OF ALL the success stories that have rolled out of Land Rover’s HQ in recent years, the new Defender has to be the greatest of the lot. It’s not only a fantastic piece of industrial design and a hugely impressive example of British engineering, early signs are that the plant in Slovakia is building them brilliantly, too. So it’s no surprise that – especially in times of parts shortages – Land Rover cannot build them fast enough. The queue for new Defenders goes around the block a few times, while Land Rover and its dealers are rubbing their hands with glee due to healthy margins on the car. We’ve no doubt that the latest version, the three-row Defender 130, will be a sales success, too. Although I have to admit to spluttering when a colleague told me it’s 100mm longer than a long-wheelbase Range Rover, can cost well over £100,000 and weighs 2.5 tonnes. It’s a big car in terms of size and financial impact. We were always told that there would be a Defender family, and there are even more offspring on their way. JLR’s Special Vehicle Operations division hasn’t launched a Defender yet, so expect hot SVR and extreme off-road SVX versions. Then there’s the muchrumoured pick-up, which could be another moneyspinner, especially in the truck-crazy US. Whether the Defender 130 is just a bit too big for UK tastes is yet to be seen (don’t forget you can already buy the Defender 110 with seven seats over three rows). But as someone who’s lucky enough to have one on his drive at the moment, I can report that it is every bit as brilliant to live with as you might expect – it’s a very clever car. That queue means buying one is the biggest problem – but does anything else out there have the Defender’s appeal? Not really. Which is why the used market for them has also gone crazy. You’ll struggle to find one for less than it cost new. The only sad thing about the Defender’s success? Anyone remember the Discovery? No, me neither.

● Land Rover extends popular SUV to create an eight-seater ● Different configurations are available, prices from £73,895 John McIlroy

John_McIlroy@autovia.co.uk @johnmcilroy

LAND ROVER has been enjoying huge sales success with the Defender since it landed in dealerships last year. Now the British brand will be hoping to find even more customers with the biggest version of the off-roader to date: the 130. The 130 takes the already-substantial 110 edition of the Defender and adds an extra 340mm beyond the B-pillars, making it 5,358mm long – that’s more than 10cm longer than the seven-seat version of the latest Range Rover. Land Rover claims that this extended rear overhang doesn’t impact on the Defender’s off-road ability; it retains approach and departure angles of 37.5 degrees and 28.5 degrees respectively, and has a maximum wading depth of 900mm. But the longer body frees up so much additional space in the cabin that engineers have been able to install a third seat in the last row. That means there is now the possibility of a twothree-three seating layout, making the car an eight-seater and taking it beyond the capacity of the seven-seat 110. Land Rover clearly believes the additional capacity will be a key selling point; the car will be an eight-seater by default, and the removal of the third row to make it a five-seater will be offered as a no-cost option. The Defender 130 will be available with a choice of three powertrains in the UK – customers here miss out on the leaner, less powerful diesel, while there’s no plug-in hybrid version either. The petrol range starts with the P300, a 3.0-litre straight-six mild-hybrid petrol producing 296bhp and 470Nm of torque. It’s capable of 0-60mph in 7.5 seconds, and returns between 23mpg and 24.8mpg, depending on equipment and trim level, for CO2 emissions between 259g/km and 280g/km. The range-topper (for now, at least) is the P400, with a more powerful 395bhp version of the same motor that’s capable of 0-60mph in 6.3 seconds. There’s a single diesel offered at launch: the D300, with 296bhp and 650Nm – enough for 0-60mph in 7.1 seconds. It emits 216g/km of CO2 and manages 34.4mpg on the WLTP combined cycle. Inside, the Defender 130 gets the larger 11.4-inch Pivi Pro touchscreen

infotainment system that was introduced on the higher-end 90 and 110 V8 models, as well as standard air purification. Other features include Smart Voice Guidance, which reduces the amount of instructions required in familiar surroundings, and what3words location functionality. There’s also the option for the third row of seats to be heated, and those in the sixth, seventh and eighth seats also get padded armrests and USB-C charging ports. Up to five of the eight seats (the outer seats in the second and third rows, along with the front passenger seat) can feature Isofix mounting points. The extra rear overhang gives the Defender 130 some impressive-looking outright practicality figures. Eight-seat versions have 389 litres of boot space with all three rows in place, and this extends to almost 2,300 litres with the second and third rows folded into the floor. The ultimate capacity is slightly higher in the five-seat version, which can carry up to 2,516 litres. There will be four trim levels – SE, HSE, X-Dynamic and X – along with a First Edition that comes in a choice of three themes curated by Land Rover’s design team. The existing range of exterior accessories – including the Explorer, Adventure, Country and Urban packs – will be offered on the 130, just as they are on the 90 and 110. The range will start with the P300 X-Dynamic SE at £73,895, but even without the almost-inevitable V8 engine option, the 130’s line-up breaches the £100k mark. A fully laden P400 X will cost £100,645, overlapping the (five-seat) Range Rover line-up by a few thousand pounds.

NEWS BMW X1 and iX1 “The X1’s styling builds on the conventional SUV treatment established by the Mk2 model”

Leaner BMW X1 adds plug John McIlroy

John_McIlroy@autovia.co.uk @johnmcilroy

BMW is updating some of its bestselling models in 2022. The 3 Series was treated to an overhaul only a few weeks ago (Issue 1,729) and now the new X1 small SUV has arrived with powertrain upgrades and an all-electric edition. The third-generation X1 has grown slightly, at 4,500mm long (up 53mm) and 1,845mm wide (a gain of 24mm). The wheelbase increase is a more modest 22mm and the car continues to sit on UKL2, the same modular architecture that underpins the 1 Series and a number of MINIs. The car’s exterior styling builds on the more conventional SUV treatment established by the Mk2, following the original X1, which was more of a crossover. Inside, the cabin is dominated by BMW’s latest curved display, which uses a 10.25inch infotainment panel and a 10.7-inch digital dash, both with BMW’s latest OS 8 software. Sliding rear seats (standard on most versions) will allow users to prioritise

legroom or boot capacity; as standard the load bay measures 540 litres, rising to 1,600 litres with the seats folded. PHEV and EV models take a hit in this area, with measurements of 490 and 1,495 litres. The range now starts with the non-hybrid, front-wheel-drive sDrive18d diesel, which has CO2 emissions between 129g/km and 144g/km. Add xDrive four-wheel drive, and you’ll get a 48-volt hybrid set-up that incorporates a small electric motor. The petrol xDrive23i has 215bhp, enough for a 0-62mph time of 7.1 seconds, and emits between 146g/km and 162g/km of CO2. The xDrive23d, meanwhile, has 194bhp and 400Nm of torque, providing a 0-62mph time of 7.4 seconds. Its CO2 emissions are rated between 125g/km and 140g/km. BMW will offer the X1 with a choice of plug-in powertrains, although they won’t be available until a month after the rest of the range arrives in October. Both versions

The xDrive30e beefs up the petrol engine and electric motor for 322bhp combined (torque remains the same).

THE biggest single departure for the new X1 is the arrival of the pure-electric edition, badged iX1 xDrive30e, which is due around the same time as the PHEVs. The new EV features a pair of electric motors – one on each axle – which have a maximum combined output of 308bhp and 494Nm of torque, although this power figure is achieved on temporary boost. Either way, the iX1 is capable of 0-62mph in 5.7 seconds, and it can reach a top speed of 112mph. BMW claims the car will be able to deliver up to 272 miles of range on the WLTP test cycle, and says it will support charging rates of up to 130kW. The battery can also be pre-heated manually, allowing users to prepare their car and maximise the possible charging rates at public points. The iX1 looks all but identical to its combustionengined siblings, with only slight aerodynamic tweaks to increase its efficiency (its drag coefficient is 0.26Cd) and BMW’s usual blue colour accents to highlight the zero-emissions powertrain.

INTERIOR Rear seats slide to create more legroom or boot space, with a maximum of 1,600 litres on offer in non-plug-in models into xLine and xLine Premier Pro, and M Sport and M Sport Premier Pro. Even basic versions get 17-inch alloys, LED headlights, a powered tailgate, heated seats, front and rear parking sensors plus a rear-view camera. We’ve yet to see a full price list, but an X1 xDrive23i in Sport Premier trim will cost from £35,130, and the conventional range will top out at £46,660 for an xDrive23d M Sport Premier Pro. Prices for the plug-in versions are due after the summer.

“PEOPLE using our roads every day have the right to feel secure and be kept safe. They deserve dedicated, professional, well trained police officers, being and it is frustrating to witness them become let down by roads policing that has virtually invisible,” says one of Britain’s most experienced traffic cops. Tim Rogers enrolled as a police officer as a in 1995, spending most of his career roadtraffic cop – including 10 years as a death investigator. He’s now the Police and Federation’s national driver training Auto pursuits lead, and he opened up to Express about the dire state of UK roads to policing following our exposé of cuts traffic officer numbers and the rise of policing by citizen-supplied dash-cam footage (Issue 1,710, top right). – “Back in 2009, West Midlands Police small which is my force – had 20 different out traffic divisions, and we’d be putting us. around 30 cars every day,” Rogers told “Then you think about what we’d have inside those cars in terms of the training, as skill and ability needed to be classed a traffic officer able to deal with myriad

Some funding could also be ringfenced body. for traffic policing under an independent well. But there’s resistance to the idea as supplies The Metropolitan Police, for example, City and hundreds of officers to police London them from Heathrow Airports, with funding for lead the airport operators. Such arrangements to hesitancy among forces for any shake-ups.

“The number of dedicated roads policing officers has declined, while their responsibilities for supporting general policing have increased. In some cases, resources have been reduced without any understanding of demand.” “Between 2013 and 2019, the expenditure for roads policing has reduced by about 34 per cent in real terms, which is approximately £120million.” “At the time of our inspection one force’s staffing was 20 per cent below the minimum required level. As a result, roads-policing patrols stopped at 2am.” “One supervisor told us officers in his roads-policing unit weren’t experienced or trained in all required skills.”

Report quotes “At times, one officer provided the total roads-policing response for an entire county.” “We found roads-policing officers whose training was so inadequate they couldn’t identify and prosecute offences relating to heavy-goods vehicles. A group of less experienced officers joked they ‘only stop vehicles we can see over’.” “In one force, a lack of support left the roads-policing team relying on social media and their personal mobile phones to share intelligence.” “Officers in some forces spent only 20 per cent of their time on roads-policing duties. We were

told that ‘no-one thanks you for being tied up with a drink-drive prisoner for two hours’.” “Forces were unable to demonstrate that enforcement activity was based of on a comprehensive understanding the causes of deaths and serious injury on the roads in their area.” “One partner agency told us that they regularly provide a force with road safety data, but they suspected that the force ‘did nothing with it’.” “There is no accredited national training programme for roads policing officers. As a result, there is inconsistency in how, when, and to what level officers are trained. The continued professional development of officers is inconsistent and insufficient.”

have been collecting data on the types of owner. Interestingly, Nottinghamshire Police recorded more private e-scooter injuries compared with those in rental schemes, which highlights the need to properly regulate e-scooter specifications before allowing them on our roads,” he added. RAC head of roads policy Nicholas Lyes said: “Our research suggests there is a huge level of concern among drivers about the standard of driving on our roads. “We urge the Government to consider re-introducing road safety targets,” he added. “They should also look at whether the long-term decline in full-time road traffic police officers has led to a worsening in driver behaviour and an increase in casualties as a result.”

Figures for England and Wales. Source:

THERE were 1,560 fatalities on Britain’s roads in 2021, according to provisional official Government statistics released last week, which is a seven per cent increase on the number recorded the previous year. A drastic reduction in traffic levels due to Covid lockdowns saw road casualty rates fall enormously in 2020, but as restrictions relaxed and traffic returned to the roads, figures show that death and injury rates also began to climb again. Jack Cousens, who leads on roads policy for the AA, says the organisation had been hoping that the reduction in road injuries could be sustained for longer. “Sadly that wasn’t the case,” he said. “The one glimmer of hope is that the total number of casualties last year remains lower than pre-pandemic levels, so we need that to be the turning point in order to make our roads as safe as possible.” A rise in the number of people cycling over the past two years was accompanied by a spike in fatalities amongst cyclists in 2020, yet that figure dropped by a fifth in 2021. But e-scooters continue to cause problems, and Cousens said there are still lessons to be learned about the incidents e-scooters are involved in, and the injuries they cause. “While the number of collisions increased significantly from 2020, initial reporting shows that riders are more likely to hurt themselves rather than others,” he said. While e-scooters are legal in only a few trial schemes, evidence suggests their users have fewer incidents than illegal riders. “Despite the fact e-scooters are only legal through rental schemes, some police forces

Caterham’s racecar for the road on sale now CATERHAM has launched a new ‘trackfocused’ model called the 420 Cup (above) – a road-going version of the Seven UK Championship racer. Its 2.0-litre Ford Duratec engine produces 210bhp and 203Nm of torque, and is linked to a six-speed sequential gearbox. The wheels are shod in Avon ZZR Extreme rubber, fully adjustable Bilstein dampers are fitted all round, and the car has had a motorsport-inspired makeover. Production starts in 2023, but it’s on sale now, from £54,990.

MASERATI has followed up its MC20 coupé by unveiling a convertible version of the mid-engined supercar. It’s called the MC20 Cielo, and takes it name from the Italian word for ‘sky’. The Cielo has a large, retractable glass roof panel that takes 12 seconds to raise or lower electrically at speeds up to 30mph. Featuring Polymer-Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC) technology, the panel can either be fully opaque or fully transparent, and instantly switch between the two at the touch of a button. Fitting the roof mechanism and some extra structural bracing adds 65kg to the coupé’s 1,500kg kerbweight, but Maserati’s head of global product planning, Francesco Tonon, said the brand has “achieved the same level of performance as the coupé”. This means the 621bhp 3.0-litre twin-turbo ‘Nettuno’ V6 engine will propel the MC20 Cielo from 0-62mph in less than three seconds. The MC20 Cielo also ushers in tweaks for the 2023 model year, with a new digital drive mode selector and other small trim and equipment tweaks inside. On sale now, the MC20 Cielo carries a price premium of 30,000 Euros (around £25,600) over the £190,275 coupé. Deliveries begin at the end of the year.

