Forza Horizon 6 is here, and it’s pretty perfect. One of the only downsides is the smaller vehicle roster versus its predecessor, but with more than 550 available at launch you’re hardly limited for choice.  You’ll see articles out there telling you about the fastest cars, the best for each event type and category, but…

Someone at racing game studio Maverick Games either really has a thing for under-loved Italian MPVs, or they’re teasing a big announcement. And very possibly, both. The Warwick-based studio, founded by Forza Horizon alumni, has been livestreaming a 2003 Fiat Multipla just sitting parked in the lobby of its offices, with a timer counting down to…

Some of the greatest car designs ever – the Citroen DS, the Mini, the Lamborghini Miura, even the first Ford Focus – were so radical when new, they were scoffed at. Only years later did they get judged as genius. But we now live in a world of instant responses and polarised opinion. Love or…

The most powerful production car Porsche has made in its almost 100-year history, a title it shares with the Cayenne Electric SUV. Ooft. That’s if you go for the Turbo, which detonates 1,140bhp and 1,106lb ft of torque from a pair of permanent magnet synchronous motors. God help you if you’re in the blast zone…

What is it? AMG’s newest sports SUV and SUV ‘Coupe’. So a GLC (SUV, C-Class analogue) with a ‘53’ designation. So fast but not too fast, spicy but not nuclear. This is your Madras rather then vindaloo. AMG bills it as having a ‘high-revving six-cylinder for even greater driving dynamics and emotion’, which is faintly…

Here’s TopGear.com’s roving correspondent, Cory Spondent, with his mostly incorrect exclusives from the world of motoring Jaguar has responded to the reveals of the new Mercedes-AMG GT 4-door Coupe and Ferrari Luce by throwing its arms out wide and shouting ‘how you like me now, suckers’. Despite suffering an international backlash from so-called ‘fan’ communities…

Who are they? An electrified sub-brand of Chinese state-owned manufacturer GAC, focusing on mass-market EVs and hybrids. Its USP is the ‘Great Eight’ promise – eight years of warranty, servicing, breakdown cover and MOTs as standard with each car. Who’s the target audience? Families, mostly. When did they arrive in the UK? Spring 2026. How…

This is the new Lotus Emira 420 Sport. Adding the moniker ‘Sport’ to a… sports car feels a tad unnecessary, but the 420 bit is important: it gets 420PS – that’s 416bhp – making it the most powerful Lotus Emira you can now buy. That’s more than the entry level 2.0-litre turbocharged Emira… ‘Turbo’ (360bhp),…

It may have been ‘just a BMW’ (as if using BMW underpinnings was ever a bad thing), but the GR Supra’s styling at least put a Japanese twist on its well-proven bones. More importantly, though, it resurrected a much-loved name after nearly two decades of dormancy, and helped solidify Toyota’s position as one of the…

It took a few years, but I’ve definitely made peace with the fact that I’m a nerd. I can admit that, yes, I can build a PC from its component parts, I have played Magic: The Gathering more than once and I do have strident opinions about how the Star Wars sequel trilogy ended. Typically…
