XF’s impressive chassis is now joined by a plush new interior and slick tech, but powertrains remain a significant weakness