Smart #1

Yousuf_Ashraf@autovia.co.uk @ashrafoncars

WE’VE been here before, to a point. The Smart brand is launching a vehicle that’s not a super-compact city car, but this time, the new, all-electric #1 crossover hopes to spread the rebooted brand’s wings a little further than the ForFour that came before it. And we’ve been for a ride in a prototype. The #1 has a similar footprint to the MINI Countryman. It’s a bigger car than pictures might suggest, the benefits of which are apparent when you climb aboard. Despite a tall, Mercedes-like centre console that cocoons the front occupants, the cabin is spacious and accommodating, with plenty of rear legroom and a 411-litre boot. Smart claims that there’s as much room in here as you’ll find in a Mercedes E-Class, and while we can’t verify that without putting the two side by side, the #1 is a very spacious car for its size. Some of the trim materials are still being finalised, but perceived quality is high, too. The leather-trimmed facia is nicely padded and the swooping dashboard looks thoroughly modern. The #1 is the first model to use the new Geely-developed SEA platform, and it sets the trajectory of future electric Smarts. It will initially be available with a rear-mounted 268bhp electric motor and a 66kWh battery offering a range of 273 miles. The car’s 400V architecture enables 150kW rapid charging, too, with a 10-80 per cent charge taking around half an hour. The road was wet during our passenger ride and our pre-production test car had a windscreen seal issue, so we’ll reserve judgement on overall refinement until we get behind the wheel of the #1 in production

Smart #1 is similar in size to MINI Countryman, while EV drive boosts interior space

form. Even so, the car does feel solid and relatively well isolated at town speeds, with smooth, near-silent running typical of an EV. One or two foibles emerge when picking up speed. The car’s suspension calibration has yet to be signed off, but as it stands, the #1 struggles to contain all of its 1,820kg over undulating roads. A quick sequence of bumps can send the car jostling around, and we’re hoping that the final production car is more settled. Sharper imperfections are absorbed fairly well, though, and the #1 rounds off the worst jolts. Given that the battery pack is contained within the floor, the #1 doesn’t roll as much as you might expect in faster corners. You

are conscious of the car’s weight as the chassis fidgets over mid-corner bumps, but it feels mostly secure and stable from the passenger seat. According to Smart’s engineers, the #1’s chassis is surprisingly adjustable with the ESP system slackened off, which bodes well for the rumoured dual-motor Brabus version. With 342Nm of torque on tap, the electric motor is able to mask the car’s bulk, and acceleration is punchy, if not quite hairraising. There’s plenty of performance for most situations, but power begins to tail off when the battery charge has depleted – below 30 per cent in this case – and top speed is limited to 112mph.

Hottest Golf marks 20 years of R TO commemorate 20 years of its R performance sub-brand, Volkswagen has unveiled a Golf R ‘20 Years edition’.

It features a new ‘Emotion Start’ system that flares the revs to 2,500rpm on start up. While the mechanicals are fundamentally the same as the Performance pack-equipped Golf R, the engine and seven-speed dualclutch automatic gearbox have been recalibrated, with the latter offering more aggressive manual shifts in the sportier driving modes. The turbo is preloaded under part-throttle to reduce lag. The powertrain tweaks give a marginal improvement in the Golf R’s 0-62mph time,

‘EVs offer value despite hike in electricity prices’ Sign of times as Ford ‘geofences’ limits

INTERIOR

Cabin layout is modern and features plenty of high-grade materials

RAC data shows EVs are cheaper to fuel than ICE cars Chris Rosamond

Chris_Rosamond@autovia.co.uk

THE cost of charging an electric vehicle (EV) has risen by 21 per cent since September, with the average electricity price now at 44.55p per kWh. That equates to an increase of 7.81p per kWh since last summer, meaning it now costs around £22.81 to charge the 64kWh battery of a typical EV to the recommended 80 per cent, a rise of more than £4. To put that into perspective, over the same period of time the cost of an 80 per cent fill for an average family car with a 55-litre tank has risen by £14.54, meaning petrol-car drivers today have to fork out £74.21. Analysis by the RAC shows that on average it now costs 10p per mile to run an EV kept topped up by public rapid charging, an increase of 2p per mile from last summer. So despite rising electricity prices, EV drivers are still onto a winner when it comes to energy costs; a comparable petrol car now costs 19p per mile to fill up, while diesel fuel costs are even higher, at 21p per mile. The RAC has long tracked average UK fuel prices, but will now also monitor public rapid-charging prices to reflect the increasing take-up of EVs by new-car buyers. Simon Williams, the RAC’s EV spokesman, said: “Just as the price that drivers of petrol and diesel cars pay to fill up at the pumps is driven by fluctuations in the world oil price, those in EVs are affected by gas and electricity prices. “But while electric car drivers may not be immune from the rocketing price of wholesale energy, most notably gas, which dictates the cost of electricity, there’s no doubting that charging an EV still represents excellent value for money compared with filling up a petrol or diesel car. “Unsurprisingly, our analysis shows that the quickest places to charge are also the most expensive, with ultrarapid chargers costing on average 14 per cent more to use than rapid chargers. For drivers in a hurry, though, or travelling a long distance, paying this premium might well be worth it, with the very fastest chargers capable of almost completely replenishing an electric car’s battery in a matter of minutes.”

“There’s no doubting that charging an EV still represents excellent value for money”

FORD is trialing geofencing technology in an effort to make speed limit signs obsolete. By creating a digital geographical boundary between different zones (above), the technology will see vehicles slow down automatically when approaching an area with a lower limit. This could allow speed limit signs to be removed, making streets more aesthetically pleasing and dealing with the issues of signs being obscured by branches or badly placed.

Third London ULEZ expansion proposed A CONSULTATION has been launched on further expansion for the London Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) to cover the whole of Greater London from 29 August 2023. The ULEZ currently covers all streets within London’s North and South Circular roads. If the expansion goes ahead, the AA estimates that around a third of car owners in the new area would be priced off the road, despite London Mayor Sadiq Khan promising that a scrappage scheme would be launched at the same time.

New Lexus RX sets sights ● Fresh face for new Mk5 model ● Hybrid-only engine range James Brodie

James_Brodie@autovia.co.uk @JPBrods

THE FIFTH-GENERATION Lexus RX has been revealed, with the firm updating its BMW X5 and Mercedes GLE rival once again with hybrid-only power in Europe. It’s exactly the same length as the old RX, at 4,890mm long, but moving to the new GA-K platform has allowed the wheelbase to grow by 60mm. Wider front and rear tracks are joined by a shorter rear overhang, too, giving the new car a somewhat different stance to the old model. New touches include the redesigned spindle grille and headlights, plus a full-width taillight bar. Lexus has redesigned the RX’s cabin around the same theme used in the smaller NX. The new 14-inch central touchscreen comes with built-in navigation featuring live traffic data, plus wireless Apple CarPlay, along with wired Android Auto connectivity. The RX is still a five-seater, and thanks to its redesigned seats, improved packaging and a longer wheelbase, Lexus claims much better space inside, but there’s been no confirmation that the seven-seat RX L version will return. The RX’s engine range slims down to just two four-cylinder units, with no six-cylinder option. Kicking things off is the RX 350h, which mates a 2.5-litre petrol engine to a compact battery and electric motor system. Total power is 242bhp with 335Nm torque. Lexus claims 42.2mpg and CO2 emissions from 143g/km, while drive goes to the front wheels via an eCVT transmission. The plug-in hybrid RX 450h+ also makes use of an eCVT transmission and the same 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine, but it is equipped with an additional electric motor driving the rear axle, and an 18.1kWh battery under the floor. The combined total output stands at 302bhp and 572Nm, while CO2 emissions from 24g/km and fuel consumption of up to

Total output stands at 366bhp and 645Nm, giving a 0-62mph time of 5.9 seconds. Order books for the new RX are open now, but final prices for the car have yet to be confirmed, although the line-up shouldn’t start too far from the £56,000 asking price of the current 450h model.

INSIDESTORY Tackling the motoring issues that matter

Tristan Shale-Hester

tristan_shale-hester@autovia.co.uk @tristan_shale

FOR many enthusiasts, the idea of owning a classic car is highly appealing, but the reality can be very different. While classics are often stunningly beautiful to look at and feel more special than modern models, running a vehicle that’s several decades old can prove to be an expensive and time-consuming challenge. What’s more, it’s no secret that petrol-powered cars are on the way out. With the UK’s 2030 ban on the sale of new conventional internal combustion-engined models fast-approaching, filling a vehicle with petrol – as well as the necessary additives to make it compatible with modern fuel – may well become pricier and more difficult for owners of classic cars. One straightforward solution is being offered by manufacturers and third party firms alike, however: to futureproof classic cars by ripping out their petrol engines and installing electric motors in their place. To find out how this works and what the end result is like, we went to Oxfordshire to visit a firm called Electrogenic, which is leading the way in classic-car conversions. Electrogenic was founded in 2018 by Steve Drummond and Ian Newstead. Steve is a mechanical engineer whose background is in the energy industry, through which he became an advocate of renewable energy. For him, converting classics to electric power is a way to help the car industry go green. Ian began his career as an RAF radar technician, before switching to cars when he got a job with racing team Norman Abbott Engineering. He opened his own garage in 1995, specialising in the restoration of classic air-cooled Volkswagens and Porsches. The idea to start working on EVs came from Ian’s daughter, he told us. “I was working on a car, but I suffer badly from allergies and one of the worst things for me is unburnt fuel; it makes my eyes itch and run,” Ian explained. “My daughter looked at me as if I was a monster and said: ‘Dad, you’ve got to stop doing this. Why not work on electric cars instead?’” Ian and Steve already knew each other through the motor trade and, when discussing a van the two were haggling over, Ian suggested that it would be better with an electric motor rather than its existing engine. “We did some research, including a trip to California,” Steve told us. “We decided that, for the first time ever, it

was possible to make an electric car worth owning. Four years later, here we are.” Electrogenic will now take any car and convert it from petrol or diesel power to electric, taking into account whatever specifications the customer desires. The process is fully reversible, too, but if you do change your mind, you’ll have to find another firm to restore the original motor, because Electrogenic doesn’t undo its own work. “We don’t want to lose these cars,” Ian told us. “The last thing we want is to see them disappear or end up in museums. We want to see them still driving on the road and this enables them to do that.” It’s not just about futureproofing, though, as Steve explained: “Most sixties and seventies cars are actually quite difficult and unpleasant to drive. They’re slow, they struggle to pull out at junctions, et cetera. “If you make these cars able to keep up with modern traffic, though, they become something that’s fun to drive instead of something that’s a bit scary.” Steve and Ian weren’t content to let us take their word for this, they wanted us to try it out for ourselves. So, we headed down the road from Electrogenic’s Kidlington headquarters to the test track at Bicester Heritage, where we were handed the keys to a finished customer car. The model in question was a 1964 Porsche 356 C. Originally, this rear-engined coupé had come with a 1.6-litre flat-four petrol engine, producing around 94bhp, coupled to a four-speed manual gearbox. This enabled 0-60mph in 10.3 seconds and a top speed of 115mph. In a move that may outrage purists, though, Electrogenic changed nearly all of these details. In the car we tried, there

INSIDE STORY Electrifying classic cars

“If you want the looks without the hassle, then it’s hard to fault Electrogenic’s work” was no trace of the 1.6-litre engine. In its place, we found a Netgain Hyper9HV air-cooled electric motor, which runs at 144V and draws power from a 36kWh battery. As a result, the Electrogenic 356 C makes 107bhp and 0-60mph only takes around seven seconds. What’s more, the top speed is increased to 120mph and there’s an impressive 140 miles of range, provided the car is cruising rather than being driven on the limit. The 356 can also be fully recharged in just under two and a half hours. There’s one key original feature that’s been left in the car, however, that separates this electric vehicle from anything you can buy from a modern manufacturer’s showroom: that four-speed manual gearbox we mentioned is still in place, coupled with a new lightweight clutch. The feeling is an odd one. It’s much easier to change gear in the Electrogenic 356 than it is in an unaltered classic car, but the lightness of the clutch pedal and gearlever, combined with the lack of an exhaust note, is quite eerie and takes some getting used to. It does add some enjoyment to the EV driving experience, though, and while the 356 is no Tesla Model S or Porsche Taycan, there’s still a decent punch of acceleration when you hit the throttle. It’s fair to say this conversion wouldn’t be a viable option for classic-car owners wanting to preserve the sound and feel of their cars, but if you want the looks without the hassle, then it’s hard to fault Electrogenic’s work. One significant barrier is price, though. You’ll need to provide a donor car – that’s a cost of around £100,000 for a 356 C depending on condition – and then pay Electrogenic for the conversion. The firm has a range of options depending on customer demands, but the owner of the 356 we tested had paid somewhere in the region of £40,000. Explaining the different options Electrogenic offers, Steve said: “The first question is do you want to drive it using a gearbox or not? A lot of our customers, like the owner of the 356, like to have an active driving experience. It’s an old car and they want to drive it in a manner similar to how it was driven originally, hence a motor with a gearbox. “The other thing is how many batteries to put in. The conversation we generally have with customers is don’t try

and fill the car up with batteries because you will change the way it handles. It’s much better to ease back on the number of batteries and have a slightly lower range.” Electrogenic has worked its magic on more than 20 customer cars to date. Its portfolio includes everything from a Jaguar E-Type and Citroen DS to Land Rover Defenders and Volkswagen Type 2 camper vans. Steve and Ian are also

looking into how Electrogenic might offer kits, which can be used for the low-cost conversion of agricultural vehicles; the target price would be less than £25,000. The pair is also interested in providing the firm’s services directly to low-volume car manufacturers and restomodders. But whatever happens, it sounds as though Electrogenic is a company with an electrifying future ahead.

