FIRSTLY, let me start with a word of thanks to you. At this time every year, we publish our official sales figures – just as the car industry does. The magazine ABCs let you know which titles are doing well, and which aren’t. This year was a particularly good one for Auto Express in what is, let’s face it, a challenging market. We proud to say that we’re still Britain’s biggestselling weekly car magazine, and by a bigger margin than before. That’s down to you. We’re hugely grateful for your ongoing support and will continue to ensure we’re the best at what we do – for you. As always, please do keep the feedback coming. One thing we’re often getting comments on is the coverage we give to electric cars. With our focus on the latest news, we’re just reacting to what’s happening in the industry. And as our government is insisting, it’s the way we’ve got to go, whether we like it or not. This week’s cover star is from a new brand that sits under the Volvo umbrella. Only last week I was over in Sweden talking about, amongst other things, electrification. I spotted a few Polestar models being driven around and they look sensational. Now we’re able to bring you our first-drive verdict on the brand’s new Polestar 2 – a rival for Tesla’s big-selling Model 3. After the launch of the hybrid Polestar 1, the new Swedish/Chinese brand has committed to being fully electric. And there will be plenty more new brands gracing the pages of Auto Express in the coming weeks and months, all with electrification at their core. But rest assured, we still very much have petrol (and diesel) in our veins. As I write this, I’m about to go and drive a couple of BMW’s latest M models – more about them in a couple of weeks. In spite of the performance brand also talking about electrification – like everyone else, it has to – it’s also clear that petrol V8 power still has its place. And it will always have its place on these pages.

Charge times have yet to be confirmed, but Polestar 2 has a range of 292 miles
POLESTAR 2 New electric EXCLUSIVE We try an early version of new Swedish EV – and it’s on target to shake up the market Ivan Aistrop
THE Polestar 2 is the second product to come from Volvo’s luxurious new ‘electric performance’ brand, but it is comfortably the most relevant and important. You see, with only 1,500 examples of the Polestar 1 being sold worldwide, and a list price just shy of £140,000, that car serves much more as a fanfare for the brand’s arrival, rather than being a serious proposition for your average motorist. There’s something else, too: the 1 is a plug-in hybrid, whereas the 2 – and every other Polestar to follow – is all-electric. So, not only is the 2 much more representative of what we can expect from Polestar in the future, it’s also the first big test of how credible and appealing the brand will be to everyday car buyers. No pressure, then. At this size and price point, the Polestar 2 goes toe to toe with the Tesla Model 3, a car that has both credibility and appeal – not to mention desirability and technology – in abundance. So, does Polestar 2 have what it takes to tempt buyers? Well, to find

It should be noted that our drive took place in a controlled environment on a Swedish test track, and although the car we sampled was largely production-ready, some things did remain unfinished. Our car was also fitted with an optional Performance Pack (costing £5,000) that includes bigger 20-inch forged alloys, Brembo brakes and Öhlins manually adjustable dampers. Those adjustable dampers have 22 possible settings that alter their stiffness by up to 50 per cent between extremes, and our test car’s were set somewhere around the middle. In this guise, the suspension provided a really good balance of comfort and control. The firm-but-fair ride stayed

smooth on most surfaces, and it was only when we found a particularly rough road that things became in any way jarring. More impressive, though, was the car’s agility. Even fast changes of direction felt really stable and assured, thanks to tight body control, mammoth grip and even weight distribution. Quick, responsive steering also gave the car a darty nature. Perhaps the most defining characteristic, though, was the Polestar 2’s acceleration. Two electric motors give a combined 402bhp and four-wheel-drive traction, so it’s pretty savage. Nail the accelerator from a standstill and you fly away from the mark; on the move, even the merest tickle of the pedal is enough to get yo you moving at a serious rate. Being an electri electric car, its acceleration comes with a bare min minimum of audible drama, and thanks to excell excellent noise suppression, the 2 is also an exce exceptional cruiser. Importantly, the Polestar 2 feels desirable in other ways. TThe 292-mile driving range is competitive, th the flamboyant design makes it stand out in a crowd, and the high-grade materials mean it feels plush inside. The large central inf infotainment screen looks
good and uses an all-new Android operating system that gives you some really clever Google-integrated functionality. Is the Polestar perfect? Nope. The boot is smaller than the Tesla’s, rear headroom will be tight for anyone much over six feet tall, and the tiny back window restricts vision. There’s barely any information on how long it’ll take to charge up, and the brakes feel rather wooden and need a shove to get working. Still, that doesn’t stop the 2 being a deeply impressive all-rounder. Tesla has had this part of the market to itself for a little while, but in Polestar 2, there’s now some very serious competition.
Verdict WITH individual design, impressive build quality, interesting infotainment technology and an all-electric driving experience that’s both engaging and sophisticated, the Polestar 2 looks like a very credible alternative to the Tesla Model 3. If this car is anything to go by, the future will be bright for Polestar.

NEWS Hyundai i20 LIGHT SHOW
Details such as the intricate LED light designs help new i20 to stand out
Hybrid power for hi-tech n Alex Ingram
Alex_Ingram@dennis.co.uk @AxleIngram
THIS is the new Hyundai i20, which is due to hit showrooms in September. The new supermini aims to steal a march on talented rivals such as the Ford Fiesta and Renault Clio by delivering superior safety kit, class-leading in-car entertainment and mild-hybrid powertrains. While the i20 uses a heavily updated version of the current model’s platform, from a design point of view it takes a radical departure from its predecessor. It’s the first Hyundai to use the company’s new design language, which means more sharply defined body surfacing and angular headlights (featuring full LEDs on top models), which blend into the edges of the wide grille. At the back, the new model gets a full-width strip connecting the tail-lights, and they sit below a panel which, when combined with a black contrasting roof,

● New i20 reveals sharp look ● More efficient and practical
blends into the rear window. Beyond the black roof, there are also four new exterior paint colours to choose from. The sportier stance is helped by the overall shape; the new i20 is 24mm lower, 30mm wider and 5mm longer than its predecessor. No official cabin shots have been issued, but Auto Express has seen the finished model and it does take a great leap forward over the current car. Top-spec versions feature a pair of 10.25-inch digital displays on the dash: one digital instrument panel with graphics that change according to driving mode, and a second touchscreen system that controls the infotainment. Base cars get a small 3.8-inch LCD panel, while an eight-inch touchscreen is also available. Elsewhere, the i20’s overall wheelbase has grown by a modest 10mm, but a small increase in interior space beyond the last
i20 – already one of the most spacious superminis – gives Hyundai ground to claim that this is one of the most practical cars in its class. Boot space is up by 25 litres too, to 351 litres – not quite as large as the new Clio’s, but 48 litres more than in a Fiesta. The i20’s petrol-only engine line-up is related to the previous car’s, but each unit gains efficiency tweaks to reduce fuel consumption. While other markets are set to get a 1.2-litre with 83bhp and a 1.0-litre turbocharged 48-volt mild hybrid with 118bhp, the UK is likely to get just one engine: a 99bhp 1.0-litre three-cylinder turbo mild hybrid. This set-up recovers
“New i20 is estimated to be up to four per cent more fuel-efficient than the current car”
energy that would otherwise be wasted under deceleration, and can redeploy that power to reduce load on the engine. Gearbox choices are either a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic or a new six-speed manual. The latter features an electronic clutch, which is able to decouple the gearbox from the engine when coasting to save fuel. Efficiency is also improved courtesy of the fact that the new i20 is roughly four per cent lighter than the outgoing model – a result of lighter seats, plus a plastic fuel tank in place of the old car’s steel item. The i20 features a flap in the front grille as well, which improves aerodynamic efficiency (itself saving roughly 2g/km of CO2). All of these changes mean the new car is estimated to be up to four per cent more fuel efficient than the old i20. Performance figures have yet to be revealed, but the lighter body is likely to have a positive effect here, too. Prices have yet to be confirmed, but are likely to rise slightly, starting at around £15,500.

Biermann has expressed an interest in developing a small hot hatch ever since he joined the company. “Why would we limit ourselves to C-segment [with the i30 N]?” he told Auto Express. “There are tons of hot superminis out there and there’s a good market out there.” It’s understood that an N hot hatchback was set in the i20’s product plan from the very beginning, in order to streamline the development process. However, a hot SUV in the shape of the Kona N is expected to arrive first, followed by the i20 N towards the end of 2021.

Hottest Golf R ever is ca
● Next Golf R will have 328bhp and be revealed later this year ● Expect four-wheel drive, seven-speed DSG, 0-62mph in 4.5 secs Alex Ingram
Alex_Ingram@dennis.co.uk @AxleIngram
THE next Volkswagen Golf R won’t be officially revealed until the second half of 2020, but our spy photographers have already snapped the hottest version of the Mk8 Golf completely undisguised during its development programme. UK buyers are huge fans of the outgoing model; even five years after the Mk7 R’s release, we bought 5,317 of them last year – more than any other market worldwide. So VW hasn’t seen much need to dramatically tweak the winning formula. That can be seen in our latest spy shots. Like its predecessor, the newcomer won’t wear an overtly aggressive bodykit; instead it’ll go for an understated-yet-sporty look. However, the prototype shows us subtle clues. At the front, there’s a pair of bodycoloured diagonal slashes separating the wide air dam within the deep front bumper, and around the back, quad tailpipes can be seen – a typical Golf R trait. Beefier brake discs gripped by blue calipers hint at the performance potential, and the alloys on this test mule are very similar to the ‘Cadiz’ items on the old R. Speaking with Auto Express, Jost Capito, Managing Director of Volkswagen R, said that during the car’s development, the end goal was to produce the ultimate all-round hot hatchback. “It’s a car that should flatter the novice and reward the expert,” Capito told us. “It sounds quite simple, but this gets quite hard to achieve. But I believe the next Golf R is exactly like this.” A recently leaked internal document confirmed the Golf R will produce 328bhp,
SPIED
making it the most powerful variant yet, with 32bhp more than the previous model. Although it was initially thought that the new Golf R would rely on a mild-hybrid powertrain for its extra performance, Capito confirmed that this would not be the case. “We can [only] take the hybrid systems that are already on the platform. And our priority is not to use hybrid systems; our priority is that it has to be a credible ‘R.’” Other technical details have yet to be confirmed, but it’s highly likely that the next Golf R will deploy its power to the road via a seven-speed DSG gearbox and VW’s familiar 4MOTION four-wheel-drive system. Expect a 0-62mph time of around 4.5 seconds. We’ve yet to see the interior close up, but we anticipate sports seats and unique upholstery to add sporting intent to the latest Mk8 cabin. Like the other models in the range, the R should use a pair of digital displays and touch-sensitive buttons. Capito was sure the next Golf R would lead the hot-hatch class. “It’s astonishing that the AMG A 35 comes out and the Golf R is still beating it” he said. “I am convinced it will be the benchmark for a couple of years.”

The entry-level powertrain will be a 148bhp 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel, while the flagship model will be fitted with a 268bhp 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol unit and 4MOTION four-wheel drive. Expect to pay a £2,000 premium for the Shooting Brake over the regular saloon.

ELSEWHERE at Volkswagen, we’ve been given our first unofficial look at the new Arteon Shooting Brake. Our spies caught this development mule winter testing. The styling of this Arteon Shooting Brake development vehicle is identical to the saloon up to the B-pillar, so it has the same long bonnet, wide radiator grille and enormous front doors. However, at the rear, there’s a new sloping roofline, a fresh tailgate, new quarterlight windows and a pair of updated tail-lights. Back in 2017, a VW executive hinted that the new Arteon estate could usher in a larger, more powerful six-cylinder engine. However, given VW’s recent push towards eco-friendly vehicles, it now looks more likely that the company will shift its focus, possibly offering the Shooting

VW EVs benefit from motorsport
THE boss of VW’s R Division, Jost Capito, has also shed light on how the firm’s efforts in electric motorsport will influence its road-going EVs in a way other brands JOST CAPITO can’t match. R division boss “In Formula E or E TCR [touring cars], you don’t have the freedom to develop the battery,” he told us. “But it’s not just about the car on track with electric cars; it’s how to recharge. “For Pikes Peak, they had to charge the ID R in 10 minutes, so we have a lot of technology in how to handle the cooling and heating system to get the best charging.” Capito’s background in the World Rally Championship and F1 is helping VW to speed up development of future performance electric projects. Other senior VW bosses have confirmed that a hot ID.3 R is in the pipeline, but it is still several years away from showrooms as engineers get to grips with the new technology.
“Capito’s background will help to speed up VW’s EV projects“
Faster Golf GTD ready for its Geneva reveal AS well as a new Golf R, another fresh performance-related Golf waiting in the wings is the all-new GTD. VW has released a teaser image ahead of the car’s official debut at next month’s Geneva Motor Show. The image reveals that the GTD will feature LED spotlights housed within the front bumper, as well as a light strip across the grille that connects the headlamps. It’s a design theme that will also feature on the GTE and GTI to mark out performance variants of the Mk8 Golf. VW is keeping detailed technical data on the GTD under wraps until the car’s official debut at Geneva, but the firm has said that it will make use of the ‘most

The firm goes on to confirm that a new twin SCR (selective catalytic reduction) with double-AdBlue injection will also feature to help lower NOx emissions over the outgoing model. The Mk7 GTD was powered by a 182bhp 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel. Expect power from the newcomer to rise closer to the 200bhp mark. As before, the GTD will be front-wheel drive and offered with a six-speed manual or the option of a six-speed DSG automatic gearbox. Alongside the GTD at Geneva, VW will also pull the wraps off the new GTI. Both will go on sale in the middle of the year.

