The Koup’s turbocharged engine offers plenty of grunt and the chassis is flexible enough to make it a properly comfortable car with enough agility to have a bit of fun on a twisting road.

A warmed-up version of the garden-variety Hyundai i30, the SR variant gets a bigger engine and sports-tuned suspension. The price and standard kit see it appeal in the segment.

Offering performance and practicality the new M3 is not only more powerful and yet more fuel efficient than its predecessor it also outperforms it in terms of ride and handling.