IT has a new face and name, but in many ways the Toyota GR86 is a known quantity. The bodyshell is largely carried over from the outgoing GT86, albeit with some modifications, and the basic suspension set-up is much the same, too. It’s also still arguably more a Subaru than a Toyota, since it shares most of its parts with the BRZ; once again it uses a Subaru flat-four engine, and is built in a Subaru-owned factory. Such is the way with making a sports car now; given the low production volumes involved, you can’t hurl too much money at developing these vehicles. But in all the ways that matter for a sports car, the GR86 has been improved – most notably under the bonnet. This new car sticks with a naturally aspirated engine, but it’s a larger one than in the car it replaces. Displacement is now up to 2.4 litres from 2.0, providing a useful uplift in power to give 231bhp. There’s 250Nm of torque, 45Nm more than before, but what’s arguably more important is where it arrives – from 3,700rpm, instead of 6,600 in the GT86. There is still a torque dip, but it’s much shallower. The body has been comprehensively stiffened, with additional structural bonding and more widespread use of high-tensile steel. The suspension components have been thoroughly upgraded, too, with the intention of compensating for the increase in power without taking things in too much of a hardcore direction. The centre of gravity is now 10mm lower, and the body’s torsional rigidity is up by 50 per cent. Famously, the GT86

The GR86 is only going to be on sale for two years due to incoming EU regs that will impact NCAP crash testing, so if you want one, you’ll need to sign up to a waiting list and cross your fingers for cancellations, or hold out for used examples to arrive on the market. From behind the wheel, the GR86 feels familiar, and while it’s still not the plushest sports car, Toyota’s mild cabin alterations go a long way to adding a premium touch.

during our drive. While that’s disappointing, we’re more interested in the way the GR86 goes, which is very well. Compared with modern turbocharged sports cars, the GR86 is short on muscle, but it offers all the performance you could ever need for road driving. The old car felt sluggish at times, but there’s a little more urgency to the GR86 at full throttle. The engine still needs to be worked hard, but it also pulls well at lower revs. For everyday driving it’s more flexible, while on a good bit of road you can leave it in third gear for the sort of corner that used to require second in the GT86. Not that downshifting is a chore; far from it. There are still more satisfying changes in the dwindling number of manualequipped new cars available, but the GR86’s six-speed transmission – carried over from the GT86 – offers a short, reasonably accurate throw. There is an automatic version we haven’t tried, but few buyers bother with it, and based on our experience of the GT86 auto, it’s worth avoiding. In corners is where the GR86 really shines. There’s heaps of front-end bite, and stacks of communication from the chassis; it always lets you know how much grip there is. Step over the line and the GR86 will gleefully slide without ever feeling intimidating, even without turning the traction control off fully. Track mode, which partially dials back the

electronic aids, offers a great halfway house, with a tailhappy attitude backed up by a safety net that never feels like it’s killing the fun. The steering is matched perfectly to the chassis – fast, well weighted and very predictable. Even with the tweaks, the chassis remains fairly soft, so there is a reasonable degree of body roll. But that’s in keeping with the car’s character – it was never supposed to be firm and uncompromising. The GR86 is a car that doesn’t take itself too seriously, and this is where it has the edge over more expensive, more powerful and more complex rivals. They’re faster, but more fun? Doubtful. You get a sense of joy driving the GR86, with its playful nature and a sense that it won’t bite if you do the wrong thing.

Verdict WITH the GR86, Toyota has all but perfected the already enjoyable sports car that was the GT86, while keeping true to that car’s values. Technology updates have helped its case as an everyday car, but its driving dynamics and driver appeal are still the real attractions. The only trouble? Getting one is easier said than done, because the UK’s allocation has already been sold, and regulation changes mean the GR86 won’t be on sale for long.

RIVALS What it needs to beat MAZDA MX-5 RF

AUDI TT COUPE

PORSCHE CAYMAN (used)

THE MX-5 is arguably the GR86’s closest rival. It’s compact, light, powered by a naturally aspirated engine and is affordable (prices start from £25,725), but it’s the pricier £33,960 2.0 GT Sport Tech in RF guise that’s closer in concept to the GR86. Even then, the Mazda is down on power, at 181bhp, and with a folding hard top, it’s less focused, even if it does add another dimension to the driving experience that’s not available in the GR86.

THE lower end of the Audi TT range is just about in range of buyers with a GR86-sized budget. Prices start from £34,840 for the 194bhp 40 TFSI Sport, which is a smart sports car, but not as involving or as fun to drive as the Toyota. However, you do get a high-quality cabin filled with great tech, and a similar 2+2 layout. Just bear in mind this is a starting price, so adding necessary options will bump this figure up significantly.

FOR similar money to a new GR86 you could buy a 981-generation Cayman on the used market. You’ll be looking at the entry-level 2.7-litre flat-sixengined model, but it’s a still a great unit mounted in the middle of a brilliant chassis. You’ll have a choice of six-speed manual or sevenspeed dual-clutch gearboxes, and used examples at this price have around 50,000 miles on the clock – but Porsche reliability means this shouldn’t be an issue.

NEWCARS Mercedes C 300 e Alex Ingram

Alex_Ingram@autovia.co.uk @AxleIngram

MANY people might be sceptical about plug-in hybrids, which can seem like a halfway house between a standard ICE car and a fully electric option, without really reaping the benefits of either. But this new Mercedes C 300 e feels like one of the least compromised PHEVs around. Many other plug-ins lack the electriconly range to offset the fact that their heavy battery often takes a toll on the ICE unit’s efficiency. Not so the Mercedes. That’s because it has a 25.4kWh battery, which is larger than the unit in the original Nissan Leaf. Officially, that means a range of up to 68 miles, and we saw an impressive 60 miles in real-world conditions. The electric motor has the grunt to get by in most everyday situations, too. It produces 128bhp and 440Nm of torque, with great

Mercedes C 300 e response away from the line and just a hum of road noise, but little else. Brake regeneration is used to put energy back into the battery when slowing down. On its own, the system does this ‘intelligently’, decelerating more when approaching junctions or if traffic slows ahead. Some will think it’s all very clever, but it makes the car a little hard to predict; we found greater consistency by fixing the regen settings. If there’s enough charge in the battery, the C 300 e defaults to EV mode. In the hybrid setting, heavier presses of the throttle will bring the combustion engine into play. The 2.0-litre petrol has 201bhp, which means a combined output of 309bhp and 550Nm of torque. The result is a more-thanadequate 0-62mph dash of 6.1 seconds. The key figure is fuel economy, though. While this will vary drastically depending how you drive and how often you charge, we often saw 60-70mpg. That’s similar to

what we achieved with the less powerful C 220 d, which is only £3,200 cheaper. But the diesel model can’t compare for company car tax rates. With CO2 emissions of just 13g/km, the C 300 e means annual deductions of £1,480 for a higher-rate income tax payer, which contrasts with a bill of £4,989 for C 220 d drivers. So are there any downsides? It’s a shame that our car had no provision for DC rapid charging. The C 300 e is available in some markets with 55kW charging, which replenishes the battery in around 30 minutes, but UK cars are AC only. You’ll need two hours for a full charge at 11kW. The other downside is the braking. As with most plug-in hybrid and fully electric vehicles, the first part of the pedal travel works with the motor regen, and heavier stops are aided by the mechanical brakes. The regen part here is very long and very soft, and even with a harder press it’s still

des C 300 e

not particularly reassuring, although the brakes bring the car to a halt quickly enough. The need to package the hybrid tech has compromised practicality, too. Due to a raised boot floor, the load capacity drops from the saloon’s 455 litres to 315 litres. These points aside, the C 300 e is the same C-Class we’ve come to admire. It’s not quite as sharp to drive as a BMW 3 Series, but it’s impressively stable at speed, and its ride is slightly softer than its rival’s. The brilliant MBUX infotainment is also standard. The 11.9-inch touchscreen looks sharp, is responsive and presents apps such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto across its entire display. Even the on-screen climate controls are no hardship to use; they’re a permanent fixture, and the keys are large enough to make minor adjustments easily. The rest of the cabin is impressive, too – more contemporary than a 3 Series, though the BMW has more headroom in the back.

NEWCARS

Verdict THE C 300 e is a champion of efficiency, offering huge potential for low-cost motoring if you use what its powertrain has to offer. With a superb electric-only range and strong performance, many drivers could realistically use this as a full EV much of the time. And on long journeys it benefits from its refined engine, comfort and slick cabin tech.

Alastair_crooks@autovia.co.uk

THE Peugeot 308 is available as a plug-in hybrid for the first time, but the PHEV family car segment is already as competitive as it is congested. This Hybrid 180 model offers up 178bhp from its combination of 1.6-litre four-cylinder turbo petrol engine and electric motor, and in Allure Premium trim costing £33,935, it looks as if it could be the pick of the plug-in 308 range. But with the likes of the SEAT Leon eHybrid, Volkswagen Golf eHybrid and our former Car of the Year, the Skoda Octavia iV, to contend with, the 308 will have a tough job to stand out from the crowd. From the outside, the omens are good. Allure Premium comes with 17-inch alloys and the 308’s design looks sharp. But it’s the cabin that’s the car’s party piece. Quality is on a par with premium rivals, and the 308 delivers some classy touches, such as a frameless rear-view mirror, rear parking

sensors, aluminium pedals and plenty of piano-black finishing. On top of that, Allure Premium features sports seats, a reversing camera, keyless entry and wireless phone charging. Peugeot’s i-Cockpit is the key ingredient to the interior, however. We’ve seen it before, but the 308 introduces ‘i-Toggles’ for the first time. Below the 10-inch touchscreen is a row of touch-sensitive pads used for menu shortcuts, which can also be swapped depending on your most commonly used menus. While the pads are big and easy to use on the move, it’s tempting to rest your wrist on these i-Toggles to use the touchscreen, meaning you can make a wrong input. The infotainment itself is crisp and simple to use, but we still have problems with

Peugeot’s i-Cockpit layout when it comes to the steering wheel and digital dash. It’s our main issue with the cabin, because while packaging in the rear isn’t great, passengers won’t feel too cramped. A Volkswagen Golf feels much more airy, though. Boot space is also average, with the standard 308 hatchback’s 412-litre space dropping to 361 litres for this PHEV due to the location of the battery. While the Hybrid 180 has less power than the Hybrid 225, they both make an identical 360Nm of torque. This means the lowerpowered car is just 0.1 seconds slower from 0-62mph, with a time of 7.6 seconds. The same eight-speed automatic gearbox is used across

the 308 range and it further closes the gap between the two hybrid powertrains to the point where you struggle to really spot the differences on the road. The transmission’s shifts aren’t the swiftest, but they are smooth. There are three modes to choose from: Sport, Hybrid and Electric. Sport gives the steering a little more weight and the gearbox is keener to hold on to ratios, but there’s not much change over Hybrid mode. Electric mode allows you to capitalise on the claimed 40 miles of zero-emissions driving from the 12.4kWh battery, which takes just under four hours to charge using a 3.7kW feed; upgrading to the 7.4kW on-board charger sees this drop to just under two hours. A more aggressive regenerative braking mode helps to force more energy back into the battery when slowing down; it feels quite strong at first, but the system learns

www.autoexpress.co.uk

your inputs with the accelerator and adjusts its level of braking force accordingly. On the move, it’s clear that the 308’s damping is softer than in many of its rivals, and Peugeot has veered more towards comfort than agility for its family hatch. You also feel the hybrid model’s extra weight in corners, and while there’s plenty of grip, the steering isn’t the most communicative, even if the chassis feels composed. Along with the relatively refined powertrain, It means that racking up long distances in the 308 Hybrid 180 is relaxing. Peugeot claims up to 247.4mpg, but of course, you’ll have to keep on top of charging to achieve this. Driving around with the weight of a large battery will likely see fuel economy rise barely above 40mpg. At £33,935, the 308 Hybrid 180 is more expensive than a SEAT Leon eHybrid, but it undercuts a similarly specced Volkswagen Golf PHEV. Crucially, it feels like a much more premium product, too.

INFOTAINMENT New system features i-Toggle hot keys as menu shortcuts below main panel. Graphics are good and the 308 gets plenty of features in Allure Premium trim

Verdict INTRODUCING hybrid power to the new 308 range has given Peugeot’s family hatchback another dimension of desirability with interior quality to rival that of some more upmarket models. The driving position is still flawed and it’s not the most fun car to drive, but it’s certainly the most accomplished entry in the family hatchback sector we’ve seen from the French brand for a long time.

AS automotive facelifts go – or Life Cycle Impulses in BMW parlance – the new M8 Competition Gran Coupé is a light one. However, look closely and you’ll realise that changes have been made. The model’s styling is subtly different and arguably a little more aggressive than the car it replaces, with a new lower section to the front bumper, fresh 20-inch alloy wheels, eight new body colours, including four ‘frozen’ matte finishes, and what the brand calls its ‘M lights Shadow Line’ trim for the headlights. This means the housing inside the LED headlamp units is darkened to create a more menacing look, giving buyers even more scope to personalise their car. The same is true inside, where the twopiece carbon-fibre-backed bucket seats first seen on the M3 and M4 models are now available as an option, while the cabin is trimmed in Merino leather and Alcantara upholstery. There are also new colour choices offered for the interior, too. However, none of this really changes how the M8 Competition Gran Coupé drives, which is to say that it’s extremely rapid and competent, and has a broad repertoire. The engine generates huge thrust, with barely any lag from the turbos. The V8 soundtrack, which is augmented in Sport mode, is nice, too, although the fake rumbles and pops

It’s superbly stable at speed and doesn’t take very long to get there, sprinting from 0-62mph in just 3.2 seconds thanks to BMW’s M xDrive four-wheel-drive system. However, when the road starts to get twistier, you do begin to feel the M8’s significant 1,995kg kerbweight. The steering is a little mushy and doesn’t deliver much in the way of feedback, and while there’s plenty of grip on offer, you don’t feel all that involved in the driving experience. So is this sleek high-performance fourdoor coupé more of a limo? Well, not really, because to achieve the performance levels an M8 needs to offer, the ride is also on the firmer side. At higher speeds in Comfort mode the suspension deals with bumps relatively well, even on 20-inch wheels, but lumps and scars are more noticeable at lower speed around town. One dynamic plus point is that the car’s M-developed brake-by-wire system is one of the better executions of this technology, with a more natural-feeling pedal than some rival models that offer similar set-ups. There’s an incredible level of kit on offer, with BMW’s OS 8 infotainment system one

and here is where the M8 Competition Gran Coupé comes unstuck. Beyond a six-figure price tag, BMWs have sometimes struggled to justify their place in a rarefied area of the market that includes competitors such as the Porsche Panamera and the Mercedes-AMG GT 4 Door. Both of these feel more engaging to drive and more special inside than the M8 Competition. But BMW’s greatest rival arguably comes from within, in the form of the excellent and significantly cheaper M5 Competition. At £107,520, it’s still pricey, but the M5 is more affordable than its M8 sibling and is more agile and better to drive. Not to mention the fact that the 5 Series-based car offers more room inside and a bigger boot, at 530 litres, compared with 440 litres for the sleeker Gran Coupé. Plus the M5’s boot opening is larger and more practical, too. Of course, the M8 Performance Gran Coupé’s smoother roofline and exclusivity will appeal to some buyers, but it will really have to in order to justify its price tag.