Drivers are caught in confusion surrounding low-emission zones ● Birmingham and London clean-air schemes at odds with each other ● Different data sources put some cars in emissions ‘no-mans land’ Tristan Shale-Hester

AUTHORITIES running clean-air zones in two UK cities are using emissions data from conflicting sources, so cars that are exempt from London’s Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) may be charged to enter Birmingham’s upcoming Clean Air Zone (CAZ). That’s despite both zones being based on the same emissions standards: Euro 4 for petrol cars, and Euro 6 for diesels. London’s ULEZ enforcement system and online checker uses data from car makers, the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) and the Vehicle Certification Agency (VCA). But Birmingham’s CAZ, which will see drivers charged £8 to enter parts of the city from this summer, relies on a Department for Transport (DfT) website to determine if a car meets the standards, yet will send data to DEFRA (the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs) for checking and enforcement. Birmingham’s online checker warns that its accuracy “is always improving”, but in the meantime drivers risk being told they will have to pay the charge when they don’t, or that their vehicle is exempt when it’s not. Auto Express has also obtained emissions data from the VCA that shows thousands of

petrol vehicles were certified to Euro 3 standards – meaning they could be charged to enter both cities’ zones – despite having emissions low enough to meet Euro 4. Owners of these vehicles can apply for exemption from London’s ULEZ, yet risk being charged if they do not. Transport for London told us: “Where a customer believes that their vehicle is compliant with the ULEZ, but is still being charged, TfL would encourage them to provide compliance evidence via its website. TfL doesn’t apply a blanket rule as there are variations within a single manufacturer model line and also changes to models each year.” Birmingham City Council admitted to having “teething problems” with its vehicle checker, but said it was “working to iron out any issues”. The council added: “Once those issues are resolved, there needs to be a period for motorists to check and prepare – and it has been suggested that this be a six-month period in fairness to all n line with the concerned.

600bhp AMG flagship joins GLE Coupé range MERCEDES has added another performancebased SUV to its ranks with the unveiling of the new AMG GLE 63 S 4MATIC+ Coupé. A rival for the BMW X6 M, it’s powered by a twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8 equipped with Mercedes’s EQ Boost 48-volt startergenerator mild-hybrid system. Only topspec S models will be offered to UK buyers, which means a power output of 603bhp and 850Nm of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via a nine-speed auto gearbox; Merc claims 0-62mph takes 3.8 seconds. To keep all that power in check, Mercedes has fitted a range of chassis upgrades, including uprated air suspension, an electronically controlled locking rear diff, six-piston front brakes and AMG’s active roll stabilisation system, which Mercedes claims helps to reduce body movement.

HONDA has confirmed that the new Jazz supermini (above) will make use of a new hybrid powertrain that will return up to a claimed 63mpg. The new system, called e:HEV, combines a 1.5-litre engine with a twin electric-motor set-up and a compact lithium-ion battery. Total power stands at 108bhp with 253Nm of torque, which enables a 0-62mph time of 9.4 seconds. The powertrain also allows the Jazz to run in pure-electric mode for short bursts.

It’s able to switch between the two fuels at the touch of a button on the dashboard. Dacia claims that the new powertrain will deliver enhanced performance due to more torque, and reduced fuel costs for customers – averaging £594 a year.

SKODA has confirmed that its upcoming electric SUV will be called the Enyaq. The car will be Skoda’s second all-electric model, following the Citigo-e iV, and it’s the first to be based on the new MEB electric car architecture that’s been developed by the Volkswagen Group and is already underpinning the VW ID.3 electric hatchback. We’ve already been given a taste of what the Enyaq will look like by the Skoda Vision iV concept, which was shown at the 2019 Geneva Motor Show. That car had a coupé-like curving roofline and achieved four-wheel drive by using two electric motors, one on the front axle and one at the rear. There’s no word on the design or precise technical make-up of the Enyaq at this stage, though. Skoda has revealed the name in the form of an image showing the ‘Enyaq’ lettering in the same font and design as will appear on the rear of the car itself. The name Enyaq is derived from the Irish name Enya, which in turn has its origins in the Gaelic word ‘eithne’, meaning ‘essence, spirit or principle’. The Enyaq establishes a new naming convention within the Skoda range, where electric models will take names starting with ‘E’. In addition to this, the new car’s name also ties in with Skoda’s existing SUV model line-up of Kamiq, Karoq and Kodiaq by ending with a ‘Q’. As the first Skoda model to be based on the MEB platform, the Skoda Enyaq will be a landmark car for the brand. It’s the next

step in Skoda’s masterplan to offer 10 electrified models by the end of 2022, but it also uses tech that we’ll see in wide use across the VW Group in the coming years. Bosses have previously hinted that the firm will also launch a performance version of the Enyaq. “Definitely we will have [v]RS versions of our electric cars; it’s part of our brand,” Skoda’s sales and marketing boss Alain Favey told us back in 2018. “The logic is the same – it’s not about performance as such. Our most powerful engine is 245bhp so by any stretch of imagination we’re not talking about challenging Ferrari.” Skoda estimates that electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles will constitute 25 per cent of its sales by 2025. Hopes are high that the Enyaq – due in showrooms next year – will realise a significant chunk of that total. To that end, Skoda says it will have invested two billion Euros in electric-car development and connected systems by 2025.

New seven-seat Sorento S ● Full-size off-roader uncovered ● Plug-in model due later in 2020 Richard Ingram
Richard_Ingram@dennis.co.uk @rsp_ingram
THIS is the new Kia Sorento, the Korean company’s flagship SUV that will be launched with diesel and hybrid power, with a PHEV due before the end of the year The all-new model has been revealed ahead of its public debut at next month’s Geneva Motor Show. This early unveiling is of a Korean-spec car, although differences from European versions will be marginal. The Sorento takes its styling cues from the larger, US-only Telluride SUV, but the design has been toned down for the European market. There’s a familiar tiger-nose grille flanked by new LED lights, which connect to a sharp shoulder line that runs around the entire car. The split, vertical-orientated taillights allow a wide, square boot opening. Inside, the new Sorento takes a leap towards its German rivals when it comes to quality, fit and finish. The differences from the Korean car shown here will concern just colour and trim, rather than overall layout. ut. The fully digital 12.3-inch driver’s displayy will be standard across the range, mated d to a 10.25-inch central touchscreen with Kia’s a’s second-generation UVO app interface. UK specs will be confirmed later, but it’s expected that all Sorentos will feature e autonomous emergency braking (AEB) with cyclist detection, leather seats and dual-zone climate control. Top-spec cars will get heated and ventilated seats, wireless phone hone charging and intelligent cruise control. Available initially with a choice of diesel sel and petrol-electric hybrid powertrains, the he Sorento range will be bolstered by a plug-in g-in hybrid by the end of the year. In order for Kia to meet the forthcoming ng sub-95g/km emissions targets, however, r, it’s thought that the ‘all-new’ diesel will only be available on one mid-range trim
level. Despite the generous kit list, this car will be the entry point to Sorento ownership, undercutting the equivalent hybrid by several thousand pounds. The hybrid powertrain will consist of a 1.6-litre petrol engine and a 59bhp motor for a total system output of around 230bhp. The plug-in hybrid will use a larger 89bhp motor with around 265bhp. Expect around 35-40 miles of pure-electric range in mixed driving. All UK models will use an automatic gearbox and four-wheel drive. The new Sorento is around 10mm longer, wider and taller than the car it replaces, but the key difference is its wheelbase, which has been stretched by 35mm for improved interior packaging. As before, the Sorento will be available with seven seats. And the plug-in hybrid will also get a seven-seat option, with Isofix points on each of the five rear seats. Fold the third row flat and the Sorento offers up to 910 litres of boot space. Exact specs will be revealed closer to the on-sale on sale date in the summer, but expect a modest five to 10 per cent price hike. That means the basic diesel version should cost around £37,500.

Learners in dark over night driving MORE than 100,000 drivers pass their driving test every year having never driven in the dark, according to data from the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA). That’s despite 35 per cent of all accidents involving young people occuring during the hours of darkness. The DVSA conducted a survey of 17,000 learners and young drivers and found that 17.5 per cent had no experience of driving at night. A further 22 per cent said they had spent less than two hours driving in the dark before taking their test. Some 610,000 drivers aged 17 to 24-years-old took their practical driving test between October 2018 and October

2019. Of these, as many as 106,000 may never have driven at night. The DVSA, which is run by the Department for Transport and is responsible for setting, administering and conducting driving tests, advises learners to take lessons in the dark, as well as practising separately at night with their parents or under supervision. Mark Winn, chief driving examiner at the DVSA, said that it’s “essential that all learners gain experience of driving in
the dark, whether with their driving instructor or through private practice.” He added: “Spotting hazards in reduced visibility is a skill built on experience. The more time a learner spends practising in different conditions, the better prepared they will be for driving safely on their own.” While driving laws were updated in 2018 to allow learner drivers to use the motorway, there are no plans to update rules in order to encourage night driving.

Halo model will set the trend for Kia’s EV future
KIA’S first dedicated all-electric vehicle will launch as a Teslastyle ‘halo’ model. It will showcase the brand’s future, with 310 miles of range and 350kW rapid-charge technology. The all-new model will take advantage of Kia’s tie-up with electric expert Rimac to offer “incredible” performance, which will later trickle down to more mainstream models. Speaking with Auto Express, Kia Europe’s European Chief Operating Officer Emilio Herrara said, “What we want to do with Rimac is to have this performance element as a key feature of our cars. “We don’t want to go to the same level [as Tesla],” he admitted, “but to have performance that provides you with this fun-to-drive factor. This is what Rimac can bring to us.” The maker will use the production-ready Imagine by Kia (above) to set the bar for what’s coming over the next five years. “It is important to make a statement,” Kia Europe Marketing Director Carlos Lahoz told us. “Every maker needs a halo car that sets the pace for what is coming.” But Lahoz admitted that Kia is not a premium brand: “We need to be faithful to our roots,” he said. “We are mainstream.” We’ll likely see a production version of the Imagine early in 2021, with sales starting later that year. Kia’s bosses suggested that by 2024 the company could be making a profit on its electric cars, with price parity between its petrol models and EVs.

MITSUBISHI is applying the finishing touches to an all-new version of the UK’s best selling plug-in hybrid – the nextgeneration Outlander PHEV. The car was previewed by the Engelberg Tourer concept (below) at last year’s Geneva Motor Show, and the styling of this preproduction mule looks remarkably similar. It shares the concept’s boxy silhouette, flat bonnet, high-set daytime running lights and three-pronged LED headlamps. Up front, it also has the latest version of Mitsubishi’s “dynamic shield” radiator grille. The new Outlander will continue to be offered with a choice of petrol and plug-in hybrid power – although the latter powertrain is expected to make up the majority of the car’s sales. The outgoing model was the most popular plug-in hybrid vehicle in the UK, with close to 50,000 examples being sold in the past six years. It’s likely that a development of the current car’s 2.4-litre Atkinson-cycle petrol engine, with a pair of tweaked electric motors and a larger 20kWh battery pack, will be used. Should the upgrades match those of the Engelberg Tourer concept, the new Outlander will have an all-electric range of 43 miles. The conventionally powered petrol engine will also be an evolution of the current Outlander’s 2.0-litre fourcylinder motor, rather than an all-new unit. Mitsubishi is unlikely to offer a diesel engine on the new Outlander, following its decision to discontinue the old 2.2-litre unit in June 2019. A look through the windows of this development mule would suggest that the upgrades will continue into the cabin; a new high-mounted infotainment screen seems to replace the dated dash-mounted set-up in today’s model. The operating system itself is likely to be overhauled, because it’s a particular weak point of the current model. Other new tech on the car could include a fresh digital instrument binnacle and Apple CarPlay smartphone connectivity.

range of around 155 miles. The K-ZE’s one electric motor powers the front axle and delivers 44bhp and 125Nm of torque to give the car a top speed of 65mph. It’s likely that Dacia will sacrifice some of the electric range to boost the car’s performance. Changes to the Dacia K-ZE for Europe are likely to focus on improving quality and adding more equipment to better suit the needs of European customers, although its overall look will probably stay the same.

HOT TOPIC New BMW 4 Series FROM: Simon L THERE’S no doubt BMW’s current styling direction is controversial, particularly the large grilles, but at least it’s got people talking. Folk often complain that all modern cars look similar to one another; I’m glad this is different.
FROM: Mark Christmas I’VE been a BMW owner for 14 years and was considering the new 4 Series as my next car, but if these images are accurate then I can see myself in an Audi or Mercedes before the end of 2020. Sadly, BMW is losing its way.
Revised plug-in drivetrain for BMW 3 Series Touring BMW has broadened its range of plug-in hybrid models by adding a Touring version of the 330e to the line-up. The new model comes with a more efficient hybrid powertrain as well as xDrive four-wheel drive, a first for the plug-in model. The set-up will also find its way into the 330e saloon. The upgraded system comprises a 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, one electric motor, a 12kWh battery, and an eight-speed automatic gearbox. Total power stands at 252bhp, but that can increase to 292bhp for a boost in performance during kickdown when the car is put into Sport mode. BMW claims the 330e xDrive Touring is able to cover 0-62mph in 6.2 seconds and hit a top speed of 136mph. On the efficiency front, BMW says that the updated PHEV model can return up to 156mpg while emitting 42g/km of CO2. In the saloon, the figures stand at 166mpg and 38g/km. Both models can drive for 34 miles on electric power, and only take 3.4 hours to recharge from a wallbox charger. BMW claims that boot capacity in the 330e Touring is only ‘marginally smaller’ than in a regular combustionengined version, but hasn’t confirmed a figure. However, dropping the rear bench frees up a total of 1,420 litres – that’s an 80-litre deficit over the regular model, due to the location of the battery beneath the back seats.
PRACTICAL New 330e Touring can be charged in 3.4 hours from a high-voltage wallbox

INSIDESTORY Tackling the motoring issues that matter

of the system comes from the way it can learn how to deal with different situations, as well as where the car positions itself on the road. Particular attention is given to the lane centring, because this is one area that has been shown to make passengers feel safe and comfortable. Many current semi-autonomous systems allow the car to gently pinball between white lines as it constantly assesses where the lane is going, which is alarming for both occupants and other traffic around it. This system works that out, not least by being able to see up to 100 metres around the car thanks to the lidars – which are effectively laser scanners – and so deliver a much more normal-feeling driving style. We had a passenger ride in the car that did the ‘grand drive’, albeit only over seven miles of rural roads and big motorway-junction roundabouts around Cranfield. Most notable was the way it smoothly paused at the roundabout and then carried on without coming to a total halt, having recognised that the road was clear. That, and the smooth way the car positioned itself on the narrow, bumpy, unmarked rural stretches, felt freakishly normal. Close your eyes and you wouldn’t know it was the car that was driving. Yet this is still very clearly, and as anyone involved in the project will tell you, a test project. Looking at the enormous computer bank that takes up the entire boot of one of the Nissan Leaf test cars, I can’t help but feel that (despite the brand’s new breakthrough and decades of development from the industry before that) fully autonomous driving today is still roughly where computing was when floppy discs were a thing.

