The Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS was never meant to happen, but this 'Franken-Cayman' is alive with the beating heart of a 911 GT3 - the howling 4.0-litre flat-six, making 500 horsepower and pushing you to a top speed of 315km/h. There are lots of questions, and we've answered them all for you, but there's one you need to ask yourself: could you live with this beast?

We're pretty sure a team of parents designed the new BMW X1 xDrive20i because only mums and dads would know that little families need a small SUV like this.

Now one of only two sedans Lexus offers, the ES replaces both the smaller IS as well as the larger GS. The latter were both rear-wheel drive, but the ES is front-drive, using a stretched Toyota Camry architecture. Launched in 2018 but updated in 2021, the ES 300h facelift boasts heaps of metal for the money, along with hybrid tech and a full list of standard features. But is it premium enough?

The LS500 offers some serious Japanese old world charm, but perhaps to a fault.

When it comes to choosing a family car, sedans are often overlooked for their long-legged wagon or beefy SUV cousins. Is the new Mercedes-Benz C-Class' C200 the start of a four-door comeback?

The Purosangue is the first high-riding, four-seat, four-door vehicle ever produced by Ferrari.

Genesis is starting to make a name for itself in the local luxury car market, and the GV80 SUV sits at the top of the brand's model tree. It's loaded with performance and safety tech, not to mention standard features. But how does it cope with day-to-day family duties? Read on to find out.

Think of a Mercedes-AMG and the first words that spring to mind are probably not - understated, efficient and restrained. And yet those are probably the best words to describe the all-new C 43.Of course, before we go any further it’s important to note that the C 43, even in its previous six-cylinder guise, was never meant to be as wild, raucous or powerful as the C63 flagship - that’s simply not its role in the AMG line-up.But even so, this new model is a dive into fresh territory for the brand and puts a very different spin on the AMG sports sedan as we know it.This is a four-cylinder model, complete with a Formula One-derived electric turbocharger, so it lacks the sound and fury you expect from something carrying the ‘AMG’ badge - but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad car, as we’ll explain.

Introduced as part of the all-new, fifth-generation RX series, the 500h F Sport Performance AWD is the new flagship in Lexus' long-established large luxury SUV range, and an alternative to the likes of the sportier grades of the BMW X5 and Range Rover Velar.

The predicted most popular version of the all-new, fifth-generation RX series will be the 350h hybrid, and why not. It's the entry point so most accessible, offers outstanding fuel economy and is pretty lively to boot.