Verdict SUBTLE mid-life updates to its styling and a revised spec inside with more personalisation potential have kept the M8 Competition Gran Coupé fresh enough. However, the M5 is a better (and cheaper) bet if you want a supersaloon, while if you’re sold on the fourdoor coupé styling but still want an M division flavour, the M850i GC could be a better compromise and more usable.

THE Skoda Karoq burst onto the scene in 2017 and was our Mid-Size SUV of the Year in 2018. So, given that success, it’s understandable that Skoda hasn’t tweaked the formula much with this mid-life facelift. There are some subtle cosmetic changes, such as new LED matrix headlamps, a rearlight design in line with the larger Kodiaq, a wider grille and reprofiled bumpers. This mid-spec SE L model also has 18-inch alloys, chrome roof rails and an extended rear spoiler to set it apart from the base-spec SE. Inside, the layout is essentially the same as before, but SE L trim now gets a heated steering wheel and microsuede leather. There’s a mix of various plastics in the cabin, but it all feels well screwed together. While the basic SE isn’t exactly lacking in tech, the SE L gets a rear-view camera, front and rear parking sensors and keyless entry on top of an eight-inch central touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. It’s a shame that a digital dash is an option in this class in 2022, though. As we expect from Skoda, there are lots of thoughtful touches, such as the familiar ice scraper and umbrella, plus fold-out tables for rear passengers, storage nets, a clip-on waste bin and a jumbo box with reversible cup-holders in the centre console. Skoda also offers 10 ‘packages’ that bundle together extras in themes. The £950 Travel Assist Package adds adaptive cruise

control with collision warning, AEB and a speed limiter, lane assist, traffic jam assist, traffic-sign recognition and a USB-C port. The £1,955 Light Package includes ambient lighting and LED exterior lights. One of the reasons the Karoq has won so many Auto Express group tests in the past is its practicality. SE L trim has individually folding rear seats, and with up to 588 litres of boot space, the Karoq beats rivals such as its close sibling, the SEAT Ateca, as well as the Ford Kuga, the recently updated Vauxhall Grandland and the Peugeot 3008. The Skoda is available with five engines: two petrols and three diesels. The 1.5-litre TSI four-cylinder unit we’re testing here is the most powerful petrol model you can buy, with 148bhp and 250Nm of torque. It’s a decent step up in performance compared with the entry-level 108bhp 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol, but it feels similar to that powertrain in its delivery. The 8.8-second 0-62mph time is quick enough and the in-gear acceleration is more than adequate for a mid-size family SUV. The small turbocharger kicks in early, so there’s enough power low down in the rev range to save you from having to work the six-speed manual gearbox hard – although it’s a nice shift action and will save you £1,505 over the DSG auto unit. While we’ve driven more refined fourcylinder petrols, the suppression of wind and road noise even on SE L’s larger 18-inch wheels is good and it adds to the overall feel of solidity. Plus the 1.5 TSI sits just one CO2 tax band above the three-cylinder

NEWCARS

version; its claimed fuel economy of 43.5mpg is respectable enough. Sitting on the tried-and-tested MQB platform, this updated Karoq doesn’t feel any different to the original when it comes to ride and handling, but that’s no bad thing. Adaptive dampers are available on higher-spec models, but the standard suspension does an excellent job of absorbing road imperfections. Although the Karoq feels agile enough and there’s a surprisingly small amount of body roll, the soft ride and light steering make the car feel much more at home when you’re driving it more gently. Skoda is offering keen finance deals for the Karoq, too. This SE L is available on a 48-month deal with a £10,000 deposit for £362 per month. A similarly specced SEAT Ateca with the same 148bhp engine will cost £375 per month and the Vauxhall Grandland will cost £396 per month.

Verdict THE SUV market moves quickly, so it’s testament to the Skoda Karoq that with only small tweaks it can still challenge the best in its (very competitive) class. The engine range is as strong as ever, but the lack of electrification is a little disappointing when most of the car’s rivals offer mild or plug-in hybrid tech to help cut running costs.

FEATURE Audi digital lights LET THERE BE LIGHT Engineers have fitted the Digital Matrix headlights to the new Audi A8. Our man is given an overview of how the tech works

HI-TECH Audi’s Digital Matrix headlights combine an LED bulb with 1.2 million miniature mirrors to provide a carpet of light and arrows that indicate the car’s direction of travel

JUST WHAT IS

THE MATRIX?

Audi seeks to revolutionise car safety and personalisation with its advanced lighting tech Tom Jervis

AT the cutting edge of lighting tech are digital matrix headlights – and they’re about more than simply lighting the road ahead. We snapped up an invite to Audi’s usually top-secret lighting development room at the company’s headquarters in Ingolstadt, Germany. The venue is an almost pitch-black aircraft hangar, but that doesn’t stop Audi blanking off our phone cameras with stickers, to stop us snapping any of the hi-tech projects inside. Instead, we’re directed to the centre of the room, where Audi’s new A8 is showing off its latest lighting units. But what exactly are digital headlights? In essence, they work by shining an LED bulb on to a ‘digital micromirror’ chip. This houses a staggering 1.2 million miniature mirrors that can individually tilt to either reflect or deflect light. The light is then bounced out through a projector lens and on to the road, with an image created by the light and shadow from the mirrors. How on Earth are they able to fit this many components into such a tiny chip? As lighting development boss Dr Michael Hamm told us: “Magic” – and for the average consumer, it may as well be. So what’s it like in practice? The first thing you’ll notice out on the road in the new A8 is the aptly named ‘light

32 1 June 2022

carpet’, which projects a carpet of light on to the lane in front of you. This is accented by a pair of chevrons, indicating your direction of travel to other road users. Want to change lanes? Simply indicate and the carpet is rolled out further to the next lane, pulsing in tandem with the car’s dynamic indicators. Audi claims that this not only shows the driver’s intent to fellow motorists, but also reminds the driver that their indicator is on, so they can keep their eyes on the road. Another obvious safety benefit is a warning triangle that is projected in front of the driver whenever the car’s cloudbased infotainment system is alerted to a hazard ahead. On a country lane, the Digital Matrix units further stretch their technical muscles as all of the internal LEDs switch on, creating an effect similar to curtains opening at the start of a show. The micromirrors inside the headlamp can adjust their position 5,000 times per second and shut off in groups to avoid dazzling oncoming vehicles. But fanfare aside, are they worth it? It’s hard to say at this stage. A lot of the Digital Matrix tech is reliant on clear and precise road markings, which can be few and far between on UK roads. Some people may also be disappointed by the slightly fuzzy appearance of whatever the headlights project. This is intentional, however; the Digital Matrix lights

are a 1,800 Euro (£1,520) option in Germany, with a replacement unit most likely to cost significantly more. The hazy effect eliminates the need to replace the headlamp if several of the micromirrors fail, similar to the way a dead pixel can ruin the image on your television. All of this seems a tad sci-fi, yet Audi already has plans to further improve its cars’ lighting – this time at the rear. The A8 currently uses a set of OLED tail-lights, which utilise a light signature that has six individual organic LED (OLED) elements. These can be customised via a selection of presets in the car’s infotainment screen, allowing drivers to personalise the look of their car. Audi told us the next step is to increase the number of OLED elements in this unit by a factor of 10, resulting in 60 tiny OLEDs per cluster. As seen in the Audi A6 e-tron concept, this will allow for greater creative flexibility in what the light engineers can program the car to display. Continuing the emphasis on safety, Audi plans to eventually display warning signals through the rear light signatures to alert drivers behind the car of hazards. Images would be used in favour of text to overcome language barriers; however, getting this kind of feature homologated will take years of negotiation with authorities.

CITY driving is a tedious process. So much time is spent in gridlock – jams often made worse by drivers in vehicles much too large and obnoxious for their surroundings. City streets would be far more enjoyable places to be – and easier to park on – if everyone drove tiny cars like the three we’ve assembled here.

WHILE the Yaris underpinnings are a very promising place to start, the sophistication and refinement found in the supermini haven’t quite found their way into the Aygo X. The main issue is ride comfort; whether driving over pock-marked urban surfaces and speed bumps, or once up to speed out of town, there’s a harshness and a fidget to the Toyota’s ride that isn’t there in the Hyundai. The powertrain doesn’t impress much, either. For starters, the three-cylinder engine has quite a pronounced vibration at idle, although it does smooth out somewhat under load. We wouldn’t expect a small city car to deliver storming straightline speed, but the Aygo X feels all the more lethargic as a result of long gearing. It’ll hit 60mph in second gear, and first feels long, too; with so little power available at the lower end of the rev range, it takes plenty of revs and excessive clutch slip if you ever need to move off in a hurry. Despite the long lower gears, fifth is quite short, so the engine is noisier than the i10’s on the motorway, too. There are positives, though. While we question the logic of the gearing, the shift quality of the manual transmission is slick. As you’d expect of a car so small, the Aygo X feels light and agile; it’s quite a

TOYOTA split the cost of developing the first two generations of its Aygo city car with Peugeot and Citroen, whose 107/108 and C1 models were largely identical and built in the same factory. However, with the French firms withdrawing from the segment, this time Toyota has dipped into its own vast resources to make the venture worthwhile. That’s because beneath that funky exterior, with its distinctive front end, two-tone paint, chunky SUV-inspired body cladding and oversized 18-inch alloy wheels, the Aygo X features a trimmed-down version of the platform used by the Yaris supermini. One upshot of this is that the new model has grown from the 3,455mm of the old car to 3,700mm. It’s still a small car, then, but not as dinky as it once was. The outside has bags of character, which we reckon will be enough to draw in buyers all on its own. The cabin isn’t short on cheer, either; the dashboard is made up of a large, swooping oval that houses the infotainment screen and blends into the instrument panel, while it’s highlighted by lots of trim and upholstery that match whichever exterior colour you go for. On our test car, that included orange sections on the doors, seat bolsters and dashboard trim, plus highlights on the air vents. Under the bonnet, Toyota has kept things simple. The single engine option is the same compact 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol as the previous Aygo, which now produces 71bhp and 93Nm of torque. A five-speed manual gearbox is standard, while an automatic is offered for an extra £1,100.

THERE’S good and bad news with the Aygo X when it comes to everyday usability. That increased footprint when compared with its predecessor means it’s much more spacious inside – especially in the back. However, it’s still tighter than in the Hyundai. In terms of head and kneeroom, it’s behind the i10, although there is a decent amount of foot space underneath the front seats. The rear bench is quite flat and not as comfortable as its rivals here. The rear doors are cut around those large wheelarches, and they’re very short, which means that it’s a bit of a squeeze to get inside. As with its predecessors, the Aygo X only has two seatbelts in the back. At 231 litres, the boot capacity is only a little short of the 252 litres offered by the Hyundai, and quite far ahead of the 185-litre Fiat. The seats fold in a 50:50 split, while the parcel shelf is made from thin fabric and is very light, so it’s easy to move out of the way when it isn’t needed. Storage is okay, with a couple of cup-holders located in front of the gearlever and a cubby that’s deep and wide enough for a smartphone.

CHEAP fuel bills are a huge priority for any vehicle at the moment, but strong economy is particularly important in the city car segment. In this instance, the i10 pips the Aygo X, averaging 53.1mpg to the Toyota’s 51.9mpg. At current fuel prices, that’s the difference between spending £2,943 in the Toyota over the next 20,000 miles, to £2,877 in the Hyundai. Neither can compete with the all-electric Fiat, though. Even in the worst-case scenario of home charging at the energy-capped rate of 28p per kilowatt hour, our 4.9-mile per kilowatt hour efficiency rating works out at £1,143 for 20,000 miles of driving – edging towards a third of what you’d spend putting petrol in the Aygo X or i10.

score WHEN it comes to the driving experience, the i10 very much lives up to any assumptions you’d make from its sensible appearance. It’s a more mature, refined take on the city car than the Aygo X; the ride is the smoothest of this trio, while a mix of a longer fifth gear and well suppressed wind noise means that it’s a more relaxed cruiser than the Toyota as well. The trade-off for this more grown-up behaviour is that it’s not as much fun to drive. Next to the Toyota, the Hyundai feels a little lazy to turn into corners; there’s slightly more body roll, and the tyres don’t deliver quite as much grip. On the plus side, the steering is light, which – as with the others here – means that parking the i10 is an absolute doddle. The four-cylinder unit in the Hyundai is much sweeter than the Toyota’s triple. It’s smoother at lower speeds, yet produces more power. Although the difference is clear from the gap between the pair’s 0-62mph times – 14.9 seconds for the Aygo X, 12.6 seconds for the i10 – what this means in the real world is that the Hyundai is much happier to keep up with traffic on the open road, and

HYUNDAI has been able to succeed with the city car formula by splitting its development costs two ways, because the i10 shares its platform with its relative from Kia, the Picanto. The i10 (and its predecessor, the Atoz) has always had quite boxy, upright proportions in order to maximise practicality in a small overall package. Now in its third generation, the i10 has taken on its sleekest shape yet – although next to its style-led rivals here, it definitely still prioritises function over form. The same applies inside, where the cabin design looks a little plain when compared with its competitors. It all feels solid enough, though, and the ergonomics are great; the driving position is comfortable, the view out is clear and the gearlever is raised quite high, so it’s close to the steering wheel. There’s more space in the footwell to rest your left foot than in the 500, too, which is completely lacking any sort of foot rest. While the Toyota is limited to just one engine choice, the i10 is offered with three. The entry point is a 1.0-litre three-cylinder unit with stats that closely match the Aygo X’s – it makes 66bhp and 96Nm. The engine tested here increases to 1.2 litres and adds an extra cylinder, and has 83bhp and 117Nm to show for it. The range tops out with a turbocharged T-GDi version of the three-cylinder, which is exclusive to the sporty N Line trim and serves up 99bhp and 172Nm. That results in a 0-62mph time of 10.5 seconds – almost enough to give the sporty Volkswagen up! GTI a run for its money.