I WENT to school in the eighties and nineties; peak Back to the Future era. While the big hair and shiny clothes have certainly come and (mostly) gone again since then, the vision of driverless cars has been as persistent a dream as that of Marty McFly’s achingly cool hoverboard. In fact, both technologies exist, just in somewhat limited guises. Weirdly, Lexus made a hoverboard back in 2016, and other innovators have also achieved the levitating-board trick. Autonomous driving, however, is in a far more advanced state. In fact, if your car has adaptive cruise control and lane-keep assist, which are as routine as a reversing camera on a new model in 2020, then ultimately your car can drive itself. Sort of. But Nissan has taken a step forward in autonomous driving that could show up even Tesla’s remarkable, if misleadingly named, AutoPilot system. The Japanese brand has not only just completed a 230-mile trip in a fully autonomous Leaf over rural, unmarked roads as well as motorways, it has done so by developing autonomous driving tech that can learn and react as a human does. Ironic as it is, it turns out that putting the human factor back into tech that is ultimately designed to replace the human altogether, is a good thing…
The next generation of autonomy
IN collaboration with a number of other parties, significantly Hitachi and the Universities of Leeds and Cranfield, the Nissan HumanDrive project is intended to advance autonomous driving by ‘using machine-learning to develop natural, human-like vehicle control’. That’s the strapline and ambition of the whole consortium project, which has been running for more than three years in preparation for the 230-mile autonomous journey that’s been completed from rural Wales back to the Nissan Technical Centre at Cranfield. To start with, researchers at the University of Leeds put a broad range of motorists through simulated driving scenarios, such as manoeuvring around a parked car, to establish a range of differences and traits related to how people react to the same obstacle. Nick Blake, chief innovation strategist at Hitachi, described how the tech company then “took the best ideas from classic robotics and artificial intelligence, ence, and combined the two together. Using the combination ination of six lidar sensors and a front camera, you can get a very accurate 3D grid view of the world all around the e car, and where the moving objects are.” The ‘human’’ aspect

At the moment in the UK, hands-off driving isn’t permitted and there’s a lot of work going at a United Nations and EU level to work out what will be the certification requirements.” Whether buyers wants autonomy or not, Ewing tactfully suggests autonomous driving “is one of those technologies that you don’t tend to want until you’ve tried it.” With Euro NCAP putting increasing pressure on car makers to fit advanced driver aids as standard, it’s fair to say that semi-autonomous features are already somewhat forced on consumers and manufacturers alike, and seem very likely to become more so. Legislation is sure to be a far bigger driving force than consumer demand. Foreboding as that may sound, the improving safety standards of today’s cars would support the view that it’s a good thing, and safety is at the heart of the Nissan HumanDrive project, too. According to Ewing: “This is part of our ambition to achieve zero fatalities in our cars. We know from our research that 95 per cent of car accidents
originate from human error, so enhancing the technology we have to keep drivers and pedestrians safe is a fundamental part of why we’ve done this.”
How much more advanced can autonomous driving get?
VERY, is the short answer. For a start, facial-recognition technology can already read the face, mood and concentration level of the driver, plus it could soon be able to read and judge the body language of other drivers on the road with the intention of pre-empting their next move. Professor James Brighton of the Advanced Vehicle Engineering Centre at Cranfield University, also explained how autonomous cars could offer a ‘precedence’ system, where somebody in an emergency, or even simply in a rush, for example, could take priority over other drivers. But Brighton did caveat that, saying that “there would have to be some governance and reward system to ensure that people didn’t take advantage – maybe points or otherwise”. Not only that, but autonomous cars could have a scale of urgency to the driving style they deliver. An autonomous car will not break the speed limit or other road traffic laws, but it can alter its level of assertiveness on the road – whether

Advances in autonomous car tech
INSIDE STORY
PROJECT Vicky learns more about HumanDrive from Matthew Ewing it would bother to overtake slightly slower cars on the motorway, for instance – to suit whether you’re in a lazy mood or in a hurry to get to work. There is also the question of city driving, which is the next step in this project since the 230-mile autonomous ‘grand drive’ avoided heavily built-up areas. Of course, Nissan and its partners have developed this technology to be modular so that it can be utilised and developed as easily as possible in various separate systems. So, just as with most advanced technologies, the real benefits to the consumer will actually appear in incremental improvements, rather than a single grand curtain-raiser for the autonomous car. Undeniably, autonomous cars are a divisive technology. But while hands-free driving will never have the appeal of a time-travelling DeLorean or even a hoverboard, it does have advantages beyond the safety aspects. Basically, Nissan is now one step closer to allowing you to read a book, watch television or just sleep through your daily commute. And we can all see the appeal in that.

NOT long ago, the idea of a four-door coupé was something of an anomaly. But increasingly this formula is appealing to young, upwardly mobile types who more often than not haven’t yet had kids. And the BMW 2 Series Gran Coupé is the very latest one, filing yet another niche in the German brand’s ever-expanding model range. It’s based on the regular front-wheel-drive platform of the new 1 and 2 Series, and adds an extra hit of style plus sharper but more refined driving dynamics, according to BMW, while also providing a bigger boot

than its hatchback cousins. In 220d form, as tested here, it costs from £31,355 and is powered by a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder turbodiesel engine that develops 187bhp and an impressive 400Nm of torque. That’s enough to send the front-driven 220d from 0-62mph in a respectable 7.5 seconds and to a top speed of 146mph, while at the same time providing a theoretical 56.5mpg on the combined cycle and CO2 emissions 131g/km. So that means the BMW’s vital statistics are highly competitive beside the car’s main rival, the Mercedes CLA 220d. All Gran Coupé models come as standard in Sport trim, but for an additional £2,500 you can specify the M Sport trim, and that’s
the car you see here. For this you get larger 18-inch M alloys (the standard Sport has 17s), BMW’s Cockpit Pro system – which benefits from a bigger 10.25-inch central touchscreen display and the OS 7 version of BMW’s iDrive system – Dakota leather upholstery rather than cloth, M Sport door sill finishes, extended interior lighting, an M Sport gearlever and various bits of M Sport body addenda, including a different front and rear bumper design. Vitally, you also get BMW’s M Sport steering and stiffer suspension, which means sharper responses not just at your fingertips but beneath your backside as well. So it’s hardly surprising that BMW UK
claims most buyers will go for the M Sport version. By comparison the Mercedes CLA 220d AMG Line costs £35,475 and comes with no more standard equipment than the BMW and only a whisker more performance, making the 220d M Sport look like decent value at £33,895. The interior is much the same as the 1 Series’, and there’s nothing wrong with that. The main TFT instrument display is excellent and intuitive to use, the cabin design is typically driver-orientated, the Dakota leather of the M Sport we drove is high in quality and even quite pleasant on the nose. It’s certainly one of the most pleasant and agreeable cabins in this

segment – everything simply looks and works as you’d expect it to. In the back there’s just about enough room for a six-footer to sit behind another six-footer, plus a well shaped 430-litre boot that provides more space than you get in a 1 Series. In fact, the larger 3 Series only has a 50-litre advantage over the Gran Coupé when it comes to ultimate carrying capacity. On this evidence, then, there’s certainly enough going for the 2 Series to allow it to qualify as a sensible family car. BMW says it has softened the Gran Coupé’s chassis a touch to give the car a more refined drive when compared with the 1 Series, and that’s exactly how it feels on the road. It’s not what you’d call soft, but the Gran Coupé does feel like it glides with more serenity than the regular hatchback, with arguably more feel through its steering and a good sense of balance mid-corner. If you weren’t told, you’d never guess that it was

The engine isn’t the most tuneful, it must be said, but then turbodiesels rarely are. Instead it’s an efficient, effective, refined and ultimately fairly soulless power unit, but one that suffers from almost no lag and delivers strong acceleration from as little as 1,800rpm. The gearbox is the same eightspeed ZF auto you get in anything from a 1 Series to an 8 Series, and in this case it works typically well, with smooth, effortless changes up and down the ratios.

Assuming you don’t mind the looks – some people seem to like it, some don’t, although the M Sport touches definitely lift it visually overall – there is much to like about BMW’s latest offering. The standout elements are the interior, the level of technology on offer, and the chassis.

ON the surface, it might seem like a curious decision on Porsche’s behalf to fit the new 718 Cayman GTS with the exact same 4.0-litre flat-six engine and manual gearbox as the wonderful GT4, then charge £11,260 less for the privilege – because at a stroke the GTS would appear to make the GT4 seem at the very least expensive, at worst virtually redundant. But of course it’s not quite as simple as that. For starters, the GTS uses conventional suspension front and rear, whereas the GT4 rides on the same rather more sophisticated and focused rose-jointed suspension, lifted pretty much lock-stock from the 911 GT3. Second, the GTS rides on far less sticky Pirelli P Zero tyres, whereas the GT4 comes on Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2s. Third, the GTS doesn’t have the aerodynamic addenda of the GT4, and that doesn’t just mean it misses out on the big rear wing of its more expensive brother; the GT4 also boasts a full underbody diffuser and, therefore, generates at least 100kg of extra downforce. So in theory the GTS is a rather less complex animal technically compared with the GT4. Even so, at the core of the GTS really is the same engine that you get in the GT4, except for one small difference. In the GT4 the 4.0-litre flat six revs to 8,000rpm and produces a maximum of 414bhp and

420Nm. In the GTS, the rev cut out is set at 7,800rpm, which means power is slightly lower at 394bhp, although the peak torque remains identical, at 420Nm, with the same torque curve. So we really are talking about the same engine here, joined by the exact same six-speed manual gearbox, albeit with fractionally longer throws. The steering is also the same, while the steel brakes are a touch smaller than those of the GT4, with carbon ceramics available as a £5,177 option. As standard, however, you get PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management), Sport Chrono and the same three-stage switchable drive programme in the GTS, which can be altered by rotating a small dial on the bottom left of the steering wheel, just as in the latest 911. And if you think that makes the GTS essentially a GT4-lite, think again. We’ve
FIRST DRIVE Six-cylinde
driven the GTS in many ways, and unless you push it right to the very edge, you’d be hard pressed to tell the difference between a GT4 and a GTS. The new, cheaper Cayman is that sharp, feels that quick and sounds that good; if you were blindfolded and sat in the passenger seat, I’m honestly not sure that you could tell which was which. And the raw performance figures support this impression as well. The GTS is only 0.1 seconds slower from 0-62mph than the GT4 (4.5 seconds versus 4.4 seconds) while its top speed drops by just 4mph to 182mph. Big deal. Fair enough, if you really lean on the GTS on turn-in and then load it up hard mid-corner you can notice a difference in ultimate response, especially from the front end. There’s also a bit less grip mid-

corner, simply because the GTS’ tyres are neither as wide nor as trick in their tread pattern and compound as the GT4’s. But you need to be pushing very hard indeed to notice the differences, and if you specify the optional, but pricey, carbon ceramic brake discs – as our test car wore – the braking feels every bit as impressive in the GTS as it does in the GT4. There are a few tweaks to the cabin to lift it above lesser-specced 718 Caymans. The Alcantara-trimmed steering wheel is dainty and beautiful to hold, while the padded but supportive sports seats grip you in all the right places. And to remind you of what you’re in, GTS badges litter the cabin. Bottom line; for a whisker over £11,000 less, the GTS seems like a complete bargain beside the GT4, which itself seems like fine value beside its various rivals. Porsche has done it again, in other words, and produced a car that is entirely without competitors at this price point, except for the ones it makes in-house.
www.autoexpress.co.uk
Verdict IF the full-fat Cayman GT4 seems like exceptionally fine value at £75,000 when compared to a 911 GT3, then the new GTS is even more impressive. It uses the same brilliant 4.0-litre flat-six engine and six-speed manual gearbox, rides on less focused but arguably more road-appropriate tyres and suspension, and is over £11,000 less than the GT4. Nothing else in this class comes close.

