I’ve never understood the SUV-coupe genre. They’re about as functional as a hollow plastic hammer, offering neither the cabin space of a conventional SUV, nor the dynamism of a low-slung coupe.
Mercedes-Benz’s sub-compact four-door sedan, the CLA-Class, has served as the entry point to the German giant’s desirable sedan range since 2013. A new 2018 model of this well-accepted compact front-wheel-drive-based 4-door wannabe-coupe comes with a host of changes.

If you look beyond the hype, the Jaguar F-Type isn’t anything ground-breaking when it comes to sports cars. Based off of a decade-old chassis with carryover engines, its claim to fame was always the noise rather than the dynamics, at least when compared to various rivals. So we weren’t expecting a whole lot from the SVR version of this car. But boy were we wrong.
The Takata airbag problem plagued most manufacturers and forced them to recall millions of vehicles during 2016. With the airbag-related problem still creating waves, 2017 started off with some more vehicles making a walk back to the dealer.
While big names in the automobile industry struggle to refine their hydrogen-cell powered cars, a small manufacturer from Liechtenstein, called NanoFlowcell, has plans to roll out their hydrogen-cell powered concept car which will be their fourth concept car since 2014.
French car manufacturer Peugeot has updated their 2008 crossover (yes, it’s the model name, not the model year) for this year and they have taken the covers off the new car quietly in Australia.
A few months ago, Skoda released the Kodiaq SUV, and now they have revealed a Scout version. Skoda gives the Scout treatment to taut up their cars to take some mild beating when they are off the road.
The Skoda Octavia is long forgotten here as a viable contender in the compact segment, but when we finally took one for a spin, we found it to be a value-packed alternative to the venerable VW Golf.
Aston Martin has revealed the all-new 2018 Aston Martin Vanquish S Volante with more power than the previous non-S version, dragging on the ancient DB9 platform for one last hurrah.
We’ve been following the development of the Bentley Bentayga quite closely. We saw it up close in concept form, with that much-derided front-end. We saw it in its world debut at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show, where we saw its famous Breitling dash-clock option that costs as much as the car. We even saw it in Dubai at the 2015 Dubai Motor Show where we interviewed one of the designers. Unfortunately we never got a chance to get behind the wheel since it hit the roads in 2016, but we were finally given this blue one to try out for a couple of days.