THE Hyundai feels like the least cheerful car inside and out, but it’s easily the most practical. Considering the i10’s size, it’s impressive how well packaged it is when compared to rivals with a similar footprint. If you regularly need to carry people in the back, then there’s no question that this is the car to have, even down to the simple fact that the back doors are sensibly sized, so adults won’t struggle to climb in. Once there, they’ll find the Hyundai is comfortably the most spacious option in terms of both knee and headroom. It’s also a rarity in this segment – and unique in this group – because it’s the only car with space for three in the back. A middle passenger will definitely make things a tight squeeze, but at least the flexibility is there. In terms of storage, the door bins are deep front and rear, and the glovebox is roomy, too.

EVERY Hyundai comes as standard with a five-year, unlimited-mileage warranty. Against most competition, that’s very impressive cover, but Toyota’s protection is even longer, offering drivers up to 10 years or 100,000 miles of coverage. There is one caveat to that, however: in order to get that full period, you must ensure that the car is serviced on schedule at an official Toyota dealer every year. Beside the other two, the Fiat’s three-year/ unlimited-mileage package seems a little short. However, EV newcomers will be reassured by the fact that any defects in the battery pack are covered for eight years or 100,000 miles.

The more expensive Fiat splits the two, meanwhile; it’s set to be worth 53.5 per cent of its original asking price after the same period.

THE 500’s simplicity continues when it comes to moving off. The gear selector is laid out as four large buttons side-by-side; prod ‘D’ and the 500 moves off smoothly and silently. Compared with its rivals here, the benefits of an electric drivetrain are obvious within a couple of yards of pulling away. There’s no vibration whatsoever, and when that’s combined with little more than a distant whirr from the motor, it makes the 500 feel incredibly sophisticated in this company. It’s so easy to control the accelerator (ideal when trying to drive smoothly in traffic or park in a tight space) and when you push the pedal harder, there’s far more acceleration available, too. A 0-62mph time of nine seconds flat means the 500 is comfortably the quickest car here, and keen responses make it feel even more urgent. Although harder stops are taken care of by mechanical brakes, the electric motor looks after gentler deceleration while putting charge back into the battery to extend the car’s range. The energy regeneration can be made stronger by selecting the

DEVELOPING a city car from the ground up is a difficult process, which is why Toyota used an evolution of a tried-and-tested platform for the Aygo X. In creating an all-electric model, Fiat didn’t have that choice – the latest 500 is a clean-sheet design. However, the iconic jellymould profile stays, and is highlighted by plenty of stylish details; the LED headlights are split by a clamshell bonnet, while the smooth flanks are punctuated by a single chrome-effect strip that neatly integrates the flush door pulls. Of the three, it definitely gives off the best impression of a premium product. That continues inside, too. In terms of materials, there’s no significant jump beyond the other two – the dash plastics are still hard – but the understated dashboard design, which features body-coloured sections in some versions, looks closer to a premium hatch like a MINI than something that’s built down to a price. The driving position is quite high and it’s a shame that there’s no rest for your left foot, but the simplicity elsewhere shows that thought has gone into the design. The climate control switches are located on a single bank of piano-style keys, the digital dash is easy to read and the steering wheel buttons are well laid out. There are two powertrains to choose from in the 500. The entry-level model gets a 92bhp electric motor paired with a 23.9kWh battery that’s good for an official range of 115 miles. That will be perfectly fine for use as a second car, but will be limited for anyone wanting to cover longer distances. The next model – and the one we’re testing here – gets a bigger battery and more power, at 116bhp. The 42kWh pack increases the overall range to 199 miles.

ROAD TESTS Toyota Aygo X vs rivals Sherpa driving mode, which also limits the 500’s speed and cuts back the power of the climate control to extract as many miles of range as possible. For EV users who like one-pedal driving, this is the only mode in which it engages, which is disappointing. Refinement is fine for a small car. As with the i10, there’s a little wind noise around the front pillars, but otherwise it’s not bad. The Fiat’s ride is a little more fidgety than the Hyundai’s, but smoother than the Toyota’s. That battery pack is heavy, so the 500 weighs roughly 400kg more than its sub-1,000kg rivals. As a result, it doesn’t feel quite as nippy through turns, but the position of the battery under the floor means that the centre of gravity is low, so it feels stable and secure.

Practicality

3.1

IF you’re looking for a spacious family car, then the 500 isn’t for you. The back seats are the most cramped of the three cars here, both for head and legroom, while the Fiat’s 185-litre boot will be good for little more than a modest supermarket shop. If you only intend to use those back seats sparingly, though, the 500 should be fine. The open space between the front footwells and that bubble-shaped roof mean that, for those up front, it feels spacious and airy. The windows are large, which, combined with the high driving position, results in the best all-round visibility here. While getting child seats into such tight rear quarters will likely prove to be a stressful business, the good news is that the front passenger seat is also equipped with Isofix mounts.

WHILE the petrol city cars can be refuelled in a matter of minutes, the 500 has the benefit of being able to be charged from home – potentially overnight, when electricity rates can be cheaper because demand on the grid is lower. Plugged into an 11kW charger, the process takes four hours and 15 minutes. If you’re on the move, the Fiat can accept a recharge of up to 85kW at a public rapid charger. That means a zero to 80 per cent top-up takes around 35 minutes.

THE Fiat’s range will vary based on temperature throughout the year. In the warm conditions of our test, it achieved an excellent 4.9 miles per kWh – enough for 209 miles between charges. However, a long-term test over winter averaged 4mi/kWh – enough for 168 miles. If you’re a company car user, then choosing the 500 is a no-brainer. It sits in the lowest two per cent Benefitin-Kind band, so a standard-rate income taxpayer will face deductions of just £115 per year, compared with £879 for the Toyota and £974 for the Hyundai.

IT’S no surprise to discover that the pureelectric 500 is the priciest car here, but it compensates by offering a zero-emissions powertrain and more equipment. The Icon model comes with a 10.25-inch touchscreen, rain-sensing wipers and traffic-sign recognition. Based on matching terms to the other pair here, plus a £1,100 deposit contribution from Fiat, it comes to £404 per month – a significant step up, but one which is balanced out by lower running costs. The RED special edition costs £407 per month. This gets specific styling features, including red highlights on the door mirrors and 16-inch alloys, plus the option of red upholstery inside. The top-spec La Prima by Bocelli gets a JBL hi-fi, 17-inch wheels and wireless smartphone charging, and comes to £468. It’s worth noting that if you’re happy to forego some range, then the 26kWh 500 Action model is much closer to our rivals here, at £315 per month.

TOYOTA’S set-up doesn’t have built-in navigation, but the nine-inch display makes up for it with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto – the same applies to the eight-inch screen on lower trim levels. Whichever smartphone system you use, the bright display responds quickly to inputs. The built-in system is the same so-so interface that Toyota has used for some time. There aren’t many features – just access to media functions, trip info and not much else. The physical buttons either side of the display make it simple to switch between menus, but the buttons themselves are small and fiddly to use. The climate controls sit in a separate panel below the main screen, and the simple knobs and switches are as intuitive as you’d hope. The instrument panel is also very simple; an LCD display, presenting trip and safety information, sits below a large speedometer and to the right of a much smaller rev counter.

THROUGHOUT its model line-up, Hyundai tends to offer some of the most straightforward and logical infotainment set-ups around. While its smallest car is short of some of the features found in larger models in the range, it’s still a slick system to use. Unlike the Toyota’s, the Hyundai’s system is available with built-in navigation. It comes as part of the £1,000 Tech Pack, which also includes live services (including weather reporting), a wireless charging pad, intelligent speed-limit warning and compatibility with Hyundai’s Bluelink app. This lets the driver programme route data and access trip information through their smartphone. The screen isn’t the most responsive to use, and needs a positive prod to confirm any selections. As with Toyota’s system, a handful of physical shortcut keys surround the display, although the chunky buttons here are more pleasant and easier to use.

ONE of the clearest areas where Fiat can justify the extra cost for the 500 is in its infotainment tech. The touchscreen system is comfortably the best here; it has the others beaten for loading times, graphics and the number of features. Among those are the EV-specific menus, which allow the driver to view the battery level and energy flow in real time. The home page is well presented on the widescreen display, and it’s possible to customise the screen layout. The navigation graphics are clear and simple, while the screen responds well to pinch and swiping motions. Route planning is a quick process, too. The Fiat is also the only car here to get a digital driver’s display. As with the main screen, the seven-inch binnacle looks sharp and the information is presented clearly. Subtle rocker switches on the back of the steering wheel mean adjusting the volume and skipping tracks is easy.

THE BMW 330e xDrive hasn’t been with us all that long. Just three months, in fact. It was only ever meant as a stop-gap between my Volkswagen ID.3 going back and my next electric car – the Sophisto Grey BMW iX3 M Sport Pro you see in the main image – being ready for collection. Yet the 3 Series Touring was chosen to fulfil a very specific brief: would running a plug-in hybrid feel like a backward step after a string of fully electric vehicles? It’s not an easy question to answer. The idea of the 330e being a ‘stop-gap’ is particularly relevant in today’s new-car market, and something I touched on in my first report (Issue 1,723). Many new car buyers are using hybrids like these as a stepping stone – a way of dipping their toe in the world of electrification before finally committing to a full EV. But for me, as someone used to managing range, charging and rising energy bills – even without access to off-street parking – the idea of plugging a car in for such a meagre range (25 miles on a good day) did seem a little trivial, especially with the fall-back of a petrol engine should I need it. Hybrids, in general, are fantastic. I love how they can creep around town without using the engine, and I’ll admit that long journeys – especially late at night – have been much less stressful for not having to rely on the UK’s often patchy electric-car charging infrastructure. But the BMW’s system isn’t the most talented I’ve tried. It feels like it’s designed to prioritise electricity for as long as the battery is

charged, but let it run flat and it’ll operate more like a petrol car. The latest Lexus PHEVs realise the benefits of electric running more of the time, and feel more accomplished as a result. I managed more EV miles per tank in the Mercedes GLA 250 e I reviewed last year, too. And yet I totally understand why the 330e is such a huge hit

for BMW, and why it topped the plug-in hybrid sales charts in 2021. It’s an incredibly satisfying car to live with; over three months and 2,642 miles I’ve not once wished for more power or performance, better handling or greater high-speed refinement. Some might even call it the consummate all-rounder. Everything feels familiar. The driving position is spot on, and the infotainment system is among the most intuitive I’ve ever used – although judging by information released on the forthcoming, facelifted 3 Series (Issue 1,729), that may not last long. The new 330e will lift the maker’s eighth-generation iDrive system from the BMW i4; to my eyes (and hands) it’s just not as straightforward as the screens I’ve been using these past couple of months. One thing the jury is out on is practicality. I was singing the Touring’s praises when it was first delivered, and I’ve posted updates since then questioning why we don’t see more estate cars on the road. But after just a few days with the iX3 (more on that car

in my next report) I’m already reaping the benefits of that higher seating position and taller roofline – lifting my daughter into her car seat is so much simpler, for instance. The 330’s split rear screen is a wonderful idea in theory, although in practice I’ve used it less often than I expected. Nine times out of 10 I’ll open up the main tailgate – feeding a buggy through the letterbox opening is a non-starter, and even stowing the cables that way is an impossible task because I keep them in the compartment under the boot floor. While I’ve not really needed more space in the time I’ve had the Touring, the iX3’s boot is significantly bigger, which may come in handy for our summer holidays. Overall though, the 330e has been a fantastic car to spend time in – just like any modern 3 Series. To call the PHEV a jack of all trades might sound like I’m selling it short, but as with any hybrid, how effective it is in reducing your dependence on fossil fuels hinges on how you use it. So for me, it has felt like a backward step, but for many, it remains the perfect solution.

WE DON’T From good to not-sogood in a couple of months; I’ve used the split tailgate less often than I expected – there isn’t much you can feed through the rear screen

Verdict Second opinion

“Another issue with PHEVs is their ‘real world’ eco credentials. The 330e offers company car tax benefits, but if you don’t charge it up regularly, then it’s as polluting as, if not worse than, a petrol model.”

John McIlroy Deputy editor

www.autoexpress.co.uk

WHILE I appreciate how vital plug-in hybrids are for people making the switch to electric, for a seasoned EV driver like myself (and one without access to a driveway) I’ve found PHEV life is too compromised. The estate-versus-SUV argument is less clear-cut, however; I’m looking forward to seeing whether the iX3 makes for a better family car.