THERE’s now a bewildering amount of choice in the small-SUV market. UK buyers have no less than 20 cars to choose from, and here’s the latest arrival – the all-new Peugeot 2008. It uses a platform that means petrol, diesel and pure-electric versions of the 2008 are available; most rivals simply stick with petrol power alone. And if that’s not enough of a unique lure, the newcomer’s distinctive styling might stick out in what’s becoming a conventional-looking class. Things get better inside, too. The 2008’s dashboard looks great, and it has the build quality to match; only the Mazda CX-30 feels on its level for fit and finish at this sort of price. There’s fancy 3D digitalinstrument tech ahead of the driver, too. As for family matters, the 2008 is fairly spacious inside. Rear legroom is pretty reasonable, while a 434-litre boot is above average for a car like this. So far so good.
Lively
For a class so packed, very few contenders offer anything special from behind the wheel. Exceptions are few and far between, but the 2008 is one of them. The Citroen C3 Aircross is more comfortable and the Ford Puma more fun, but the Peugeot delivers a pretty good balance between the two. The chassis feels lively, but the damping is absorbent and noise from large bumps is impressively muted from inside the cabin. Peugeot reckons the most popular engine will be the PureTech 130 petrol, and it’s our favourite option, too. It’s a smooth 128bhp 1.2-litre turbo unit with performance, refinement and economy in equal measure. The six-speed manual gearbox isn’t too bad either, but the shifting process is spoiled somewhat by the odd square-shaped gearlever and the familiar PSA long throw. The 2008 is well equipped, though. It comes in a choice of four trim levels, with base Active models offering 16-inch alloys, a seven-inch touchscreen, air-conditioning, LED daytime running lights and rear parking sensors as standard. The Allure+ adds 17-inch wheels, automatic air-con, front and rear parking sensors and black roof bars, while upgrading to sat-nav is a £650 option. The GT Line driven here jumps another inch in wheel size, and also adds a reversing camera, navigation and heated front seats. The top-end GT model adds a host of safety technology along with a panoramic roof, plus the 3D i-Cockpit instruments. But here’s the problem. Yes, the 2008 is well built, good to drive, well equipped and fairly practical, but so

Prices for the 2008 start from £20,150 for a 99bhp petrol model in Active trim. By contrast, a Renault Captur in Play trim, offering the same power from its turbocharged petrol engine – plus larger 17-inch wheels – costs £17,595. And given Renault’s current zero per cent finance offer on the entry-level Captur, the 2008 loses further ground when you look closely into money. Put down a £1,082 deposit (a figure to which Renault will contribute a further
£500) and the Captur Play TCe 100 will cost £219 per month over a two-year agreement. Now we admit that’s cheap compared with any car in this class, but it highlights the Peugeot’s higher interest rate and initial price; on similar terms, the 2008 will set you back £343.96 per month. The top-spec 2008 GT, fitted with a 153bhp petrol and eight-speed automatic gearbox costs £31,575. A Captur with the same power output costs a whopping seven grand less, and there’s simply no competition on monthly bills.

NEWCARS Lamborghini Huracán Evo Spyder Alex Ingram
Alex_Ingram@dennis.co.uk @AxleIngram
THUMB possibly the coolest starter button on any car – it’s hidden beneath a fighter jet-style flip lid – and the midmounted, 631bhp, 5.2-litre V10 engine of the new Lamborghini Huracán Evo Spyder bursts into life with a shocking bark. This is essentially a mid-life refresh for Lamborghini’s drop-top supercar, which now packs more power than ever in a bid to keep its nose ahead of the Audi R8 Spyder. It’s significantly more expensive than its Audi sibling, but significantly more powerful, too, owing to this extensive update for 2020. Pull on the right-hand paddle shifter and move away, and the Huracán bobbles along the road. The low-speed ride is comfortable enough by supercar standards, but switch to the more aggressive Sport or Corsa modes, and it becomes unpleasantly firm. The optional lifting system, which raises the front axle ride height by 40mm at the flick of a switch, is an absolutely vital extra for negotiating speedbumps, albeit at £2,710. But up the pace and there’s so much composure to exploit. Body roll is nonexistent, the four-wheel-drive system gives a great feeling of security, and direction changes – courtesy of both four-wheel steering and a torque vectoring system – happen near-instantaneously. If there’s one small gripe, it’s that the light steering lacks the ultimate detail you’d hope for in something so utterly focused. But it’s the engine that utterly dominates the experience. With 631bhp produced at a screaming 8,000rpm, any fleeting bursts of full-throttle acceleration are savage. Few
things on the road are quite as astonishing to drive near the red line. The soundtrack is borderline anti-social in Corsa mode, with booming, sonorous yelps bouncing off trees and buildings, and back into the cabin. In reality, the chances to do so on public roads are few and far between, but even on a cold, damp winter’s morning, exploiting everything the V10 has to offer results in little more than a slight squirm from the fat Pirelli P Zero tyres. Any number of superlatives could be levelled at the noise, but in short, no matter how well tuned Ferrari’s and McLaren’s latest turbocharged engines sound, they don’t hold a candle to the drama of the Huracán’s V10. Dropping the fabric roof makes the driving experience all the more intense. There’s very little buffeting with the hood down, and the powerful heated seats mean you can enjoy the open air even on a crisp February day. Special though the Huracán undoubtedly is, if you live with the Lamborghini from day to day, some of its classic supercar quirks will prove to be a complete pain, quite literally in one particular case. Settle into the sports seats for anything more than an hour, and your lower back will feel the effects. And unlike some car seats, which work better for some body types than others, these ones don’t seem to discriminate. All but one member of the Auto Express team – all shapes and sizes – who had a go felt the same way about the Lambo’s seats
and cabin ergonomics. It’s a cockpit which seems no less flamboyant than the rest of the car. Some people might find it fussy and difficult to negotiate. And those more than six-foot tall will find it quite snug in the cabin. The first gripe is the indicator switch. Big gearshift paddles mean traditional stalks aren’t possible, and Lamborghini’s solution is a tiny flick switch on the left of the steering wheel, which is annoyingly fiddly to use. Another complaint is the infotainment screen, which does without Android Auto, even when the £2,440 smartphone integration pack is included. And that’s the tip of a pricey optionslist iceberg. A reversing camera costs an extra £1,440. A smoker’s package and a cup holder? £540. Then there’s the paint: yes, the ‘Arancio Xanto’ deep metallic orange looks absolutely glorious, but it costs almost £10,000. Throw in all of the other extras and it means the car you see in these pictures comes to £226,531, which is £44,750 above the list price. However, models like the Lamborghini Huracán are never defined by their value for money, and put simply, there’s so much raw performance and exuberance on show that those well heeled enough to afford the Lambo will quickly forget the price tag. In the desirability stakes, it’s a full rung ahead of the Audi R8, and wears its price accordingly.

NEWCARS Audi RS 6 Avant Sean Carson
sean_carson@dennis.co.uk @sean_carson_
WHEN it comes to super-saloons and estates, the arms race between the German manufacturers has moved away from chasing ludicrous power outputs and more towards tech – and there’s no better example of this than the new Audi RS 6 Avant. We’ve driven it for the first time in the UK to see just how that tech copes with our roads. Of course, there’s still more power with this new, fourth-generation car – 592bhp to be precise. But it’s a smaller jump on from its predecessor than other generational steps in the RS 6 Avant’s lineage. There’s also 800Nm of torque from the 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, and the engine is one area where much of the development has been focused. It now has 48-volt mildhybrid tech to help boost efficiency, even if a claim of 22.6mpg is quite thirsty. Still, the stop-start system can be activated at up to 13mph, while the car can also coast, engine off, between 34-99mph. This 48-volt set-up also brings active roll control.
Flexible
While there’s no doubt that this helps usability, it’s the engine that still dominates the package. It’s so flexible. With that huge peak torque figure available from just 2,050rpm, the RS 6 delivers its acceleration in an easy, effortless lope. There’s minimal turbo lag, so response is good, too. The engine will rev out, with maximum power produced at 6,000rpm, but there’s so much low down that it feels less eager at high revs. The engine note also sounds more synthesised; the RS 6 sounds best burbling in the mid-range with the £1,450 optional sports exhaust fitted to our test car. Traction is great thanks to quattro fourwheel drive, which helps cut the 0-62mph sprint to just 3.6 seconds, while all RS 6s feature a sport differential on the rear axle for torque vectoring to help improve agility. There’s also rear-wheel steering to boost how quickly the RS 6 turns, and it’s easy to get to grips with. The steering is light in Comfort mode but artificially weighty, squidgy and resistive in Dynamic, so we prefer the middle mode you can choose when setting your pre-sets with the new RS driving mode feature. Regardless of your choice, there’s not a lot of feel, although there is plenty of grip. You also get adaptive air suspension as standard, but on optional 22-inch alloys, the ride comfort was mixed. It copes with rolling roads and softer bumps, but harsher inputs highlight inconsistencies in the set-up and the RS 6 sometimes crashes, sometimes wallows, sometimes controls movement well, and sometimes lumbers over the road. We also tried the £1,300 RS Plus steel spring set-up with adaptive dampers, which is much better. The car feels better tied down with tauter, more reactive body control, yet the dampers also better absorb inputs, improving ride comfort. In comfort the Audi feels surprisingly supple, given how big the wheels are. It moves with a relaxed, fluid and smooth motion to the damping, not ironing

FIRST UK DRIVE Is super-estate the ultimate sports car all-rounder? NEED TO KNOW
Eight-speed auto is smooth, but manual shifts aren’t quite as sharp as the latest dual-clutch setups, with a little lag and some jerkiness to the gearchange
Touchscreen infotaiment looks great. Carbon fibre marks cabin out from standard A6’s out bumps but tracking over the majority of them relatively serenely. This is partly where its usability comes e from. Other elements that add to that include the 565-litre boot with a powered tailgate, while the back seats are extremely spacious.. The level of standard kit is also brilliant, as you’d hope with a £92,750 price tag. Matrix LED headlights with laser lights, e heated and vented leather seats, four-zone climate control and Audi’s super-sharp h three-screen MMI infotainment set-up with Virtual Cockpit (including a special RS skin) are all included. There’s also a rear camera, parking sensors, CarPlay and
Android Auto, wireless charging, cruise control, AEB and lane-departure warning. Cabin quality is great and all the kit is well integrated, but if there’s one criticism, it’s that it’s similar to a standard A6. The RS 6 doesn’t feel as special as some rivals inside.

PRACTICALITY Powered tailgate is standard, while car’s five-metre length means there’s plenty of legroom in the rear. Four-wheel steering really helps with the car’s manoeuvrability
Verdict THE RS 6 Avant’s talent lies in how it combines blistering pace, superb refinement, silky comfort, masses of practicality and lots of tech and kit in one package that’s so desirable on many fronts. It’s not the sharpest or most dynamic super-estate, but if you want one car to cover many bases, which these machines have to, it’s difficult to look past Audi’s fastest load-lugger.

Howe Expert insight James_Howe@dennis.co.uk
Prices are correct at time of publication. Some representative prices include finance incentives
IT’S no secret that the new car marketplace today is dominated by SUVs of all sizes. However, it’s the smallest ones that are proving particularly popular with buyers. Largely based on supermini underpinnings but boasting the raised driving position and extra flexibility that so many motorists crave, small SUVs suit modern family life perfectly; many models stand not only as viable supermini alternatives, but also as rivals to more traditional, larger family hatchbacks. Pioneering cars in this class, like the original Nissan Juke, set the benchmark for small SUVs and since then, every manufacturer has rushed to get its own piece of the action. There’s now something different for just about everyone, so whether you prioritise comfort, practicality, sportiness or style – or any combination thereof – there’s bound to be something to suit you in the showrooms. Our rundown of the very best small SUVs includes a model to match every taste and requirement; some of the cars are genuinely fun to drive, while others prioritise passenger comfort above all else. As a rule, those vehicles towards the top of our list do the best job of balancing everyday considerations such as practicality with driver appeal, value and good looks. Our list only scratches the surface of what’s available, of course, such is the ever-expanding scale of this segment – but we reckon the models in our top 10 are the best of the current bunch.

Throw in decent infotainment (although Android Auto isn’t available) and you’re left with a very appealing SUV. The Countryman is comfortably larger than most cars on this list and so benefits from a big boot (450 litres, or slightly less in the plug-in), good space for passengers in the rear seats and a generally more refined driving experience. Like all MINIs, it has been developed with a bias towards sporty characteristics but remains comfortable, albeit with a firmer edge to the ride. Two interesting options in the range include the four-wheel-drive, 302bhp John Cooper Works model with its fearsome performance and sporty looks, along with the more eco-conscious Plug-in Hybrid. The
former manages 0-62mph in 5.1 seconds, while the latter isn’t much slower and can travel up to 26 miles on electric power alone. As ever, customisation is a big draw to MINI ownership, helping to make the Countryman a great choice if you can’t quite bring yourself to sacrifice style in the name of practicality.

It can’t quite match that car’s levels of quality and polish, but is a strong contender. First introduced in 2017, the T-Roc isn’t as modern as the newer cars here but still holds
its own. A tried-and-tested engine range, stylish interior and a comfortable, refined driving experience count in its favour, while there’s more space inside than in VW’s T-Cross. Four-wheel drive is optional on more cars in the range than you’ll find on smaller SUVs, but the 4MOTION system eats into boot space.

the market. Refreshingly, it’s a ‘proper’ SUV, too; with its tall suspension and optional four-wheel drive, the Duster is a genuinely capable off-roader that has found favour with those whose car needs to cope with farm tracks, bad weather or the odd jaunt over a field. It may not be the most exciting model to drive, nor the safest or best-equipped, but the Duster is simply impossible to ignore thanks to its sheer bang for buck.
Buying advice
Our top tips before you head to the showroom THANKFULLY, there’s very little to get wrong with small SUVs. Any one of our recommended models will offer a practical combination of comfort, space and reasonable running costs, plus the desirable combination of a tall ride height, easy access and great all-round visibility. It’s just a case of deciding which model will best suit your requirements. As with all new car purchases, it’s best to first decide which engine makes most sense for your planned use. Assessing your annual mileage and average journey distance can help you decide; as a rough guide, those covering more than 12,000 miles a year and doing long motorway trips will be best served by a diesel, while lower mileages and shorter journeys (even with occasional longer ones) will usually warrant a petrol model. Most of the cars listed here are front-wheel drive as standard; this set-up will suit the most motorists in the UK, with the added benefit of lower emissions and improved economy over an equivalent four-wheel-drive model. We only recommend spending extra on four-wheel drive if you live at the end of a farm track or in an area with heavy annual snowfall. The exception to this rule is performance; hot cars such as the VW T-Roc R and MINI Countryman John Cooper Works use all-wheel drive to great effect. Consider whether or not you plan to regularly carry four or five people in your small SUV; some are better than others at accommodating an entire family at once. Similarly, if you own a pet, be sure to check that there’s enough space for it in the boot; many small SUVs have a deep load area but might be tight for big dogs.

Audi Q2 SHARING much with the VW T-Roc, the stylish Q2 offers a good amount of space inside and Audi’s high build quality. Some cheap plastics and dated infotainment let it down, though. It still works well as an overall package despite its relative age, however, while the sporty SQ2 is a viable rival for more traditional hot hatchbacks.

