Like a Golf, only slightly taller. Little wonder then that VW’s T-Roc has been a huge hit, with more than a million sold worldwide, and is currently the firm’s third best-selling car in the UK (behind, you guessed it, the Golf and Polo). In fact, the only surprise is that this review isn’t higher up…

Sibling car to the equally abysmal fourth-gen Jeep Cherokee and just as poorly screwed together as everything else Chrysler was churning out in the 2000s, the Dodge Nitro is almost a cartoon caricature of an American SUV, but one that Dodge felt might succeed in Europe (spoiler: it didn’t). It’s far from a good car,…

If you’re considering a 550e in your life, what else should be on your shortlist? Truth is, it’ll be a short shortlist. The fast-but-not-quite-M 5 Series occupies a rarefied little niche in the market. On paper, its closest rival is the Merc E53, which also offers a turbocharged straight six and a chunky amount of…

Until the funky new A2 e-tron is unveiled later this year, the supremely sensible Q4 e-tron will remain as the entry point to Audi’s all-electric range, and since it first went on sale all the way back in 2021, it’s now facelift time for both the SUV and Sportback versions. As you might expect it’s…

Big news for fans of falling leaves, nature’s greens turning reddish-brown, and spaceships absolutely pelting along alien terrain while whacking chunks out of each other – a recent Steam update appears to have accidentally revealed that Star Wars: Galactic Racer will be released on PC on 6 October. Let us explain. The game’s preorder bonus info…

A couple of weeks after announcing the return of the Skyline nameplate, Nissan has unveiled another all-new car that uses one of its classic monikers. This time it’s the turn of the Terrano to be reborn, with a plug-in hybrid SUV concept unveiled at the Beijing Auto Show and promises of a proper production version…

Back in November 2025, BYD big boss Stella Li told TG the all-electric Denza Z supercar would launch in the UK (and other markets outside of China) with a debut at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed. What Li failed to mention at the time was the Denza Z would launch in coupe form as…

Why should I care about this new Conti GT S? Because if you care about driving it’s potentially the range sweet spot: all the best chassis goodies of the flagship Speed version, for less outlay. What sort of chassis goodies are we talking? It’s mainly a massive recalibration job. Bentley offers two separate chassis tunes…

Hang on, let me get this straight: over 1,000bhp in an old Porsche 911? Correct. There is a proviso on that which I’ll come on to, but the basics are rather staggering. This is a 4.0-litre flat six that is still air-cooled and only has two valves per cylinder, yet thanks to a beefy pair…

Porsche has sold its interests in both Bugatti Rimac and the Rimac Group to a New York-based investment firm in order to focus on its “core business”, the sportscar-maker confirmed today. It will get rid of its 45 per cent stake in Bugatti Rimac – the joint venture it set up with Rimac back in…