Lexus UX 300e

FINAL REPORT Even with no home charging, electric SUV won us over Dawn Grant

Dawn_Grant@autovia.co.uk

IT’S time to say goodbye to our Lexus UX 300e, so I thought I would give it a final clean before it goes. I always think a close-up wash ‘n’ wipe gives you a better idea of the car’s colour and finish than just walking up to it in a car park – particularly if you’re cleaning it in sunshine. It’s probably fair to say that, given the car’s relatively small dimensions, Lexus is shifting rather more examples of the UX 300e on looks and image than on outright practicality – and frankly, I can see why. Our car’s Terrane Khaki metallic paint is an extra that adds £570 to the list price, but it’s been a big hit, and not just with me. I’ve received many compliments from passers-by, usually while charging up. It has made a pleasant change from the usual queries about what life is like with an electric car – and because most buyers will roll the extras into their monthly bills, I’m not surprised that shades like the Khaki are

popular. It’s great to have a premium brand offering more than dark silver or black. I also warmed to the overall look of the UX during its time with us. Its complex bodywork creases took a little getting used to, but in the end I was a particular fan of the rear-end styling, where the sharp angles really do make it stand out from the crowd. I have to confess that I found the big front grille a bit too much, however. The leather-trimmed interior certainly adds to the Lexus’s premium feel, and it’s definitely easier to live with on the whole, although the cream colour made me a little nervous at first. We did end up with a slight blue tinge on the driver’s seat – my husband and I default to wearing jeans most days – but after a bit of effort and some leather cleaner (we used Armor All wipes) we managed to get it looking as good as new. The leather upholstery was a godsend when it came to transporting my daughter’s

puppy Isla around, too; it was so much less hassle to clean up fur that wasn’t embedded in cloth. Isla is seven months old now, though, and if she sits up on the rear seats instead of lying across them, it sets off the rear-seatbelt sensors. They’re alarmingly loud (fit for purpose there, I guess) but also extremely persistent; I’ve got around the issue by fastening every belt before a trip. For many people, of course, electric cars will still be about range, and how reliable (or otherwise) the public charging network is. But as someone who doesn’t have access to a home charging point, I came away from my time with the Lexus with a grudging respect for both sides of EV ownership. It was a pity that we had the car over the colder months, because it did the battery no favours. I’m sure the warmer weather will increase the range a bit, but we have already been getting 186 miles predicted range at a full charge – only 10 miles down on the official figure. This perhaps reflects Lexus’s approach to its range calculations, which are said to be deliberately more realistic. The spring sunshine did highlight an issue, though: on one longer journey the

Second opinion

“Dawn’s right about the UX’s infotainment, but Lexus is slowly working its way through upgrades to its line-up of cars. The system on the latest NX is much easier to use.”

WE LIKE There’s lots to like in the UX, but one thing I haven’t mentioned so far is the cable storage under the boot floor. It’s a really practical size for daily use

Nissan Qashqai HAVING covered more than 10,000 miles in our Qashqai, web producer Pete Baiden is starting to appreciate its charms as a practical family car. One of the things that has really impressed him is the fact that the rear doors open to 85 degrees. That may seem trivial on paper, but Pete finds it just makes life easier when you’ve got two young children using the car. It’s especially useful because Pete’s 22-month-old daughter, Matilda, is at the age where she wants to do everything by herself – and that includes getting in and out of the car without any assistance. If you try to pick her up, the screams can be heard a good couple of miles away! Although it’s quite a climb into the back of the Qashqai, Matilda is able to do it by herself simply because the doors open so wide. Pete also finds it comes in useful when he’s strapping his children into the car seats. With the Nissan’s door open as wide as possible, he feels like he’s almost in the car with them, so there’s no need to stoop down or stretch his arms to get the job done.

Worn out Our Alfa’s front tyres betray the car’s aggressive set-up

WE DON’T The Lexus’s infotainment system is the UX’s weakest point. It’s fiddly to use, thanks to a touchpad interface that just isn’t suited to a car

bright sun made the cabin really hot. We wanted to turn on the air-con, but were conscious of the effect it could have on the range. I have to say that sticking an extra layer on in the winter is easier than coping with a hot cabin in the summer. We really will be sorry to see the Lexus go; it’s not only been really comfortable to drive both in town and on our trips up and down the motorway, but it’s also given us confidence in running an EV without home charging. Even my electric-sceptic husband was mostly won over; as we completed our last trip back from the coast, he declared it the best he’d experienced. We left with 92 per cent charge and a predicted 179 miles of range, and with no stops, we arrived home, 100 miles later, with 76 miles remaining.

www.autoexpress.co.uk

WE DON’T The Lexus still uses a CHAdeMO charging port. There are fewer public points with this tech than CCS, and the ultrarapid chargers can’t be used

Verdict THE switch to all-electric motoring without a home wallbox does require some compromises, but the UX 300e has still acquitted itself well. Sort out the infotainment and you’d have a compelling urban runabout here.

INDEX Alfa Romeo Giulia TYRES are key to any car’s performance, and when they’re worn down to the canvas – as they are on associate editor Sean Carson’s Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio – they’re not working to the best of their ability. Sean only found out after turning the Alfa’s rack to full lock for a photoshoot. He’d completed around 750 miles in it since taking delivery, so the tyres must have been worn already. But it shows how aggressive the Alfa’s alignment is to create its ultra-alert front end. The Quadrifoglio wears special Pirelli P Zero Corsa tyres, but with none in stock nationwide and a backorder time of three months, he had to settle for a set of standard P Zeros. It meant the Alfa was roadworthy once again, but it’s obvious that the new tyres don’t quite have the same bite at the extreme end of their operating window as the standard-fit items.

RING FEELS THE POWER WITH NEW CHARGERS NEW PRODUCT Ring jump starters

Price: from £84.99 Contact: ringautomotive.com

THERE are two new options from Ring for drivers who want to put a little insurance against flat batteries in their glovebox. The firm has launched two jump starters that can also be used to revive phones and tablets. Both units have lithium cobalt batteries with PD30W, a feature that enables rapid charging of suitable devices, including Apple, Android, Samsung and Google products. The function works via USB-C and assesses how much power

Speedy

Both chargers feature PD30W, which allows fast charging of suitable devices

each device can take, up to 30 Watts. The chargers come with Type C and Type-A USB cables. A micro USB lead charges a device in three hours, or just one hour with PD30W. Both units also have an LED torch with SOS function, a four-stage battery state indicator, and a safe connection system. The latter protects against reverse polarity and short circuits, and has anti-spike protection. The range starts with the RPPL260 (£84.99), which is designed for smaller vehicles, including motorcycles. Its 200amp output can start petrol engines up to 4.0 litres or 2.0-litre diesels. The £99.99 RPPL360’s 300-amp output is good for up to 6.0-litre petrol and 3.0-litre diesel engines.

Q

How can I boost headlights?

A

YOU’RE right – HID upgrades will fail a MoT and replacing halogen with LED is illegal. Make sure the lenses are clean and clear, get the alignment checked, then swap to one of the bulbs offering up to 200 per cent extra light. Our choice would be a pair from Osram, Philips or Ring.

Q

Must all tyres be the same?

A

THE MoT has no requirement for the tyres to be the same brand or speed rating as long as they are what is required for the car, or higher. The wisdom of driving on different tyres with varying performance, age and tread depth, particularly in the wet, is another matter. Our advice would be to replace them all with one model of tyre to ensure equal performance all round.

Q

Am I using clay bar properly?

A

IT sounds like your paint has been marred or lightly scratched by the clay, which is an abrasive. Try using a finer grade of clay and make sure you use plenty of lubricant. A specialist lube or car shampoo in water work well. You could also use a chemical decontaminant first to cut the risk of dragging particles across paint. Correct any marring by polishing it using a machine or by hand.

I DRIVE a lot at night and want to improve my car’s headlights. What’s the best way to do this, because I believe HID and LED swaps aren’t legal? John Jones, E-mail

MY neighbour has bought a used car with a recent MoT, but with four different brands of tyre fitted and two speed ratings. Can a car pass the MoT with tyres like this? Paul Pearce, E-mail

I USED a clay bar for the first time a few weeks ago and it seemed to take a bit of the shine off my car’s paintwork. Is this correct, or have I done something wrong? Mike Young, E-mail

New card-free cam promises an easier life for its users NEW PRODUCT

MIOFIVE 4K dash cam Price: £149.99 Contact: amazon.co.uk

IF messing around with memory cards is putting you off buying a dash cam, then the latest to arrive in the UK could be for you, because it has built-in storage. The MIOFIVE 4K has 64GB eMMC (embedded multimedia card) storage, which the firm says lasts 10 times longer than external cards, as well as having faster reading and writing speeds. The cam also differs from most rivals by including an AI Stop and Go feature, which alerts drivers if they fail to move when the vehicle in front drives away at traffic lights. MIOFIVE is part of the Cruise Cloud Technology Corporation smart car networking company, and the firm has dealt with the essentials by installing a Sony IMX 415 sensor, which delivers 4K UHD footage at 30 frames per second. The viewing angle through the seven lenses working at F1.8 is 140 degrees. Footage can be viewed on the 2.2-inch display plus there’s Sony Starvis Night

BUILT-IN

Footage is kept in cam’s own 64GB storage, and it can be viewed using the 2.2-inch display or via an app

Vision for high-resolution recording in low light. It uses the MIOFIVE app for iOS and Android devices, which works over 5GHz WiFi and allows footage to be viewed and stored on a smartphone. The app can also live stream from the cam and can create driving reports and show the route taken. Plus, GPS monitors the time, speed and position, which are key for insurance evidence.

VOLVO has made life easier for drivers of its electric and plug-in hybrid cars by including the Plugsurfing platform into its own app. This allows users to make use of 270,000 points across Europe from several networks. Drivers can activate and pay for the chargers within the app, streamlining the process and hopefully meaning that drivers don’t need to maintain multiple subscriptions. Plugsurfing will be integrated into the Volvo Cars app this year – owners just need to keep the app updated to enjoy the benefits.

FIAT has teamed up with JBL audio and opera legend Andrea Bocelli to fit a new premium sound system to the Fiat 500 EV. The 500 La Prima by Bocelli claims to deliver a “one-of-akind” experience with cutting-edge tech that lets you experience music as if it were being played in a recording studio, an open-air arena, an opera house or even just in front of you. The stereo is specially tuned for EV motoring because, without engine noise, shortcomings in audio are more obviously exposed. The Fiat 500 La Prima by Bocelli is available now.

NEW PRODUCT Sealey LED/Bulb Head Torch with Auto Sensor HT104R

Essential Buyer’s Guide: Ford Mustang 3rd Generation

Price: £22.45 Power: Li-Poly, 1.2Ah Rating: Contact: 01284 757500, sealey.co.uk

SEALEY’S new torch is a hybrid, combining a 5W COB LED front strip light with a 3W LED side torch. It wasn’t IP certified, but it felt like it would cope with typical misuse. We liked the rechargeable battery and its packaging within the side torch. The on/off switch toggles through 100 and 30 per cent modes, producing 350/105 and 120/36 lumens respectively. The auto sensor worked well, but was easy to turn off accidentally, while the strip gave an impressively wide beam and it reached about eight metres. We were less taken with the side lamp, which caused glare in the right eye, especially if glasses were worn.

Dave Smith (Veloce Publishing, veloce.co.uk) Price: £14.99 Rating:

DON’T want to pay the earth for a classic Mustang? More modern editions are coming into their own, but buying an 1980s American car can be a fraught process. This book gives a good grounding, but doesn’t go into great depth. Still, it’s a decent companion if you’re going to see your first car.

Sealey looks to outshine our Nightsearcher champ Dave Pollard

FAST-developing battery and LED technology has seen a steady stream of rechargeable inspection lamps and head torches hitting the accessory shop shelves and online retailers. One of the latest additions is an innovative new head torch from Sealey. Does it move the sector forward? To find out, we put the HT104R up against our current test favourite, NightSearcher’s ZOOM 580R. We used them both under

the bonnet and around the garage as well as outside. We compared the performance both close-up and at a distance and logged the various functions such as light modes, auto on/off, IP certification against moisture/ dust ingress, and battery runtime. There was much to commend the Sealey and it was reasonably priced, but the glare from the 3W beam was irritating and it lacked a zoom or tilt function, leaving the Nightsearcher in top spot.

BEST BUY Nightsearcher ZOOM 580R Rechargeable Spot-to-Flood Head Torch Price: £37.99 Power: Li-Poly, 0.8Ah Rating: Contact: 02392 389774, nightsearcher.com

OUR current champion offers five modes – a max of 580 lumens, a mid-range 270, 30 for close work, a 10-lumen warm white for reading, and an emergency flashing white. It was certainly efficient, managing a claimed 2.5 hours at the max setting and 5.3 in the 270-lumen mode. And, if the rechargeable unit does go flat, it’ll take conventional AAA batteries. The wide-to-spot zoom and 90 degree tilt beam adjustment are excellent features, which we could combine with the power modes to get exactly what was required. Despite this, it weighs just 107g and was always comfortable. It’s a jack-of-all-trades that masters them all and tops it off with IP64 moisture/ dust certification and a five-year warranty.

CORDLESS PRESSURE WASHERS We turn up the pressure on six washers to find out which is king of the cordless cleaners

PRODUCTGROUP TEST 1|6|2022

Every week, we extensively test all the latest car kit from tyres to trim cleaners. Log on to autoexpress.co.uk to look through our huge online test archive

Tom Barnard

MOST enthusiasts will love washing their pride and joy. Besides making the car look its best, it lets you check for damage and nip any potential problems in the bud. A pressure washer makes the job much easier, and applying snow foam followed by a blast of water is far less damaging to the paint than using a bucket and sponge. But there are times when you just might not be able to access a hose and power. Luckily, pressure washers have gone cordless – and tapless as well. A new generation of battery-powered machines can take water from any source and turn it into a cleaning jet or blanket of foam. Which cleaned up in our test?

How we tested them

FOLLOWING the instructions, we fully charged the batteries and fed water to the washers, either from a bucket or the integral tanks. We then tried the jets on a car, including snow foam if an attachment was included. We checked the life of the batteries, ease of use, power and value for money. Prices were taken from online sources at the time of writing and include the cost of a battery and charger. The power packs for some of the machines can be shared with other power tools, which can help spread the cost.

Draper D20 20V Cordless Pressure Washer Price: £109.98 Flow: 2.0 litres/min Rating: Contact: drapertools.com

BEST BUY

DRAPER’S D20 washer is by far the simplest here to use. Charge the battery, put the six-metre hose into the nearest water source, add the lance and you’re cleaning. Like most mains-powered machines, the nozzle’s head twists to vary the flow from a blast to a softer fan. It has a decent kick to it in the strongest jet, although the wider setting is a little dribbly. The D20 package includes a snow foam attachment, too, which was remarkably effective and easy to fit. This, and the overall value, are enough for it to take the top spot here.