It’s well built, has a great range of petrol and diesel engines, and benefits from a good trade-off between ride quality and handling; go from a Skoda Kamiq or VW T-Cross into the SEAT and you won’t notice a huge difference in the way they drive. The Arona’s a solid choice, but just trails its stablemates for practicality. The biggest difference between the Arona and its sister cars is its trim structure; while Skoda and VW offer base trim levels that can be supplemented by individual cost options, SEAT buyers wanting more kit have to step up a trim level or two. Entry-level SE cars are well equipped but you’ll need SE Technology to upgrade the infotainment, for example. The only options beyond SEAT’s trims are paint finishes for the body and contrasting roof. Weigh up the Arona’s pricing against the kit you need and you may find it works out

Mazda CX-3 WITH quality to rival the best cars here and a driving experience that’s lots of fun, the CX-3 is a strong contender.

Nissan Juke THE car that started it all recently got a muchneeded replacement, and the latest Juke is a solid, practical SUV that’s stylish. Yet it’s outclassed for ride quality and refinement; we think it’s important for a small SUV to have a base level of composure and comfort that’s lacking in the Juke on UK roads.

CITROEN likes to do things its own way and its small-SUV offering is no exception. Where some rival manufacturers focus on performance and driver involvement, the C3 Aircross is refreshingly relaxed; soft, forgiving suspension and equally cosseting seating are the order of the day. It’s a little older than some more modern competitors in mechanical terms, but the C3 still keeps up. The Aircross’s engines are strong and offer respectable economy, and while it’s not exactly sporty or precise, the Citroen remains largely refined and comfortable. Its soft suspension can be easily overwhelmed by mid-corner bumps and the steering is a little lifeless, however. Still, some of the biggest reasons to pick the C3 Aircross over its more rounded competitors are the amount of interior space and practicality on offer. The Citroen boasts sliding rear seats, a large boot and lots of space for passengers to travel in comfort. While it falls behind on in-car tech and overall composure, the C3 Aircross remains one of the more flexible options on this list.

The ICE car is worth considering against its more conventional rivals, too, however; the 1.2-litre petrol engine is excellent (especially in 128bhp form), build quality in the spacious, stylish interior is good, and the car feels planted, precise and comfortable on the move.

JUST as the latest Renault Captur (See P42) shares its platform with the Clio, the new Ford Puma is based on the Fiesta supermini. And that connection is very good news. While the use of the iconic Puma badge has ruffled some feathers, Ford has done a great job of making sure its new SUV lives up to its sporty name. The new Puma is one of the best-driving cars in this class thanks to its great steering, honed chassis and slick six-speed gearbox; it feels much like a higher, more spacious Fiesta. A new mild-hybrid engine sits under the bonnet and while it’s not the most sophisticated or refined unit, it performs well and should be economical. Inside, all will be familiar to Fiesta owners in terms of design and quality: it’s not quite

VOLKSWAGEN’S offering in the smallSUV class is one of the best. The T-Cross is broadly similar to the Skoda Kamiq, but adds a little more style and desirability to the mix over its Czech cousin. And the T-Cross is a great choice if you want all the benefits of the VW Group’s MQB A0 platform but want to express your individuality: Volkswagen offers a range of design packs, each of which adds a unique look to the already-handsome SUV. A familiar line-up of engines covers all the bases, with the more powerful of the 1.0-litre petrol units providing a particularly good blend of performance, economy and
refinement. The Volkswagen SUV drives well, feeling agile and grippy but stopping short of providing real excitement, while the light steering is great around town and in tighter spots. Overall, the T-Cross is easy and relaxing to drive. It’s broadly similar to cheaper cars from sister brands Skoda and SEAT, but if you’re willing to pay a little more for the privilege, the T-Cross is a great choice. It’s not all about extra brand kudos and customisation scope, though, because the Volkswagen brings a sliding rear bench for improved flexibility, plus marginally better residual values than its Skoda and SEAT rivals.

Thankfully, it’s better than ever. Based on the excellent new Renault Clio hatchback, the Captur is a stylish and comfortable SUV that’s good enough to fight for the top spot in this class. At time of writing we have yet to drive the newest Captur in the UK, but we’ve tested it abroad and loved what we found. Standout features include a well designed and built interior, a big boot and plenty of equipment; a decent range of petrol and diesel engines with great claimed economy figures also helps the Renault’s cause. The Captur will appeal to those drivers who want a bit of flair from their small SUV. The Renault looks the part and drives well, too, with its precise steering and controlled yet comfortable ride making it bang on the money in this class. Renault has also made the secondgeneration version more refined and comfortable than the previous model, so the Captur is now a much more viable option for longer journeys.

NEW Jeep Baby SUV JEEP is expected to release a small, retro-styled SUV, previewed in our exclusive image, as one of its first projects following the FCA/PSA partnership.

Based on the Volkswagen Group’s widely used MQB A0 architecture, it hits all the right notes. It’s spacious, practical and powered by a range of efficient, triedand-tested engines, all the while remaining decent – if not totally electrifying – to drive. It shares much of its mechanicals with the Volkswagen T-Cross and SEAT
Arona elsewhere on this list, but trumps both of these models on value for money. You’ll spot the difference between the Kamiq and its relatives – notably on the interior plastics front – but it’s still well built and sensibly appointed. Top-spec SE L cars have a great 9.2-inch infotainment system that pairs nicely with Skoda’s Virtual Cockpit display, while SE models
have an eight-inch system with Android Auto and wireless Apple CarPlay functionality. The Kamiq is as good to drive as the T-Cross, rides comfortably and feels almost as nice inside. It lacks the VW’s sliding rear seats but counters with great legroom in the back and a decent load space with the seats folded. The Skoda is a talented, practical car that’s pretty hard to beat.

Dacia Duster vs MG ZS
A chip off the
old block?
Dacia has updated the Duster with a new engine, so is it still the best budget SUV? We test it against the MG ZS to find out Testers’ notes
“Both cars use three-cylinder petrol engines, which is what buyers now expect in this class. More expensive rivals, such as the SEAT Arona and VW T-Cross, also use this type of unit, and it’s a good g fit because they are cheap to run, and quiet.”
Sean Carson Chief reviewer Se
ROAD TESTS THE Dacia Duster is one of our favourite small SUVs. Probably the best thing about it is the price, which undercuts nearly every other new car on sale, but that would mean nothing without the product itself being good on merit – and the Duster is. It’s proven itself a winner in previous tests, yet when you take a closer look at the car’s engines the Dacia was beginning to look a little old hat compared with more modern rivals that use more sophisticated turbo units than the Duster’s old-school non-turbo 1.6. However, for 2020 Dacia has upgraded the car with a new petrol engine taken from sister brand Renault and its proven Clio supermini. The 1.0-litre unit replaces the old naturally aspirated 1.6-litre petrol engine as the entrylevel motor. The turbo should bring a more modern-feeling power delivery, more easily accessible performance and therefore greater flexibility, plus lower running costs. Here we’ll find out how well it does in these areas and more, as it goes up against another affordable SUV with a 1.0-litre turbo engine: the MG ZS. This is one of few rivals that is also focused on value for money, but both must offer more than just an attractive price to end up as our winner. Pictures: Otis Clay

ROAD TESTS Dacia Duster vs MG ZS MODEL TESTED: Dacia Duster TCe 100 4x2 Comfort
PRICE: £13,995 ENGINE: 1.0-litre 3cyl, 99bhp HERE we’re testing a Dacia Duster 1.0 TCe 100 in Comfort trim, which costs £13,995; and despite the affordable price, this is actually the most expensive model you can get with this engine.
Design & engineering
3.7
THIS updated version of the Duster was launched in summer 2018, using the same basic architecture as the previous model (and some older Renaults), and with a naturally aspirated 1.6-litre petrol at the bottom of the range. That engine is now gone, and instead Dacia has introduced this new 99bhp 1.0-litre unit. That old engine was never one of the car’s strong points. The 1.6-litre motor was noisy and needed to be revved hard for any performance. This new engine solves both of these problems, although it’s not faultless (see Driving, below). It powers the front wheels only, because there’s no 4x4 option with this engine, and does so through a five-speed manual gearbox. While the MG ZS in 1.0 form is auto-only, the Dacia is available just with a clutch pedal in conjunction with the new TCe unit. Given that this is a budget car, there are no driving modes or complex suspension set-ups. Just about the only mechanical change you can make from the dashboard is to turn off the stop-start function. The Dacia’s interior is quite old-fashioned and drab. The materials look and feel cheap (but then this is a cheap car), so sitting in the Duster feels like being in a car from years gone by, rather than a new machine. Although the MG also suffers from this problem, it’s slightly better than the Dacia in this respect. It’s still acceptable given the low price, though, so we don’t mind too much. In Comfort trim, the Duster is well equipped. It comes as standard with a seven-inch touchscreen with sat-nav, air-conditioning, 16-inch alloys and a reversing camera with parking sensors.

4.0
THE new 1.0 is much quieter than before and it’s actually barely audible at low revs once you’re on the move, only bringing noise into the cabin from around 3,000rpm. You don’t need to rev it much further than that, because its maximum torque of 160Nm is produced from 2,750rpm. In our performance tests the Duster took 12.8 seconds to go from 0-60mph, which was just under a second slower than the ZS, because the MG has a touch more power and more gear ratios. The Duster doesn’t feel far behind its rival, though, because it loses quite a bit of time in the shift from second to third gear; in normal driving it feels just as punchy. In fact, it was even quicker than the MG from 30-50mph in third, taking 5.3 seconds where the ZS took 6.3 seconds. Plus, it went from 50-70mph in fifth gear in 15.7 seconds, yet the MG took 17.4 seconds to do the same. The new TCe engine’s main problem is its throttle response, which is poor and can result in unwanted surging, especially on the motorway. Thanks to the soft suspension, this can also cause forward and backward body movements. However, the suspension set-up is largely good; the Duster is

not a driver’s car because of the amount of body roll this set-up brings, yet that’s not too important; it gives a comfy enough ride, although it is a little crashy and loose over bad surfaces. The Dacia does suffer from some wind and road noise at higher speeds, but it’s quieter than you might expect, and long trips aren’t a problem. On the other hand, the Dacia’s five-speed manual gearbox isn’t much fun to use. There’s some flex in the lever and linkage, so it feels imprecise, and that means you have to take your time with shifts.

REAR-seat space is strong in the Dacia, because there’s plenty of room even for adults to sit comfortably, with enough head and legroom. The cheap materials mean it’s hardly luxurious, but there’s no shortage of space. The Duster’s boot has a capacity of 445 litres with the seats up, and that expands to 1,623 with the rear bench folded. Meanwhile, the MG has 448 litres with the seats up and 1,375 with them down. Both cars are practical, but the Dacia makes slightly better use of its space and is easy to load up. Hard-wearing materials in the cabin should mean it will wear the battle scars of family life well – and when we ran one on our test fleet last year, we found that the Duster’s rugged looks weren’t just for show. It took everything we could throw at it.

IN our 2019 Driver Power satisfaction survey, Dacia finished in a poor 30th place overall, although that was only three places behind its MG rival. Autonomous emergency braking isn’t available on either the Duster or the ZS, so both scored poorly in their Euro NCAP assessment, each getting three stars. Neither car performed strongly in crash safety either, so safety may be a concern for some buyers.

ACCORDING to our depreciation experts, the Duster will hold on to 53.8 per cent of its value after three years (£7,524). By contrast, the ZS will keep just 43.8 per cent (£7,025) of its original value, so it’ll lose over £2,500 more than the Dacia in that time. This also has an effect on the PCP prices, and the Duster is much cheaper than its rival as a result. The Duster returned 29.4mpg on our test route, while the MG managed 36.1mpg. This works out at £2,369 a year (12,000 miles) to fuel the Dacia and £1,930 a year for the MG at current fuel prices.

THERE are three trim levels to pick from if you’re going with the 1.0-litre TCe engine: Access, Essential and Comfort. The entry-level Access model is very basic, with 16-inch steel wheels, fabric upholstery and daytime running lights, but not much else. Put down a £1,500 deposit on a 36-month PCP deal limited to 10,000 miles a year and you’ll pay £136 a month for this version. Essential is £157 a month on the same terms and adds steering-wheel adjustment, air-con and roof bars, so it’s still lacking kit modern car buyers might expect. This equipment – sat-nav, a reversing camera and cruise control – comes with Comfort spec, so this is the version we’d pick. It’s £179 a month on our example deal, so offers much better value than the MG.
ROAD TESTS Dacia Duster vs MG ZS MODEL TESTED: MG ZS 1.0T GDI Auto Excite
PRICE: £16,045 ENGINE: 1.0-litre 3cyl, 109bhp ALTHOUGH our pictures show a higher-spec ZS, we’re testing an entry-level version, because it’s closer to the Dacia in price, at £16,045. In other words, even the cheapest version of the MG is still over £2,000 pricier than its rival in top-spec form.

3.3
TWO engines are on offer in the MG ZS: a naturally aspirated 1.5-litre petrol and the 1.0-litre turbocharged petrol we’re testing here. The former is manual-only, while the latter only comes with a dual-clutch automatic gearbox, and it’s front-wheel drive. With 109bhp, the MG’s engine is a little more powerful than the Duster’s, yet both have 160Nm of torque. But that torque arrives lower down in the rev range in the ZS than in its rival: the Duster’s figure arrives at 2,750rpm, while the MG’s comes in from 1,800rpm. The Duster’s five-speed gearbox uses shorter ratios, so you’re in the right rev range more of the time, while the MG uses a six-speed auto. This is the only gearbox available with this motor, and if you want a manual MG you need the 1.5-litre petrol. But that engine isn’t very good so we’d still opt for the smaller and crucially turbocharged motor. The MG’s interior has a different feel to the Dacia’s, yet the overall effect is similar; there’s no disguising these are budget cars, and the quality of the materials inside reflects that. The MG has some better-looking plastics in key places, so you could say it’s a bit more pleasant inside, but it’s still drab. Few will choose either of these cars based on their interior designs, which are plain and uninspiring. There’s a decent amount of standard equipment, though, which is perhaps more important to buyers. This Excite model is fitted with 17-inch alloys, airconditioning, a leather steering wheel and an eightinch infotainment system with Apple CarPlay functionality, although there’s no sat-nav.

