2020 BMW X5 M and X6 M Competition review in Australia, including price, specs, interior, ride and handling, safety and score. IN A NUTSHELL: If you can’t choose between these two, we’d suggest the X5 M Competition as the better (logical) choice. But some want the exclusive look of the

2020 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 review in Australia, including price, specs, interior, ride and handling, safety and score. The 2020 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 is an even more muscular version of the Camaro 2SS muscle car. It adds a supercharged engine to the front that shoots considerably more power and torque to

THE NEW Chevrolet Silverado 1500 in Australia has spent barely any time on HSV (could soon be GMSV) dealer floors, but we were itching to jump into one and give it a good test both on and off the road. Read on for our full on-road and off-road assessment. IN

Review of the 2020 Lexus LS 500 F Sport in Australia, including price, specs, interior, ride and handling, safety and score. REMEMBER THE old Lexus LS? It looked a bit stuffy but carried the reputation of Toyota and Japanese build quality to the luxury car market. Today, it’s a much

Review of the 2020 Skoda Kodiaq RS in Australia, including price, specs, interior, ride and handling, safety and score. WE JUST love the Skoda Octavia RS… it really is a great option for anyone that wants something practical, sporty, and not an SUV. But what if you need an SUV?

Porsche’s most affordable model has been recently updated to tackle new rivals…we just had to see what Stuttgart’s smallest SUV offers.  IN A NUTSHELL: A sporty feeling SUV and there’s value here for a Porsche, but the base model Macan lacks the athleticism and features of its sibling variants.

Mitsubishi has given its Triton-based Pajero Sport a facelift for 2020 with some noticeable enhancements outside and not as visible improvements underneath.

VOLKSWAGEN GOLF. The hatchback is absolutely iconic after decades of production and continues to offer a slick city car for the masses and a great hot hatch for enthusiasts.