Titan TTI855PRW

Price: £114.99 Flow: 2.0 litres/min Rating: Contact: screwfix.com

RECOMMENDED WE are big fans of Titan’s corded pressure washers and were also impressed by this cordless machine. It has a nozzle with five different ‘click’ settings, ranging from a plant-watering gentle flow to a pin jet. It’s not as powerful as a mains unit, but should be good enough for most car-cleaning jobs. The Titan’s main advantage over the Draper and Worx washers is its 5.0Ah battery, which is more than double the capacity of its rivals. If you need to clean more than one car or want to blast an entire driveway, this will mean you won’t need a long break while the battery charges.

2022

Bosch Fontus

Price: £209.99 Flow: 3.1 litres/min Rating: Contact: bosch-diy.com

RECOMMENDED THE neatly packaged Bosch is about the size of a carry-on suitcase, and incorporates a water tank and a handy compartment to store the two supplied attachments. Unlike its rivals, the hose nozzle is pistolsized rather than a long lance. The four spray patterns vary from a gentle shower to rinse or water plants, up to a powerful jet for blasting dirt. You can also click a brush attachment to the front of the nozzle to scrub surfaces. It’s all mounted on wheels, which is handy because the 15-litre tank will need refilling before you finish a car clean or drain the 2.5Ah battery.

PRODUCTS Cordless pressure washers

Worx WG620E 20V Hydroshot

Price: £107.98 Flow: 2.0 litres/min Rating: Contact: toolstation.com

THERE’S a lot to like about the Worx, even before you look at the price. Like the Titan, it has a nozzle with five settings, allowing you to choose between different types of jet in the same way as shower heads in a posh hotel. We were pleasantly surprised by the lance’s highquality brass connections, and the clip to hold the six-metre-long hose into a bucket. It’s light to hold, too, making it easier to use on high-up jobs, such as cleaning a 4x4’s roof. On the downside, the Worx just didn’t seem to have the cleaning kick of its competitors, and lacks the soap bottle of the similarly priced Draper or the big battery of the Titan.

Makita DHW080 18Vx2

Price: £559.95 (with batteries) Flow: 5.5 litres/min Rating: Contact: makitauk.com

THE Makita is the only washer here that gets close to matching the cleaning punch of a mains-powered machine, with a flow rate that is around the same as a budget plug-in cleaner. The secret to this is a bank of two 18V batteries, which can be borrowed or shared with other power tools to keep the cost lower. The DHW080 has its own water tank that doubles as a storage case. The tank holds 50 litres, but is hard to move when full. If you really need to blast away dirt in the wild then the Makita will work hard, but it’s excessive for the average DIYer at this price.

Greenworks 60V Cordless Pressure Washer

Price: £319.98 (including 2.0Ah battery and charger) Flow: 3.3 litres/min Rating: Contact: greenworkstools.co.uk

IF you need a little more punch, the Greenworks offers a useful power upgrade compared with the cheaper washers, with a decent blast on offer. It sits inside a bucket-like tank when stored, but this then clips on top of the machine and feeds up to 20 litres of water. It’s a clever idea and works well, although there is nowhere to store the hose or lance after use. The battery can be used with other power tools, which might help justify the substantial investment – a 2.0Ah battery alone costs more than our best-buy cordless pressure washer.

Verdict MOST of us will happily use a cordless drill or other battery tool without missing mains power. But all of these cordless cleaners will be outgunned by a sub-£100 pressure washer that you can plug in to a mains electricity socket and water tap. If you don’t have that luxury available, then the Draper is the best compromise between price, power and features for anyone washing a car. The Titan is close behind, thanks to its big battery, while the Bosch is a high-quality choice with a bit more punch. 1. Draper D20 20V Cordless Pressure Washer 2. Titan TTI855PRW 3. Bosch Fontus

Q

Liability worries relating to car’s self-parking tech I RECENTLY took delivery of a secondgeneration Nissan Leaf and found that it has a self-parking function. As clever as it is, I’m worried that if it caused my car to hit another vehicle, I’d still be at fault. Is this the case? PL, E-mail

Toyota Corolla

YOU TELL US Popular hatchback brings driving fun, but infotainment disappoints

2021 Results

A

ALTHOUGH laws are set to be drawn up for systems that allow motorists to delegate the task of driving to a car with autonomous technology in scenarios such as this, they wouldn’t apply here. Your Leaf’s sensors shouldn’t allow it to hit a car it’s parking itself next to, but if it were to hit a moving vehicle, for example, your insurer would class you as the driver. The self-parking system would be irrelevant.

Q

What’s the score with classic cars entering ULEZs? I’M thinking about buying a car currently owned by a friend of mine. It wouldn’t normally be ULEZ-compliant, but it’s from 1985, so does that mean it’s old enough to qualify for exemption as a classic? Steven Green, E-mail

“ACCELERATION is brisk when needed and the different drive modes are useful. Picks up speed nice and smoothly.”

“SAT-NAV doesn’t recognise some postcodes and won’t display all local roads. Google Maps is much better.”

“Lots of boot space, even without the rear seats down. Can be made bigger easily.”

“The touchscreen is laggy and difficult to operate, especially while driving.”

“Requires no effort to drive – I always arrive at my destination feeling fresh and relaxed.”

“Infotainment system has broken and needed to be repaired twice.”

“Driver’s seat offers a good range of adjustment and heats effectively in the winter.”

“It’s hard to check the nearside when changing lanes – big blind spot.”

“Fuel economy is excellent – I regularly achieve in excess of 70mpg on journeys.”

“Controls for everything seem fiddly and overcomplicated. Too easy to make mistakes.”

“Incredibly smooth ride makes long trips much easier.”

“Door pockets are small, with very few other storage areas.”

“Not had a single problem or glitch – totally reliable.”

“CVT gearbox makes an unpleasant whine.”

A

THE London ULEZ (ultra-low emission zone) exemption for historic vehicles requires the model to have been built more than 40 years ago. Therefore only cars from 1982 or earlier are exempt at present. This moves on a rolling basis, however, so the car you’re thinking of buying will be exempt from 2025 (unless the rules change before then). It’s up to you whether you risk buying it now.

Q

Franchise service was uncalled for – what do I do? MY car went into a franchised dealer for some recall work. When I went to pick it up, it had been serviced without my permission. I paid up, but in hindsight it wasn’t good value. Can I get my money back? Name withheld, E-mail

A

IF you didn’t give permission for your car to be serviced, then you are not obliged to pay for this to be done. It would have been easier if you had refused at the garage, but you can still lodge a formal complaint in writing and ask for a refund.

WHEN it comes to thinking outside the box, Citroen has a long and rich history of doing things differently. So when it thought up the van-derived people-carrier that was the original Berlingo in 1996, we shouldn’t have been surprised. Within a year, Renault had retaliated with the Kangoo, and the van-based MPV soon took off – more so in Europe than in the UK, though, because we’re less keen on utilitarian transport. But for those who wanted something cheap, comfy and practical, there was little that could touch the Berlingo. A second generation arrived in 2008, with an all-new model appearing a decade later.

History

THE third-generation Citroen Berlingo went on sale in July 2018 in Feel and Flair trims and five-seat M and seven-seat XL editions, with the latter being 35cm longer. There was one 1.2-litre PureTech threecylinder petrol engine with 109bhp or 128bhp, with six-speed manual and eightspeed automatic transmissions respectively. Diesel fans could buy a 1.5-litre BlueHDi with 74bhp, 99bhp or 128bhp. The first two were available only with a manual gearbox, but the BlueHDi 130 could be bought with a sixspeed manual or eight-speed automatic. All engines were offered with the Berlingo M, but the BlueHDi 75 wasn’t available in XL form. In June 2019 Citroen added Flair XTR trim, but only with the BlueHDi 100 and 130 engines. The Rip Curl special edition of December 2020 came with BlueHDi 100 or PureTech 130 powerplants. It didn’t feature any extra standard equipment and was available only with white paint (grey or

NEED TO KNOW SAFETY tech was highlighted by Citroen, but much of it was extra or only on top-spec models. AEB and speed-limit recognition were standard; adaptive cruise and high-beam assist were options.

en Berlingo Storage The Flair XTR gets a panoramic glass roof and Modutop. The latter is an internal roof storage system, but XL editions didn’t get it, only the M.

www.autoexpress.co.uk/driver-power NO Citroens appeared in the 2021 Driver Power new-car survey, but the previous year saw four in the top 75: Grand C4 SpaceTourer (28th), C3 Aircross (66th), C1 (72nd) and C4 Cactus (73rd). The Berlingo sells in too low volumes to appear, but Citroens in general sit in the lower half of the rankings. In our brands survey, Citroen finished in 18th place out of 33 companies represented, putting it above premium firms such as MINI, Mercedes, BMW and (just) Volkswagen.

YOUR VIEW MARK Pollard from Cambridge owns a 2019 Berlingo BlueHDi 130 auto Flair. He comments: “Compared with my previous Berlingo Mk2, it’s a huge improvement. It’s far better to drive, the interior design is more intelligent and I never get less than 40mpg. I was aiming to sell it after three years, but Citroen has gone EV-only with the Berlingo, so I’ll keep mine for a while – it’s too usable to replace it with anything else.”

FROM £16,000 Van-based MPV offers loads of space and is surprisingly good to drive, too Expert’s verdict Tristan Shale-Hester Deputy consumer editor

IF you want a highly capable MPV, you can’t go wrong with a Citroen Berlingo. It’s a huge amount of car for the money and it’s not bad to drive, either – long motorway journeys can be undertaken in comfort. Practicality is also exceptionally strong, as one would expect. The van-like looks won’t be for everyone, of course, and the Berlingo’s shape makes it subject to a fair amount of wind noise. We also recommend the automatic transmission over the clunky manual.

DETAILS Alloy wheels were fitted to higher-spec versions of the Berlingo, and help give the exterior a lift. Twin-headlight design is a Citroen styling cue, and features LED daytime running lights

CITROEN achieved a disappointing 28th in the 2021 Driver Power brands survey, with 23 per cent of owners experiencing a fault of some description. Check the service and MoT history of any Berlingo you look at.

AROUND £16,000 nets an early 60k-mile Berlingo. Just one in 10 cars is petrol; the cheapest one we found was a 2018, 30k-mile Flair M for £17,500. One in seven cars is an XL edition, and these start from around £19,000. Feel and Flair are equally popular and account for more than 70 per cent of cars. Flair XTR makes up the rest – we didn’t find a single Rip Curl. Nearly every e-Berlingo was either unregistered or an ex-demo, and some dealers are already offering discounts of up to £3,500 on them, while others are asking above list for used cars, so shop around.

BlueHDis and e-Berlingos need servicing every two years/ 25k miles, although the latter should have an inspection every 12 months or 12,500 miles. The intervals for PureTech models built up to Nov 2019 are every year or 16k miles; after that the limit was reduced to 12,500 miles. The schedule runs interim/main/interim/major for PureTech and BlueHDi cars. The interim is an inspection and fluid top-up. You can choose between pattern parts (£189) and genuine parts (£199). The main service is priced at £219 or £249; a new pollen filter is included. The major service includes a new air filter and a fuel filter (diesel) or spark plugs (petrol). Dealers charge £309 or £369 for a major BlueHDi service, but PureTech models are priced at £339 or £399. The e-Berlingo alternates between interim and main services, at £70 and £229. Fresh brake fluid is required every two years (£65). Every six years or 62,500 miles, the petrol unit has a cambelt change, which costs £569, or £449 with pattern parts.

THIS is one of the Berlingo’s highlights. Whether you buy a five or seven-seat version, you’ll have masses of carrying capacity: 775 or 1,050 litres respectively with the back seats in place, and 3,500 or 4,000 litres with them folded. Versatility is superb, with the XL capable of swallowing loads up to three metres long thanks to a folding front seat. There’s lots of head and legroom for five occupants, too, although the seven-seater is a bit tighter in the rearmost row. The eight-inch touchscreen infotainment system that came standard with the Berlingo looks smart enough, but the controls are a bit fiddly.

Recalls CITROEN has recalled the third-generation Berlingo seven times. The first two campaigns were in April 2019, one for a faulty part in the handbrake mechanism, the other for a plastic component within the exhaust which could damage the diesel particulate filter. Two more recalls came in November and December 2019, the first because of faulty seatbelts and the second because of faulty steering columns. A recall was issued in February 2020 because the urea injector for the AdBlue system could become blocked. Sub-standard tie rods in the front suspension were the reason behind recall number six in July 2020, then in January 2021 came the most recent campaign, because the timing belt could break up, leading to the brake servo being damaged.

black were extra-cost options) along with unique decals and interior details. From October 2021 Rip Curl replaced Flair trim. In January 2022, all petrol and diesel Berlingos went off sale, with only a fully electric version available. The e-Berlingo has a 134bhp electric motor and is fitted with a 50kWh battery for a claimed range of up to 177 miles. There were still M and XL editions, both available in Feel and Flair XTR trims.

Which one?

THE BlueHDi makes the most sense. It’s the most readily available, the most frugal, the cheapest to buy and also has the longest range. It also has plenty of torque, so whether you’re loaded up or towing, it makes the lightest work of long-distance journeys. The PureTech editions are good to drive and reasonably cost-effective to buy, but you’ll pay more to run one, thanks to reduced fuel economy. The e-Berlingo is much more expensive, but running costs will be lower, although a real-world range of 140-150 miles might be a problem for some. Even the entry-level Berlingo Feel is pretty well equipped. As standard, Citroen fitted an eight-inch touchscreen, DAB radio, Android

www.autoexpress.co.uk

INFOTAINMENT Eight-inch touchscreen sits on top of the dashboard, but it’s not the most intuitive system to use Auto and Apple CarPlay, air-con, cruise control, electric front windows, rear parking sensors and auto emergency braking. The Feel also came with 16-inch steel wheels and pop-out rear side windows. Flair added electric windows and privacy glass, power-folding door mirrors, an autodimming rear-view mirror and 16-inch alloys. The Flair XTR featured a head-up display, a rear camera and 17-inch wheels.