THE MG’s 1.0-litre engine is similar in character to the Dacia’s, because it delivers its best performance in the middle of the rev range, feeling rather unenthusiastic at higher revs. It has a bit more power than the Duster’s motor, but it’s only 10bhp, so it’s not hugely noticeable on the road. Our performance tests did show that it had an advantage from 0-60mph, though, taking 11.9 seconds to do the sprint, while the Dacia took 12.8 seconds. However, the ZS fell behind in our in-gear tests, because it was slower in every one apart from 30-50mph in fourth gear, where it took eight seconds flat, the same as its rival. The Duster went from 30-50mph in third gear a second faster than the MG, and the British model was also 1.7 seconds slower than its rival in our test from 50-70mph in fifth gear. The dual-clutch transmission in the MG sounds promising on paper, because this type of gearbox is usually known for its fast shifts. However, the MG’s DCT is sluggish, bucking this trend, and even the imprecise manual shift in the Duster is better to use, because it allows smoother progress. The ZS sometimes picks the wrong ratio when accelerating

out of a bend, only to kick down late, causing a surge in the revs that you don’t always expect. Still, like the Duster’s new 1.0-litre engine, the MG’s motor is quiet at a cruise. There is some wind and road noise at speed that drowns it out, though, and the poor ride sometimes adds interior creaks and rattles to the soundtrack. The MG doesn’t match its rival for comfort; it can’t keep body movements over bumps under control as well as the Dacia does. It’s never fully settled, so long trips will be tough. The car isn’t much fun to drive either; body control and grip aren’t strong points. Despite the MG badge, the ZS is about as far from sporty as cars get – and the switchable driving modes do little to alter the way it drives.

IF the MG has a strongest point, it’s how much space it has inside. There’s enough room for passengers in the back and there’s enough light in the cabin. We’ve already seen there’s plenty of boot space, at 448 litres with the seats in place, which is a little more than in the Duster. The ZS’s price-to-space ratio is impressive. However, don’t pick the MG if you need to tow a trailer; its maximum capacity for a braked trailer is just 500kg. The Duster can pull 1,400kg, but its wheezy engine would likely struggle if you tried.

HIGHER CO2 emissions mean that the MG loses out when it comes to company car tax. It emits 145g/km of CO2, putting it in the 33 per cent bracket for Benefit-inKind (BiK). This means a standard-rate earner will pay £1,041 to the Treasury each year. The cheaper Duster sits several bands lower in the 28 per cent bracket thanks to emissions of 120g/km, which mean a yearly bill of £771 for the same taxpayer. Fixed-price servicing at just £350 for the Duster means it should be cheap to maintain as well as to buy, and even the limited options available on the Dacia are cheaper than their equivalents on the MG. For example metallic paint costs £40 more on the ZS.

Key features: Sat-nav, smartphone link THE Duster’s infotainment set-up is functional and comes with sat-nav fitted as standard – something that is missing from the MG’s system. The interface uses chunky, colourful buttons, which means it’s reasonably easy to understand, but the system is slow to load, the screen isn’t very responsive, and it looks very cheap and downmarket. However, you do get Android Auto and Apple CarPlay functionality, and these are the best way to operate the system. The USB port is oddly located, on the top of the screen bezel, and there’s no great place to put your handset when it’s plugged in, because the cable blocks your view of the screen in right-handdrive cars, which seems an oversight in the UK. The system works well enough otherwise. A reversing camera is standard here too, which is a useful bit of kit, along with DAB radio and a decent stereo.

The graphics are slightly sharper, but it’s just as unresponsive and frustrating to use as its rival’s – with the addition of even more confusing menus. Ultimately it’s not a good system and most will prefer to use the standard Apple CarPlay. But there’s no Android Auto, which is a shame because it excludes plenty of buyers, and it’s standard on the Duster. Sat-nav is not fitted to Excite models, so you’ll have to rely on your phone for navigation. This isn’t the big downside it once was, but it’s still a disadvantage here. The MG also misses out on a reversing camera unless you go for the top-spec Exclusive car. There aren’t any options you can add at all, in fact.

THE Duster takes victory on many fronts. It’s cheaper than its rival, more comfortable, equally practical, and the new engine is quiet and delivers just enough performance. Plus, its rugged feel gives it charm and character. Perhaps most importantly, it’s much better value for money than the MG, and this is crucial given these are budget models. It has more equipment at a lower price, which is a huge advantage.

BRANDS
BOOT
THE MG has a bigger boot than the Duster with its rear seat up, but less space with it folded down. Both are practical for the cash.
THE Dacia brand is Romanian, but French firm Renault owns and manufactures the cars. This means there’s lots of switchgear inside that comes from older Renault models, such as the previous Clio. The MG name is British, and the brand was known for its sports cars in the past, but the company now mainly builds SUVs and is owned by SAIC Motor, a Chinese car manufacturer.
SAFETY
BOTH cars suffer from poor safety ratings, especially because they lack autonomous braking - a must in the modern world really.
EMISSIONS
HIGH CO2 emissions of 145g/km mean that the MG is more expensive to tax as a company car than its rival here.
2nd
THE ZS is more expensive than the Duster, and falls behind its rival in many key areas, so simply can’t compete. Its chassis and ride are disappointing, the gearbox is frustrating, you don’t get as much kit, and it’ll cost more to run, too. Poor residual values mean it’s costly on finance, and the frustrating infotainment set-up is harder to forgive without satnav or Android Auto being included.
GO ELECTRIC? THE petrol-powered ZS isn’t the range’s sweet spot. The engine and gearbox could be better, but there is a solution. The MG ZS EV is one of our favourite affordable pureelectric cars, and it offers strong performance, ultra-low running costs and a claimed 163-mile range from its 44.5kWh battery. Priced from £22,495 after the plug-in grant with lots of standard kit and rapid-charge capability, it’s an EV worth considering.

And it’s something we’re going to be able to enjoy a lot more with our cars: quick makeovers that make us feel like new. My I-Pace has had an upgrade. So not only will it now go further on each charge, the infotainment is also a whole lot more reliable, and the car will now receive further upgrades via the magic of the Internet. SOTA (or OTA) – standing for Software Over The Air – refers to the ability to upgrade without visiting a dealer. Sometimes you won’t even notice, but as with your phone, other times there are real benefits. Most noticeable for me was an increase in range of around 10 per cent. Where I used to see a maximum range in cold weather of around 200 miles, this is now up to 220 miles. Still some way short of the claimed range of 258 miles, but in warmer weather I’ve got much closer to that – around 240 miles, which is still pretty impressive. With the change in mindset that EV owners soon adopt, that’s plenty. Planning ahead is key, and the only time I’ve got

caught out is when I had to rely on the UK’s charging infrastructure – especially on the motorway. But with most of my charging done at home or in our office car park, managing my mileage by knowing where I’m going and when, and where I need to charge has meant pain-free electric running. As has Jaguar ownership. I’ll admit to seeing plenty of heads shaking when I’ve told people I’m running a Jaguar; old reliability reputations die hard, it seems. But my car has been absolutely faultless from a mechanical point of view, and the few infotainment foibles I’ve had have been fixed by SOTA updates. Brilliant. That’s part of the story I’ve enjoyed telling people about the car, and boy, do they ask – there’s huge interest in the Jag and EVs. All in all, the I-Pace has been a joy to run. It’s cheap, too. As a very rough estimate, a full charge at home costs me about £12; try doing 220 miles on £12-worth of fuel in a petrol or diesel car of the same size with the same level of performance. And that performance is the thing I’ve enjoyed most. The instant hit of torque the moment you press the throttle is more
enjoyable than a 0-62mph time of 4.5 seconds suggests. You get it at pretty much any speed and it never fails to bring out a childish giggle in me. It’s not just about straight-line fun, either. Last year I was invited to judge our sister title Auto Bild’s awards, which meant driving the I-Pace on a circuit – not the best place to showcase an electric car’s talents, or so I thought. But no, the I-Pace was sensational; it was quick to react, stuck to its lines well and was quick – just great fun and exactly how a modern Jaguar should feel. No surprise, then, that the I-Pace went on to be the winner in its category, and I was asked to go to Germany to present the trophy to outgoing JLR CEO Sir Ralf Speth. That was the third big trophy I’ve handed over for the I-Pace, following the Auto Express Car of the Year Award in 2018 and World Car of the Year last year, too. You
could say I rate it quite highly! As do the many I-Pace owners I’ve spoken to. As I write this, though, there’s a tinge of sadness as my time with the I-Pace is up. I’ve done a lot of miles in it, my family have spent many hours in it (and they have been as impressed with the comfort and space as I have) and I’ve enjoyed every minute. There are so many highlights: the way it drives, the incredible ride comfort, the impressive Meridian audio system, the level-two autonomous tech on board and the fact that its running costs are super-low. There’s another final challenge for the I-Pace, though, in the hands of Richard Ingram, editor of our sister title Driving Electric. Unlike me, Richard doesn’t have off-street parking so he’s without a charging point. Will that take the shine off what is undoubtedly one of the best cars launched in the past couple of years?

SECOND REPORT Our electrically assisted SUV is king of the sprinters Stuart Milne
Stuart_Milne@dennis.co.uk
ZERO to 62mph in 5.3 seconds. There are SUVs that accelerate faster, I know, but not many can show our Audi Q5 PHEV a clean pair of heels. In fact, it’s only fractionally slower than a Porsche Boxster, and the drivers of plenty of hot hatches wouldn’t know which way it went. It’s not just the numbers that impress, but how the Q5 gathers pace. The initial launch is powerful, but the way the car continues to relentlessly build speed shocks the most. The petrol engine feels muscular, but you’re always aware of the assistance that makes the performance electrifying – in more ways than one. It’s here that you really get a sense of a combustion engine and electric motors working in perfect harmony. While the car carries discreet S line badging and digits on the tailgate that I don’t believe most drivers have really got their heads around, my Q5 ‘55’ doesn’t scream ‘performance’, much less the ‘Competition’ that its full name boasts. Some of that’s down to the Azores Green paint, I think, which is conservative enough to give a Jekyll and Hyde character.
Heavy
But while the Q5 is fast, it’s no sports car. The steering is light and accurate, but at 2,030kg, this Q5 is 50kg heavier than the SQ5, and anything up to 260kg more than the base models. That makes itself known through the corners, so it’s far better to treat the Q5 PHEV as a point-and-squirt machine than something to scythe through bends. It feels better at sedate speeds, and with a reasonable charge in the battery, it switches almost imperceptibly from the electric motors to the four-cylinder turbo petrol engine. Oddly, when the battery is nearing empty, this switch becomes rather laboured and gives a feeling not dissimilar to an auto gearbox hesitating between gearshifts. Unlike traditional hybrids, the Q5 is happy to stay in EV mode at most speeds. In fact, it’s actually quite hard to fire the engine into life unless you really stand on the accelerator. During the recent cold snap, the vagaries of electric-only range have been laid bare. Audi claims around 26 miles from a charge, and I’ve seen 25-16 miles as temperatures drop. Disappointingly, the Q5’s trip computer frequently shows short-term EV economy in the region of one mile per kWh. By comparison, you can expect around 2.5 miles per kWh from an all-electric Audi e-tron. However, look at electric economy combined with hybrid mode, and the Q5 is recording 4.1 miles per kWh. Given the difference a full charge makes to energy use, an overall fuel economy figure of 44mpg isn’t bad, although you need to think ahead to get the best from

a gallon of unleaded. The car defaults to EV mode, which is fine around town, but the battery depletes in fairly short order. For longer drives, it’s best to switch to hybrid mode, where on a 30-odd-mile journey, I’ve seen close to 100mpg, even if the return journey with a flat battery claimed closer to 35mpg. Still, with favourable tax
ratings the Q5, like most PHEVs, makes more financial sense for company car drivers than it does for private motorists. So far, so good then? Not quite, because a fault with the keyless entry system means the car doesn’t always unlock with a pull of the handle as it should. We’ll visit our local Audi dealer soon for some investigation.

Fleetwatch Can’t play Issues with smartphone interface in our Scala are causing Otis all sorts of problems
Skoda Scala OUR Scala’s infotainment system received an update this week. Staff photographer Otis Clay was hoping that the problems he had experienced with the Scala’s set-up would have disappeared after the upgrade – but sadly it still has some glitches. However, we’re not sure if it’s the car’s system or the smartphone interface with Apple CarPlay that’s the problem. The issue is that neither the Google Maps nor Waze app is able to locate Otis’ position properly on the road, which causes the system to constantly re-route him. It doesn’t throw up an error message, though; the apps just think that Otis is driving down a road that he clearly isn’t. The other problem is that all audio can sometimes disappear when a call loses signal. Radio, media, nav, and Bluetooth phone connection all disappear and then the CarPlay connection breaks down shortly after. The only remedy seems to be to turn the car off and leave it for an hour or more, which is a pain. At least when the system is in good form it’s easy to use and full of great features – but this makes these niggles even more annoying.

★★★★★
CREATIVE director Darren Wilson has been trying hard to improve his eco driving style and squeeze a few more miles out of our Corolla hybrid’s tank. Darren finds it easy enough on A-roads and even some motorways. However most of his day-to-day journeys are short, often just a mile or two, and usually first thing in the morning. He’s noticed that it often takes the Corolla a little while to switch into EV power. On the rare occasions Darren’s youngest son Harry gets a lift to school, the journey can be over before the Toyota is able to return any pure EV power. Darren isn’t sure whether it’s due to the cold weather, or just the lack of a longer run than popping to school and the shops to help build up the battery power. Clearing icy windscreens and heating the car do take a toll, but hopefully the economy will improve with the weather.

