Bentley Continental GT S review: a louder, sportier lux coupe
Isn’t Bentley going electric?
It is, and sooner than plenty of other carmakers. By 2025, Bentley will have launched its first EV. By 2030, its whole range will be electric. Its Crewe factory is already carbon neutral and home – but of course – to 600,000 bees.
The car you’re looking at contains no electric motors. Nor, thankfully, any bees. The Continental GT S is more old-school than that, and perhaps we should see it as a bit of a ‘last blast’ before electrification starts dripping into the Conti range.
What’s its elevator pitch?
It’s a sportier Continental GT. Simple as that. And yet it makes...

2024 Mercedes-AMG S63
Starting at $190.000 est
Highs: Lightning-quick acceleration, opulent interior finishings, handles like a much smaller sedan.
Lows: Short electric-only range, regenerative braking system lacks true one-pedal drive mode, eye-popping price tag.
Verdict: With sports car performance and luxury car comfort, the S63 represents the peak of AMG engineering.
Overview
It missed a year of production, but the AMG S63 supersedan is back in a major way. Making use of the Mercedes-Benz S-class’s seventh-generation architecture, the S63 brings the glitz with more go than ever thanks to a new plug-in hybrid powertrain. Mercedes has dropped t...

Review: Every EV Concern Melts Away in the Rolls-Royce Spectre
Our correspondent spent three days in the half-million-dollar coupe and found out why Rolls-Royce is the ideal brand for electrification
The executives, designers and engineers of Rolls-Royce throughout the years have disapproved of the term “performance” when applied to their elite creations. They leave such a concept to brands they might consider too flashy, proud and noisy, like Ferrari, Lamborghini or Koenigsegg.
Rolls-Royce prefers words and concepts such as “comfort,” “sophistication,” “poise,” “dignity” and “luxury,” all applied to the maximum level in automotive terms. Boasting a...

2024 Rolls-Royce Phantom
Starting at $505.750
Highs: Dramatic arrivals and departures are standard, serenity-now cabin environment, endless customization possibilities.
Lows: So nice to ride in you might prefer it over your jet, finding a good chauffer is so hard these days.
Verdict: The Phantom makes the ultimate luxury statement—and then has the temerity to live up to it.

2024 Porsche 911
Starting at $116.050
Highs: Performance benchmark for many reasons, delicious turbo flat-six powertrains, surprisingly easy to live with daily.
Lows: Interior storage could be more generous, toggle-shaped automatic shifter isn’t that intuitive, six-figure price tag no matter which one you choose.
Verdict: Equal parts sports car and grand tourer, the Porsche 911 comes by its icon status honestly.
Overview
Who would have thought that what started out as a chopped-roof Volkswagen would have the kind of staying power that the Porsche 911 has? The sports car has been a benchmark for performance driving for decades, and it’s not likely to change. That’s be...

Mercedes-Benz CLE Coupe review
“Relaxing to drive but infuriating to operate, the CLE is an old-school coupe spoiled by poorly integrated tech”
Good stuff
Unfussy styling, serenely smooth and quiet to cruise in
Bad stuff
Interior is crying out for common sense buttons. Not as satisfying to drive as a BMW 4 Series
What is it?
A realisation from Mercedes that it was making too many cars that did the same job. A few years ago, if you wanted a Mercedes that comfortably seated two (and occasionally four) people but were allergic to the sensible charms of a C-Class, then you could choose from a CLA/CLA Shooting Brake, a C-Class Coupe, a CLS or an ...

What's New for 2025?
A 493-hp GTS model joins the Cayenne lineup for 2025. This racier variant uses the same twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8 as the Cayenne S but gets a 25-hp power boost. It also inherits some performance-enhancing features from the outrageous Turbo GT model (reviewed separately), including a water-cooled all-wheel drive system and some suspension components designed to improve steering response. The GTS comes standard with the Sport Design package, which adds black exterior trim, dark bronze exhaust tips, and black wheels. Interior flourishes, including GTS logos on the headrest, are also included.

The New BMW X2 Looks Weird And Isn't Fun
At least it has gobs of power and a dual-clutch transmission.
The BMW X2 is a family crossover in a funny hat. For its second generation, the all-new 2024 version puts a jazzy roofline and angry lumps styling on top of a platform shared with the X1. It’s just about as wild looking as a vehicle can be, while still conforming to the standards of the compact SUV segment. With the X2 M35i, you’ll get an extra dash of sportiness to go with that styling—but only a dash.
When the new X2 goes on sale in the US later this year, along with its platform sibling, the all-new Mini Countryman, the X2 will come in two flavors, the base X2 xDrive28i and ...

2024 Rolls-Royce Spectre
Starting at $422.750
Highs: Absolutely silent inside, highest level of fit and finish, makes the same high-end statement as gas-powered Rolls-Royces.
Lows: Less driving range than other high-dollar EVs, road manners a bit on the floaty side, sharp impacts aren't entirely erased by the suspension.
Verdict: Rolls-Royce's first EV is a spectacular one, and proof that even the worlds most luxurious cars are capable of eco-friendly motoring.

2024 Mercedes-AMG GT Coupe

Lows: Snug rear seat space, frustrating infotainment menus, high starting price.
Verdict: The GT Coupe is back and more refined than before, but it's lost some of the flavor of the original recipe.
Overview
The new Mercedes-AMG GT Coupe borrows much of its brains and muscle from the SL roadster. The new GT Coupe is longer, wider, and has a longer wheelbase than before, but the big news is its standard all-wheel-drive system—something the AMG GT has never offered before.