Alternatives

THE Peugeot Rifter and Vauxhall Combo Life are effectively the Berlingo rebadged, with similar engines, specs and prices. Launched in 2014, the Ford Tourneo Connect is good to drive, roomy, well made and versatile, with a choice of efficient petrol or diesel engines. Also take a look at the Volkswagen Caddy, the latest version of which was launched in 2021. Based on the same platform as the Golf, it’s dynamically very capable, well made, looks smart and has plenty of versatile space.

Verdict

THE third-generation Berlingo is genuinely plush if you buy towards the top of the range. It’s better to drive and built to a higher standard than ever, and with only electric powertrains available from 2022, the earlier petrol and diesel models could be a good investment for the next few years.

Car Hunter £18,000 to buy a sporty drop-top for the summer months THE ATHLETIC CHOICE

Mazda MX-5 FOR: Sprightly engine, engaging chassis, pleasant cabin AGAINST: Small boot, tight interior proportions THE current MX-5 maintains a compact footprint and is lighter than its predecessor. It looks attractive without drawing attention, but out on the road, the MX-5 will leave an impression. Rifling through the tactile manual gearbox musters enough performance from the revvy engine, and the compliant suspension means an MX-5 isn’t tense or fidgety over bumps; only the worst imperfections send a jolt through the cabin. The controls are well weighted, precise and let you easily enjoy the playful chassis. A 2018, 8,000-mile 2.0-litre MX-5 costs £18,000.

THE INDIVIDUALIST’S CHOICE

Fiat 124 Spider FOR: Fun to drive, torquey engine, rare sight on the road AGAINST: Divisive looks, pricier to buy than the MX-5 WHILE the Fiat 124 Spider shares many of its mechanicals with the MX-5, it draws heavily from the original 124 Spider with its cab-rear proportions, flat bonnet and wide-set headlights. The Spider delivers much of what we love about the MX-5, but with a turbo twist. It’s lithe and precise, but the 124 prefers a slightly more laid-back driving style. Extra torque from the 1.4-litre engine means you don’t need to work the gears to go quickly, but doing so remains a joy. The ride is slightly more composed, too. A 10,000-mile 2018 car dips below £18,000.

THE PRACTICAL CHOICE

MINI Cooper S FOR: Punchy performance, nimble handling, practicality AGAINST: Firm ride, not as special as rivals THE MINI Cooper S Convertible might seem compromised next to purpose-built roadsters, but it packs a bigger punch than the Mazda or Fiat. While it’s not as eye-catching, the Cooper S gets beefier bumpers, twin-exit exhausts and a bonnet scoop to mark it out from other MINIs. Its gutsy 2.0-litre turbocharged engine, quick steering and firmer chassis make the Cooper S especially entertaining on a B-road. The tradeoff is a busy ride on uneven roads, and its twoseat rivals here are more playful at the limit. You can buy a 13,000-mile, 68-plate Cooper S Convertible for £18,000.

THE Mazda MX-5 has long been the default choice for a purpose-made, affordable sports convertible, and the latest ND generation is arguably the best yet. The four-cylinder motor is willing, the manual gearbox snappy and the rearwheel-drive chassis makes it fun to drive. Fiat’s 124 Spider shares its platform with the MX-5. The retro styling cues won’t be to all tastes, but the 124 adds turbocharging to the mix, with

its 1.4-litre MultiAir engine. This could give the Spider a punchier feel on the road. For a different proposition, there’s the MINI Cooper S Convertible. Its front-driven chassis and hatchback silhouette may not be as exotic as its rivals’, but MINIs have a habit of extracting fun from humble underpinnings, and this model is no exception. With 189bhp, it’s actually the most powerful of this trio, but is it the best used buy?

Dear Yousuf, I’m after a sub-60,000-mile sporty convertible for the summer, no more than five years old. What does £18k buy? Isaac Roberts, E-mail

Contact: Yousuf_Ashraf@autovia.co.uk

PRACTICALITY isn’t the strong suit of many twoseat convertibles, but the MX-5 is still usable. Just. Larger adults won’t find the interior particularly accommodating, but it’s roomy enough. What may be more of a concern is the small 130-litre boot; the MINI is a more versatile option. Nevertheless, the

Mazda’s cabin is well made and easy on the eye, with a stylish dash architecture and flashes of body colour on the door tops. The driving position is suitably sporty, too, with low-slung seating and a thin-rimmed steering wheel. The stubby gearlever provides a positive, mechanical shift action.

DISAPPOINTINGLY, Fiat didn’t lavish much attention on the 124 Spider’s interior. It’s well built and stylish, but there’s almost nothing to differentiate it from the MX-5’s, save for a new steering wheel hub, altered door panels and fresh trims. The logical layout, highquality switchgear and solid feel are at least carried

over, and sat-nav is also available through the dashmounted touchscreen on higher-spec cars. The cabin is cosy, but there’s enough space for two adults and a few useful storage cubbies. The longer rear overhang gives 10 litres of extra boot capacity over the MX-5, and the roof doesn’t eat into that space when stowed.

BEING derived from a hatchback, the MINI Cooper S Convertible claws back ground in terms of practicality compared with rivals in this test. It’s the only car of this trio that can seat four passengers, although the rear bench is pretty tight for anyone who actually tries to use it. It serves as a useful storage area, though, and the 215-litre boot is easily the biggest

in this company. The interior quality is stand-out, too; the materials used throughout are plush and there’s a smattering of quirky details, such as toggle switches and an illuminating ring in the middle of the dashboard. The infotainment system is derived from parent company BMW’s iDrive software, and is one of the slickest of its kind on the market.

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 £2,365 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:

WILL IT FIT? Is your garage big enough? Our measurements show the length and width of each model, but remember estate and performance variants may be bigger. DRIVER POWER POSITION: Auto Express’s survey canvasses results from tens of thousands of motorists. Models are rated by drivers, then ranked against others on sale in the UK. The lower the number, the higher the score a model achieved.

INSURANCE: Group rating as quoted by the Association of British Insurers. WARRANTY: Next to each manufacturer’s name is the basic warranty period in months and miles for the mechanicals, corrosion and paintwork. EVs and hybrids will have dedicated battery cover. LIST PRICE: This is the on-the-road figure and includes VAT, delivery to dealer, 12 months’ road tax, number plates and first registration. EVs do not include the Plug-in Car Grant.

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/EMISSIONS/RANGE: Combined WLTP economy in miles per gallon, emissions in grams per kilometre of CO2 and maximum claimed range for EVs. Figures are achieved in the latest WLTP tests, but will vary according to equipment and are unlikely to be representative of everyday efficiency.

THIS weekend sees the Formula E circus hit the streets of Jakarta in Indonesia for the first time ever. Following a false start in 2020, when the date was cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the race also marks the return of an FIA-sanctioned motorsport event in Indonesia for the first time since the A1 GP championship visited the country 16 years ago. Located in the Ancol coastal area towards the north of Jakarta, the new circuit is a purpose-built layout, with 18 turns on its 1.47-mile lap. Following an announcement that the race in Vancouver will no longer go ahead, the 2021/22 season is now beyond the halfway mark – and following a doubleheader at the Berlin E-Prix, last year’s World Championship winning Mercedes-EQ Formula E team has increased its grip on both titles once again. Stoffel Vandoorne left Germany with a 12-point advantage in

the driver’s standings; his pair of thirdplace finishes resulted in a six-point net gain, despite a phenomenal performance from title rival Edoardo Mortara. The Rokit Venturi driver took pole position and victory in a tense first race of the weekend after overcoming a close battle with Vandoorne, DS Techeetah driver Jean-Eric Vergne and Porsche’s André Lotterer, with all four drivers fighting over the top four positions. Mortara followed up his win with second place in the second event of the round, which took place on a reversed layout of the Tempelhof Airport circuit. With the second race allowing drivers to use Attack Mode only once – but for eight minutes at a time – it reduced the tactical element to making the most of the 47bhp power boost, which is activated by running off line through a special zone and potentially losing track position to competitors. As a result, the race was a little more of a procession than the first. The eventual winner was Vandoorne’s team-mate and reigning Formula E champ Nick de Vries. The race was won for the Dutchman by making an audacious

move down the inside into turn one on the first lap, in which he passed both Mortara and Envision driver Robin Frijns. The final lap threw up excitement behind the Mercedes drivers and Mortara, when sixth-placed Frijns clipped Antonio Felix Da Costa, sending the Portuguese driver sideways at high speed – and somehow catching the slide before heading nose-first into the barrier. Vandoorne’s 111-point haul is a result of impressive consistency; he has five podiums

out of eight races so far this season – more than any other driver. Following the second Berlin race, he said. “That was an excellent race for us. It was a little less action-packed for me than yesterday, but still, it’s great to be back on the podium.” Mortara’s excellent Berlin weekend jumped him to second in the standings on 99 points, and four points clear of Vergne. Mercedes-EQ heads up the teams standings on 176 points, ahead of Rokit Venturi Racing on 148 points.

F1 teams consider regional calendar

r Formula E season WRC crews face tough Italian test ROUND five of the World Rally Championship takes place from 2 June, with the 19th running of the Rally Sardegna. The terrain of the Italian island will provide a tough test for the drivers; speeds on the loose surfaces are high, and the narrow stages require intense concentration. This year’s title leader is more than up for the challenge, though. Kalle Rovanperä comes to Italy following three straight WRC wins; the top step of the podium has only eluded him in Monte Carlo so far this year. Last time out in Portugal, the Finn finished 15.2 seconds clear of his Toyota Gazoo Racing WRC team-mate Elfyn Evans, who was over two minutes clear of Dani Sordo in the Hyundai i20. Rovanperä is romping away with this year’s title race, already sitting on 106 points – well clear of second-placed Thierry Neuville. The Hyundai driver suffered reliability problems in Portugal, and has scored only 60 points.

OUT FRONT

After three straight wins, Toyota’s Kalle Rovanperä (far right, with co-driver Jonne Halttunen) leads WRC title race

FORMULA One teams have backed the possibility of adjusting the calendar to sort races into more regionalised groupings, according to reports. Outliers such as the Miami Grand Prix – a flyaway race between two European rounds – might soon be slipped into the calendar closer to other North American races, while the same could happen for Asian and European rounds, too. Some teams are fighting spiralling inflation plus increased energy and logistics costs alongside a budget cap that came into force at the start of the 2022 season – and which will tighten further over the coming years – and they are concerned about struggling financially. A streamlined calendar could help that issue, as well as boosting the sport’s environmental sustainability.

Raikkonen in NASCAR race at Watkins Glen KIMI Raikkonen’s retirement from motorsport hasn’t lasted long. The 2007 Formula One world champion (below) has confirmed that he will make his return to racing in NASCAR. The Finn will get behind the wheel of the Trackhouse Racing Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 at Watkins Glen on August 21. “Hopefully it’s a good race and good fun,” Kimi said, during the announcement. “Obviously it’s new cars and I’ve never been at the track, but we’ll figure it out.” Raikkonen already has some NASCAR experience. He dabbled in the sport during his sabbatical from F1 in 2011, competing in one Nationwide Series event and one Truck series race at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

TREAT with caution the often-repeated line that car firms can’t and aren’t making decent profits when building and selling electric vehicles. Largely thanks to the Tesla empire that he rules, Elon Musk was worth approximately £211billion as of May 2022. Yikes! The massively more traditional Porsche/Piech clan (rough estimate of current wealth: £50bn) plus BMW’s Quandt family (nearer £40bn) couldn’t be more different to Musk and the way he does things. Far closer to him in terms of spirit, talent and disruptive powers are people such as Henrik and Geeta Gupta Fisker, who are also keen to challenge the motor industry establishment. True, the former Aston Martin design chief and his entrepreneurial wife look poor by comparison with ‘just’ £1.2bn between them. But don’t Motoring’s most outspoken underestimate this couple and the huge potential for and opinionated columnist sounds off their £35k Fisker Ocean SUV, plus other intriguing EVs. Closer to home, we in Britain have Sir Jim Ratcliffe – our very own £6bn car manufacturing bloke. Well, Should hard-nosed sort of. So far, it’s his Ineos chemical business that’s entrepreneurs become made him rich. And it remains to be seen whether he’ll be profitable with his venture that’ll build seriously wealthy off previous-gen Land Rover lookalikes. Hmmm. the back of heavily In the vehicle import game, Bob Edmiston is still the subsidised public guv’nor. He was the original importer of Hyundais to the UK in the eighties and still ships Subarus and services? I think not. Isuzus here. After donating huge sums to Christian charitable organisations, he’s down to his last £700-odd million these days. But as I discovered when I travelled with him across Korea and later visited him at his UK home, he spends modestly. Another veteran, Gerald Ronson, once the official Lancia importer to Britain, has accumulated similar wealth thanks to his car, fuel station and property interests. On the retailing side, Mohsin and Zuber Issa are brothers who, among other things, distribute fuel to garage forecourts. That’s helped make them almost £5bn. Meanwhile, Geoff Warren of Cargiant has copped £2.5bn by selling overwhelmingly old-school ICE cars. Good luck with telling these three guys that demand for petrol and diesel vehicles is dead. Brian Souter and Ann Gloag of Stagecoach continue to achieve what, to my mind, should surely be unachievable – making big, big money (£700m) out of the allegedly ‘loss-making’ and heavily state-subsidised public transport sector. Chancellor Rishi Sunak (with his wife, worth £730m, incidentally) might like to investigate. And why not? Should such multibillion pound, Government-funded bus and train subsidies really be allowed to assist in making hard-nosed entrepreneurs seriously wealthy from public services? I think not. Enough of the fabulously rich boys and girls, further down the payscale are mere ‘employees’ such as Lewis Hamilton. He’s doing OK with his £300m, but some of the wealthier folk around him are considerably richer for doing far less. With his talent and commitment, Lewis deserves to be a billionaire. But he’ll only be so if he quits driving and starts running his own team – preferably with financial help from car nut Ratcliffe who, frankly, has got more money than he knows what to do with.