HOT KIT CLEAN AND PROTECT WITH CERAMIC TECH

NEW PRODUCT Turtle Wax Hybrid ceramic car care Prices: £18 Contact: www.halfords.com
THERE’S no doubt ceramic is the buzzword in the car care world at the moment, and US giant Turtle Wax has entered the fray with a new range that has just gone in to Halfords. Ceramic technology was once the preserve of professionally applied coatings, but it is now filtering down to DIY detailers, and this is the market the new Turtle Wax line-up is aimed at. There are five products in the Halfords range, and all cost £18. Kicking off the line-up is the Ceramic Wash & Wax, which Turtle Wax says has ‘hydro-glide wash polymers’ for scratch-free cleaning. The company also claims it increases the depth of colour and shine. Like all the products, it contains silicone dioxide polymers for super hydrophobic water beading, and up to 12 months of chemicalresistant protection. To remove any paint imperfections there is Ceramic Polish & Wax, which includes polishing agents to remove paintwork scratches and swirls. The remaining three products are designed to leave a final finish. Ceramic Spray Coating is formulated to go on a clean, dry car, plus it can be used in direct sunlight. It aims to leave a glossy protective finish on metal, plastic and glass. For waterless cleaning there is Ceramic 3-in-1 Detailer, which has the Ceramic Wash & Wax’s polymers for scratch-free cleaning, and leaves ceramic protection on the surface. Ceramic Wet Wax saves you drying the car after washing it, because the product goes on to wet paintwork to leave a protective finish. All products in the range come in 500ml packs.

Q
Getting rid of smoky smell
A
IT may not be possible to remove all traces of cigarette smoke, but a thorough vacuum with a brush and crevice tool, plus cleaning of all glass, upholstered and plastic surfaces with an all-purpose cleaner should make a noticeable difference. An air-conditioning cleaner can also help to remove any lingering smoke smell.
Q
What’s my caravan limit?
A
THE car’s towing capacity will be in its handbook, but a useful guide is the 85 per cent rule. You need the car’s kerbweight and the caravan’s ‘maximum technically permissible laden mass’ (MTPLM). The MTPLM should be no more than 85 per cent of the car’s weight for safe towing. Once calculated, check if you need a towing licence.

Alternatively, thirdparty online sellers offer flaps that are claimed to fit the R-Line Arteon; you could take a punt on these, and try returning them if they don’t fit.

Clarke says run time is two hours on maximum output, although there are two power-saving modes to ex extend battery life. The casing, which weatherproofed to IP54 standards, is w also has a USB socket to charge als ele electronic gadgets, while the light its itself can be charged via USB.
VOLKSWAGEN is trialling its We Deliver service – where parcels are delivered directly to a customer’s car rather than their home or workplace (above). UK tests have begun in Milton Keynes, in partnership with the courier Hermes. The courier is given a single-use, timelimited access code and GPS co-ordinates to help locate and access the car, after which they take a photo of the delivery and confirm they’ve locked the vehicle. If trials in Milton Keynes are successful, the service will be rolled out across the UK to owners of VWs fitted with the We Connect Plus package, so most cars built after 2 January 2019 are eligible.

Michael Dregni (Crestline Books, www.quartoknows.co.uk) Price: £11.99 Rating: ★★★★★
NONE of our testers found the ‘warm African spices and aromas’ Lynx reckons are in this long-running fragrance, but it was a firm favourite that very clearly outscored its rivals here. Most assessors mentioned an aftershave smell, yet one female tester rejected it because it ‘smelt of teenage boys’. Fair enough. It was certainly strong at first, but this can be controlled by unscrewing the container top to progressively seal the vent. There’s a high-quality finish to the unit, which can slip into cupholders. You get a hefty 122g of the gel, which barely faded over three weeks in gusting winds, giving us no reason to doubt the claims of a 30-day life. Add in a keen price and you have our pick of this trio.
HOT rodding is one area of American car culture that most petrolheads have an opinion on, because while it’s not so big this side of the pond, who isn’t interested in stuffing lots of power into a classic US car? This is a good read; a reasonably brief history but well illustrated with photos and lots of graphic art.

Lynx out to pounce on car air freshener rivals Kim Adams
BRINGING fragrances more commonly experienced in the shower to your car may not be the most obvious move, but that’s what Halfords did when it added Lynx to its range of air fresheners. So will the deodorant, aftershave and shower gel smells make a welcome travelling companion? To find out we compared gel versions of the Lynx range with Amazon bestseller, California Scents Coronado Cherry, and our test favourite can, Refresh New Car Scented Gel. We assembled a ‘tasting’ panel to assess the perfumes, and checked durability over three weeks outside but under-cover to accelerate use. We also looked for ways to adjust perfume strength, and the ability to sniff before you buy. The final factor was price, taken from online sources. Lynx proved a hit with our tasting panel and led our durability test, so takes the win. It was close between the remaining two, with California Scents finished just ahead of Refresh because it was marginally more popular and had a price advantage.

BEST SELLER California Scents Coronado Cherry
Price: £4.39 Rating: ★★★★★ Contact: www.amazon.co.uk
THIS single unit’s price does it no favours, because it’s available a fair bit cheaper in multipacks and elsewhere online. Marzipan and cherryade were common fragrances es detected, but our panel either loved ed or loathed it. It has an impregnated ed pad to hold the perfume and, while le still clearly present, it had started to fade a little at the end of our test.
TEST FAVOURITE Refresh Scented Gel Price: £5.19 Rating: ★★★★★ Contact: www.amazon.co.uk
IF California Scents’ smell divided opinion, Refresh was no-one’s favourite. It wasn’t disliked, either, scoring middling-to-low with nearly all our testers. No-one spotted the new car smell, but soap or laundry was mentioned when naming perfumes. It remained a match on durability throughout our test, and twisting the top controls the fragrance flow. Like the others, a scratch-and-sniff patch means you can try before you buy.

but none ticked as many boxes as this CTEK, which delivered close to its fiveamp rating. While others fell foul of the EMC and misuse tests, the MXS 5.0 was untroubled and cleared all the hurdles. Instructions are clear, progress easy to follow, and the controls simple to use. The leads could be longer, but we liked the supplied flying lead and the bag to keep everything together. A class act.

RECOMMENDED IF you can’t stretch
to the CTEK, you get a lot for your money with Sealey’s 6.5-amp charger. It’s much bigger than our winner, with similarlength leads and good clamps. While it couldn’t get as close to its stated rating, the Sealey still managed to beat our winner to the 80 per cent charge point when you could start a car by almost two hours. It was on to take the win, before it lost points for sparks in the misuse tests.

RECOMMENDED
ANOTHER keenly priced charger, this time from the Screwfix line-up. If you find chargers baffling this 2020 could be for you, because everything is automatic. The only adjustment is to the display, which defaults to voltage, but can also show charge rate and progress. Short bursts of power when charging meant it could deliver just over half its rated eight amps and hit 80 per cent at close to the same time as the CTEK. Problems in the EMC test meant it finished third.
Clarke IBC7 Price: £59.98 Mean current supply: 5 amps Rating: ★★★★★ Contact: www.machinemart.co.uk
THIS Clarke dwarfs our winner and has usefully longer leads. In the charge test it finished within a few minutes of the Sealey and delivered a similar charge rate, which was a fair bit off the IBC7’s seven-amp rating. It cleared the misuse tests but fell foul of the EMC check, and that prevented a higher finish. The instructions had tiny text in the drawings, and the controls could be easier to use.

IF you just want to get going as quickly as possible after a flat battery, this is ideal. It hit 80 per cent charge in just under 4.5 hours, an hour quicker than the next best, and got close to its 12-amp rating. The SmartCharge can check the alternator and battery state, but you pay for the extra versatility. The clamps had the smallest jaws, causing issues, and this is not the most intuitive unit to use.
WITH the joint lowest rating here, it was no surprise to see the small Ring finish last in the charge test, needing more than 18 hours to hit the 80 per cent charge. The basic display shows voltage and charge progress, and the only choice for drivers is between standard and winter modes. Those seeking more detail will also be disappointed by the superficial instructions. It also looks poor value compared with the Sealey and Maypole.

Battery chargers Kim Adams
BATTERIES are the main cause of coldweather breakdowns, so it pays to have a charger. A good one will not only get you on your way, but will also keep the battery in top condition with regular maintenance. Plus, for infrequently used cars, a charger will keep them ready to go when you want. But choosing a charger is not easy due to the bewildering array of charging modes, battery types and specs, so which is the one to keep you motoring? We went to CTEK’s Swedish R&D centre to find out.

Victron Blue Smart Charger Price: £104.14 Mean current supply: 10.37 amps Rating: ★★★★★ Contact: www.victronenergy.com
THE minimalist design of the display and controls does this Halfords unit no favours, with the lack of obvious buttons and dim light making it hard to fathom. Fortunately, the instructions were one of the best on test, but this does not overcome the lack of a progress display. With a rating of just four amps claimed, the Smart Plus took almost 15 hours to reach 80 per cent – not what we’d expect from a charger at this price. It is pretty versatile thanks to a lithium mode, but that’s not enough to overcome the excessive levels in the EMC test.
UNIQUELY here, this unit can be controlled and monitored via a phone app, yet there was occasionally some lag in information between the two. It also exceeded its 10amp rating in the charge test, chasing the Ring in getting to 80 per cent in just under six hours. There’s a mode for lithium batteries, but for the other types it works with you’ll need to keep the box, because the instructions instructio are patchy.

It was a way off its eightamp rating, needing more than 10 hours to charge to 80 per cent. The display and controls are easy to work out and use, yet the leads were on the short side.

A single reverse-polarity test was its undoing, with erratic performance after that indicating the delivery of a very high voltage before going into error mode. We managed to EMC test it before it was damaged, and it failed.

I WANT to understand the running costs of electric cars with regards to older, depleted batteries. Does the cost-per-mile increase as battery capacity falls over time? Chas M, E-mail
A
THE cost of recharging does not rise as battery capacity falls. Depletion means the battery can no longer hold the same charge as before, so a charger can’t add as much. EV batteries are proving far less prone to depletion than some feared, though. Multiply your electricity rate by your battery capacity to get a full charge’s cost.
Q
Silent treatment from MINI
A
THE stereo fitted to MINIs of this era didn’t allow audio playback via iPhone or iPod cables alone. You’ll need an adaptor with an iPhone connector at one end, and a USB plus 3.5mm aux lead at the other. You could use a 3.5mm aux cable on its own if your phone takes this, but you won’t get control through the stereo.

I’M thinking of buying a plug-in hybrid. If I decide to go ahead, will I have to pay the Congestion Charge in central London, or are PHEVs exempt from this?

IF you buy a PHEV that can travel at least 20 miles on electric power and has official CO2 emissions of less than 75g/km, then it will be exempt from the Congestion Charge. This will change in October 2021, though, when PHEVs will lose their exemption.

BUYER’SGUIDE: MG3
FROM £4,000 Is MG’s smartly styled supermini a tempting used buy? Richard Dredge
MG was founded in 1924 and focused largely on sports cars for its first 60 or so years, before closing in 1980. After that the firm was owned by British Aerospace, BMW, and Rover, during which time it variously produced hot versions of the Rover 25, 45 and 75, plus the MGF roadster. After MG Rover’s demise the MG brand returned under Chinese ownership, and the focus since then has been on hatches and SUVs, with the MG3 supermini being the best seller. It’s neatly styled and decent to drive, plus it offered strong value when new. But how does it stack up second-hand?
History
THE first MG3s were delivered in October 2013 and came with one engine, a 105bhp 1.5-litre non-turbo unit, driving the front wheels via a five-speed manual gearbox. Buyers could choose from 3Time, 3Form, 3Form Sport and 3Style trims, the latter topping the range and priced at £9,999; the cheapest MG3s cost £8,399. Revisions in November 2015 brought lower CO2 emissions (124g/km instead of 136g/km) and more colour options, before a more heavily revised MG3 was launched in September 2018. This had a revamped look inside and out, new trim levels (Explore, Excite and Exclusive) and extra equipment, including standard Bluetooth, and an eightinch touchscreen for Excite and Exclusive editions. A range-topping Exclusive Nav has just been launched with standard sat-nav.
Which one?
THERE are no choices when it comes to mechanical specification, but the MG3 had an array of personalisation options, such as two-tone paint, plus different wheels and decals. The only other options were leather trim and upgraded infotainment; both are worth having – but they were offered only on range-topping models. Spartan entry-level MG3s are best avoided; powered windows and a CD player are the only notable pieces of standard kit. The 3Form adds air-con, a DAB radio, Bluetooth, remote central locking, a leather steering wheel and electrically adjustable heated door mirrors. The 3Form Sport features alloy wheels and a bodykit, while the 3Style adds rear parking sensors, cruise control, plus automatic lights and wipers.
Alternatives
THE Vauxhall Corsa is more sophisticated, plentiful and brings a wider model range and dealer network, but prices aren’t so keen. The same is true for the Ford Fiesta, which is class-leading when it comes to dynamic ability, while the Renault Clio and Peugeot 208 provide tough competition, too. Don’t overlook the SEAT Ibiza and Skoda Fabia, which come with some excellent engines and transmissions; if your budget

have been known to break after the car has covered as little as 15,000 miles, wrecking the engine as a result.
Clutch MG3 clutches can be very
weak. Some owners have experienced juddering or a total failure after less than 20,000 miles of driving.
Paint The MG3’s paint isn’t very

is more generous you could also consider a Volkswagen Polo, which is closely related to the SEAT and Skoda. Also look at the Toyota Yaris and Mazda 2; the latter is especially enjoyable to drive and features a very highquality interior. The Hyundai i20, Kia Rio, Suzuki Swift and Dacia Sandero are all worth a look, especially for their value.
Verdict
THE MG3 isn’t that easy to recommend as a new car because of its narrow range, sharp depreciation and the fact it’s outclassed in many areas by rivals. But low prices mean this neatly styled supermini can make more sense as a used buy, although some consideration must still be given to the lack of a diesel engine or auto box, while the petrol engine is hardly the most efficient. But reliability issues aren’t unknown, while the strength of rivals also count against the 3. Plus looking at the car’s Driver Power reports over the years indicate it isn’t aging as well as might be hoped. So while on paper you get a lot of car for your money, the reality isn’t necessarily as impressive.
Interior
MG3s from 2018 on are much more user-friendly and high-quality than pre-facelift cars. Earlier models got a simple dash with a few ergonomic issues, which became less of a problem in later, higher-spec models fitted with touchscreen infotainment. All MG3s have plenty of cabin and boot space; the latter takes 320 litres with the rear seats up, and 1,262 litres with them down.