2024 Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class Coupe First Drive Review: Not So Shocking Anymore
More mature and less surprising in for 2024, the swoopy GLC Coupe remains a more likable alternative to the BMW X4 or Audi Q5 Sportback.
I’m afraid the biggest problem for the second-generation Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class Coupe is a thing neither it nor I have any control over: the passage of time. While the German luxury brand is retaining its compact swoopy coupey for the 2024 model year and attaching the same refinements introduced on the closely related C-Class sedan and GLC-Class SUV, this is inherently a less shocking, less interesting vehicle in today’s world.
That’s not Mercedes’ fault...

2024 Audi Q8
Starting at $74.895
Highs: Delivers an entertaining driving experience, cozy as a couch, high-end interior.
Lows: Some stumbles in city driving, sporty shape cuts down on cargo space, not the most fuel-efficient of SUV offerings.
Verdict: As the more stylish take on the three-row Q7, the Q8's smooth ride adds some cool factor.
Overview
With smooth styling with a ride to match, the two-row Audi Q8 is a dramatized version of the boxier Q7 three-row SUV. They both use the same solid underpinnings, including a turbocharged 335-hp V-6 engine, eight-speed automatic, and all-wheel drive, but the Q8's starting price is significantly higher. The Q8's ch...

2024 Land Rover Range Rover

Lows: Priced for the gods, plug-in hybrid limited to Autobiography trim, third-row space is tight.
Verdict: Comfortable enough for a cross-continent tour and rugged enough for a trail ride, the Range Rover is a jack-of-all-trades SUV with a price tag to match.
What's New for 2024?
It's still early in the Range Rover's fifth generation, but already Land Rover has tweaked the powertrain lineup for 2024. The plug-in-hybrid P440e has been replaced with a more powerful P550e which makes 542 horsepower. P400 and ...

With a 603-hp twin-turbo V-8 engine and an AMG-massaged air suspension, the 2024 GLS63 is a luxury SUV for the power-hungry.

Lotus Eletre review
“Though this isn’t a familiar Lotus, the Eletre is a very competent attempt at applying Lotus philosophy to a seemingly incongruous product”
Good stuff
Steering, body control, the way it disguises weight, interior and tech
Bad stuff
Endless noise about not being a ‘proper’ Lotus, initial brake pedal grabbiness, annoying ADAS
What is it?
Mildly controversial in the intellectual bin fire of social media, this. Mainly because ‘this’ is the new Lotus Eletre, and it is essentially everything the internet thinks a Lotus should not be; an electric SUV with fat skeins of technology woven through it.
It’s also produced in Wuhan, China, which seems to provoke a strange kind of wrinkle in some people’s foreheads that suggests this final piece of ...

Avatr 12 launched in China with 578 hp for 41,265 USD
The Avatr 12 electric hatchback from Changan, Huawei, and CATL launched in China. It is available in three trim levels, starting at 300,800 yuan (41,265 USD). It has up to 578 hp, a 700-km range, 27 speakers, and an air suspension.
Avatr was initially founded by Changan New Energy and Nio in 2018. Later, Nio distanced from the JV due to financial reasons. CATL replaced it in the joint project. Changan owns 40% of the shares, while CATL holds over 17%. The rest belongs to various investment funds. In this project, Huawei acts as the leading supplier.

Here's a new generation of the Porsche Panamera. As before it's a slinky-looking front-engined sports car with space for four adults, and a decent hatchback boot. What's new is a body redesign and an astonishing active – not adaptive, active – suspension system on the Turbo E-Hybrid.

BMW i5 M60 review: quite simply the best electric M car yet
What have we got here then?
This is a 593bhp amuse-bouche; a 605lb ft canape served before the supper and pudding combo that is the fully new, partially hybrid M5 and M5 Touring due in 2024. Launched alongside the standard i5 exec saloon, the M60 is - for now - the most agitating 5 Series you can lay your hands on.
Not that it comes across as an outer lane bully, actually. Dare I say it, this is one of BMW’s less controversial recent designs; certainly it’s the most sorted of the electric M car litter. Remember you’ve got the i4 M50 (weird nose), i7 M70 (squinty headlights) and iX M60 (just no) sharing the stable…

Bad stuff
Harsh four cylinder engine, spongy brakes, tech often overwhelming, no air suspension for UK, price
What is it?
It’s the sixth-generation Mercedes E-Class saloon. Or not, if you want to be pedantic and include the 50-odd years of Merc’s ‘upper mid-range’ history before the E-Class name was coined. In which case you’re looking at more than 16 million sales and a longer origin story than some religi...

Lows: Tiny fuel tank, suffers from loud road noise, very few options.
Verdict: The Civic Type R pairs well with track days, short commutes, and childhood tuner-car dreams.

Fun is what the Honda Civic Type R feasts on. Intended as much for storming race tracks as for road driving, this heavily dramatized version of the standard Civic hatchback is offered exclusively with a raucous 315-hp turbocharged inline-four and six-speed manual transmission.

Once a niche automaker catering exclusively to sports-car buyers, Porsche has reinvented itself over the past few decades by practically pioneering the performance SUV niche.