WE found around 330 MG3s for sale, so it’s rarer than mainstream rivals. The most popular Exclusive edition makes up more than a third of the MG3s for sale; Excite, 3Style and 3Form Sport each account for one in six. The cheapest MG3s are priced at under £4,000; this bags a pre-facelift car with 50,000 miles, but few have covered more than 25,000. Just £5,000 gets you into a 15,000-mile 16-plate 3Style Lux; the cheapest facelifted cars cost from £8,000, but most are upwards of £8,500. This buys a delivery-mileage MG3 Explore, a 1,500-mile Excite or a 6,000-mile Exclusive, all on a 68- or 19-plate.

just three stars in Euro NCAP tests, with autonomous emergency braking unavailable even as an option.
www.autoexpress.co.uk/driverpower
OUR VIEW THE MG3 finished 85th out of 100 in the 2019 Driver Power used car survey, having come 60th in 2017’s new car survey, 24th in 2016, and 10th (out of 200) in 2015. The 2019 highlights were top-30 places for servicing costs and handling. Space and practicality scored pretty well too, while connectivity was mid-table. But for most other aspects, the MG3 was near the bottom of the pile.
from trade insider Quentin Willson THE MG3 is a cheap but characterful supermini, with mid-range and above models offering reasonable levels of equipment. The interior is fairly spacious, as is the boot. The MG3 also rides and handles reasonably well, with plenty of grip and direct steering. However, the 1.5-litre petrol engine feels sluggish, and needs a lot of revs to coax it up to speed.
Common faults WARRANTYWISE currently has very limited fault data for the MG3, with just a single alternator fault having been reported. This issue cost around £250 to fix.
YOUR VIEW ALICE Connery from Newcastle owns a 2015 MG3. She says: “I bought it three years ago and it’s done 32,000 miles. I chose it because I liked the design and got a lot of car for my money, but it’s also good to drive. There’s plenty of space inside and it’s well equipped. Running costs aren’t very high and reliability has generally been good – not perfect, but no worse my old Clio.”

12 Months’ Extended Warranty Price: £448.23 Prices from £37.35pm for this model with Warrantywise
Sponsored by
MOST MG3s sit in insurance group 4, while the service interval is set at 12 months or 15,000 miles. However, this is cut to 12 months or 10,000 miles for 2016 and 2017-model cars. Services alternate between minor and major, at £197 and £405, but the fourth costs £447 because fresh coolant is needed. There’s no cam belt to replace, and service plans are available through dealers; everything is detailed on the MG website. The MG3 initially came with a three-year/60,000mile warranty, which could be extended to anywhere between four years and 40/60/80/100k miles and five years and 60/80/100k miles. However, from September 2018 the standard new-car warranty was increased to seven years or 80,000 miles.

Recalls THERE has never been a recall for the MG3. This may reflect the fact none has been required, but it’s worth pointing out recalls tend to be started by manufacturers rather than the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA). The DVSA can force a recall if it believes one is urgently required, however, and makers are legally bound to inform DVSA if they identify safety defects.

£8,000 for a family car, but which one? THE MODERN CHOICE
Dear Luke, I need a reliable family car that won’t cost the earth to run. I have a budget of £8,000. What do you recommend? Rory Peters, E-mail

THE RELIABLE CHOICE
THE ECONOMICAL CHOICE
Hyundai i30
Kia Cee’d
Toyota Auris
FOR: Refined, decent infotainment, newest model here AGAINST: Limited choice available at this budget
FOR: Impressive warranty, sharp design, availability AGAINST: Dull handling, higher emissions so higher tax
FOR: Low running costs, good reliability reports AGAINST: Poor infotainment, so-so handling
THE third-generation i30 offers a similar proposition to the old Kia Cee’d (right), prioritising comfort over handling. But it’s the current-generation car, so you get better quality and an updated infotainment system. As a used buyer you’ll be able to benefit from the balance of Hyundai’s five-year warranty, and while there aren’t a huge number of current-generation i30s around for the right budget, we found a 2017 example, with 52,000 miles on the clock, priced at £8,000.
THE second-generation Kia Cee’d offers practicality, comfort, solid build quality and a broad range of engines. It was also a very popular car when new, shifting more than 73,000 units in the UK alone during its six-year production cycle – so used examples are plentiful. Another appealing aspect is that unless you buy a really early model, you’ll still be covered by Kia’s leading sevenyear, 100,000-mile warranty. We found a 2016 Cee’d, with around 43,000 miles on the clock, priced at £7,940.
THE Toyota Auris won’t stun you with its handling, or cradle you in a luxurious interior. Instead, its maker focused on offering a spacious, well built interior and reliable mechanicals, backed up by a five-year/100,000mile warranty, which still covers many used models. You can also get the Auris with a petrol-electric hybrid powertrain, although its strong residuals mean you’ll be looking at a 2014 or earlier car if you want this. We found a 62,000-mile 1.6 diesel from 2017 for £7,975.
THE Hyundai feels far more modern inside than the Kia Cee’d, and all models get air-con, front and rear electric windows, Bluetooth and a DAB radio. Find an SE Nav or Premium model and you’ll get an upgraded eight-inch infotainment system.
INSIDE, most Mk2 Cee’ds come with a decent amount of kit. Trim levels run from 1 to 4, and although we suggest you avoid the entry-level 1, stepping up to 2 gets you air-conditioning, cruise control, electric windows and parking sensors.
THE Auris’s cabin leaves a bit to be desired from an aesthetic point of view; some of the plastics feel flimsy, and the layout is a little scattered. However, it’s all tough and durable, even if Toyota’s seven-inch infotainment system is fiddly to use.
THE i30 uses the same engine line-up as the Kia Cee’d, and the 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol is our pick of the range. Being built on a newer platform than the Kia means the i30 is better to drive. There’s plenty of grip and the ride is pretty comfortable, although the steering lacks feedback.
WHILE the Mk2 Kia Cee’d is perfectly agreeable to drive, it’s not particularly engaging. With a comfortable ride and light (some may feel over-assisted) power steering, it’s very good around town. We suggest going for the 118bhp 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol, because it offers the best blend of performance and economy.
AS with its rivals, the Auris errs on the side of predictability rather than involvement. It’s definitely economical, though; the 1.6-litre diesel returns a claimed 67mpg, although we suggest you opt for the smooth and efficient 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine, which produces 114bhp and returns 58.9mpg.

0-60mph
PERFORMANCE: This is the manufacturer’s claimed acceleration time for a car, and is measured from 0-60mph or 0-62mph (0-100kph), in seconds. ECONOMY AND EMISSIONS: The combined economy and emissions figures in miles per gallon and grams per kilometre of CO2. Figures are the best ones achieved in the latest WLTP tests, but are unlikely to be representative of actual efficiency in everyday driving.
ROAD TAX: When a car is first registered, its first year’s road tax is included in the price. This is emissions-based, and adds anything from zero on electric cars to £2,070 for vehicles emitting over 255g/km of CO2. After 12 months, it’s the owner’s responsibility to tax their vehicle, and the rate depends on the fuel used:

FORMULA 1 is go for 2020, with the majority of teams having taken the wraps off their new cars ahead of testing getting under way at the Circuit de Catalunya in Barcelona on Wednesday morning. All teams except Alpha Tauri, Racing Point and Williams had revealed their cars by Friday evening, with no major design surprises to note. This was largely expected, given 2020 is the last year of the current tech rules cycle before a comprehensive overhaul for 2021. All teams will therefore have to strike a delicate balance between developing their 2020 cars during the season and ensuring they’re in the best position for 2021. The established order of Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull at the top is not expected to shift significantly during the year. Following three days this week, there’ll be a further three days of running in Spain next week before the season kicks off in Melbourne, Australia, on 15 March. At least one of 2020’s planned races is off, though, with the Chinese Grand Prix having been formally postponed due to the coronavirus outbreak. Organisers says they will try to find an alternative date later in the year.
“Teams have to strike a balance between 2020 and 2021 development work during the season”
Ferrari SF1000
Mercedes W11
REIGNING champion team Mercedes once again ran its new challenger behind closed doors at Silverstone for its first appearance, with Valtteri Bottas and Lewis Hamilton turning the first laps on Valentine’s Day. Sporting new sponsorship from chemicals company INEOS, the new W11 builds on the design of last year’s W10 and is the car with which Mercedes hopes to score a seventh consecutive constructor’s championship. Technical director James Allison said the team would not be repeating 2019’s strategy, when it surprised everyone by bringing a heavily revised car design to the second week of pre-season testing.

● Majority of 2020 grid unveiled ● First of two three-day tests in Barcelona gets under way Wednesday
Red Bull RB16
NAMED to celebrate Ferrari’s 1,000th race start (which will take place during the 2020 season), the SF1000 (right) was revealed at a glitzy launch ceremony held in a theatre in the Italian town of Reggio Emilia, near Maranello. Boss Mattia Bintto said the car was “as extreme an evolution as possible” of last year’s SF90 machine.
MAX Verstappen’s and Alex Albon’s 2020 challenger made its debut with shakedown laps around Silverstone on Thursday. Team boss Christian Horner promised further steps had been made on both the chassis and Honda engine sides, as the team looks to mount a full championship challenge from the off in 2020.
McLaren MCL35
Renault R.S. 20
Alfa Romeo C39
Haas VF-20
McLAREN’s MCL35 (right) was revealed to the media at the team’s Woking head office in Surrey last Thursday. This is the first of the team’s cars to benefit from the input of ex-Toro Rosso technical director James Key, and 2020 will also be the first full season for new team principal Andreas Seidl, formerly of Porsche’s LMP1 squad.
HAVING initially promised a pit lane reveal ahead of testing in Barcelona, Alfa Romeo released shots of its C39 (right) being shaken down at Ferrari’s Fiorano test track in a temporary livery with Kimi Raikkonen at the wheel. The Finn will be joined by Italian Antonio Giovinazzi this season, with Robert Kubica as test driver.

RENAULT elected not to reveal its 2020 contender at the launch event it held in Paris last week, instead showing a few close-up detail renderings. Team boss Cyril Abiteboul told media that the car would not come together until the last minute before testing begins this week, in order to optimise the build process.
HAAS was first out of the gates with its 2020 car, revealing computer renderings of its VF-20 showcasing a return to its original red, white and black colours after last season’s Rich Energy sponsorship fiasco. Having finished fifth in 2018, Haas slumped badly in 2019 and will be looking for a big return to form this time around.

THAT’S it, the referee’s made his decision, the HS2 game is over, and it’s time to accept this skinny rail road will be built – at a cost of £106billion. Never mind that the ref (Boris Johnson) won’t be Prime Minister, and may not even be alive by the time the monster project is completed at a total cost that’ll inevitably exceed that current estimate; think nearer £150bn-£200bn, I reckon. Significantly, in the very week Bo Jo formally gave it his controversial nod of approval, the Chancellor and former Transport Secretary (who knows a thing or two about rip-off railways!) walked out on his job at HM Treasury. An angry, HS2-related resignation by Sajid Javid? Well, the bloated project can’t have helped. Who foots the £100-£200billion bill for this railway, which won’t even run 24/7, never mind Motoring’s most outspoken 365 days a year? Ultimately, it’s the general public and opinionated columnist sounds off – everyone from employees who pay income tax, National Insurance and VAT, to pensioners paying painful taxes as they draw their modest incomes. The skinny £106bn Ironically, these are the same salt-of-the-earth folk HS2 project needs who’ll be unable to use HS2 trains because fares will almost certainly be exorbitantly high. Sure, they’ll be to be built wider, fine for business types and politicians with generous then reclassified as a expense accounts (ie other people’s money), but the 24-hour multi-vehicle overwhelming majority of Brits cannot each pay £1 to £2 per mile when sitting or standing on a train with transport corridor HS status. Especially when the all-in cost per mile figure for a driver travelling alone in a mid-to-large car is about 50 pence per mile – or, alternatively, just 10 pence per person per mile when there are four passengers on board. Put another way; when commuting early in the morning or late afternoon, five people travelling in a medium-sized car each pay 90-180 per cent less than they will via HS2. No doubt about it; trains are for the minority, cars for the overwhelming majority. With this in mind, the skinny £106bn HS2 project needs to be built a tad wider, then reclassified as a 24/7/365 multi-vehicle transport corridor rather than a limited-hours railway line. The construction workers, equipment, vehicles, access roads, building materials, cabling/electrical supplies et al are already on site, or soon will be. Therefore it’ll be comparatively inexpensive to flank each side of the railway with driving lanes (including hard shoulders) for cars, vans and trucks. Who pays? We, the circa 40 million vehicle owners and drivers do – via the £60billion we hand over every year to HM Treasury in road-user taxation. The undeniable, under-reported truth is this: even after building the occasional new road and ‘maintaining’ the existing, crumbling network, the UK Government makes a fat annual profit from drivers and their lucrative road-user taxes. Yet, at the same time, it loses countless billions yearly courtesy of the railways and the people who ride them. So car drivers are wholly unsubsidised and massively profitable for The Treasury, while rail passengers are massively subsidised and wholly unprofitable. Yet we get handed back next to nowt, while they get a new, £100bn-plus railway. Work that one out, if you dare.
