2016 Subaru Levorg 2.0 review
A classic-Liberty sized sports wagon with WRX running gear, the Subaru Levorg will give the VW Golf R wagon a run for its money
Snackable Review: Hyundai Santa Fe
It won’t elicit envious glances from the neighbours, but if you need a sensible way of carting seven then Hyundai’s Santa Fe ticks a lot of boxes.
2015 Volvo V60 D4 Long Term Review
We get our first taste of the Swede life in the V60, a stylish wagon that’s staying on as part of the furniture
2015 Alfa Romeo 4C First Drive Review
Alfa's mid-engine hero is here and it’s a game-changer; the 4C is fast, fabulous and flawed, like all the best supercars.
Skoda Octavia RS review
Is the Czech within swinging distance of a GTI?
2015 Toyota Fortuner review
Toyota brings us a seven-seat, off-road capable wagon that’s based on the Hilux dual-cab ute. Is the Fortuner really an enticing alternative to the Kluger and Prado?
BMW M235i review
Turbo straight-six, rear-drive, tight wheelbase: the M235i is sound in theory, but in practice?
2015 Nissan Navara ST 4x4 First Drive Review
Nissan's new tradie secret is its much improved dual purpose workhorse; steering and handling dynamics not quite there though.
Snackable Review: Lexus IS200t F-Sport
The IS model is the best selling Lexus and the most fun to drive. Even more so now that it comes with a turbocharged engine, part of a mild update to the IS lineup that also includes a fuel-miser hybrid and a faster V6.
2016 DS 5 Blue HDi review
An exquisite interior and smooth diesel engine distinguish the first car from premium Citroen sub-brand DS. How well does the chassis perform in an Australian environment?
Toyota HiLux Video Review
After years of redevelopment, the first all-new Toyota HiLux in a decade has arrived. Toyota has stopped at nothing to make sure it remains Australia’s favourite workhorse.
2015 Jeep Renegade soft-roader review
Jeep has served up another city soft-roader, with a Trailhawk ‘off-road’ version available for the self-delusional, Wheels Magazine reports.
Snackable Review: Jeep Renegade
The Jeep Renegade has finally hit Australian shores. Entering the compact SUV segment, the Renegade is city-chic meets off-road toughness all wrapped up in a neat little SUV box.
Kia ProCeed GT review
Can its first hot hatch change Kia’s underwhelming reputation?
Tokyo Motor Show: Honda Clarity Fuel Cell first drive
Honda was the first to register a zero-emissions hydrogen fuel cell vehicle, and Wheels has just driven an all-new, bigger, more powerful version launched at the Tokyo Motor Show
2016 Holden Ute Review
Based on the proven Commodore sedan, the Holden Ute is easy to drive, performs well, and can cart around mountain bikes, large dogs, jet-skis and pretty much anything else.
Audi S1 review
Cutesy compact hatch goes dizzy on ice
Snackable Review Ford Falcon XR8
Ford’s Falcon XR8 promises to send out the Falcon with a big bang, not a fizzle.
2015 Volvo XC90 First Drive Review
Volvo's second-gen seven-seater steps up. It’s the company’s first shot at the luxury SUV big leagues and it’s a good one.
Hyundai ix35 Fuel Cell review
The Hyundai ix35 Fuel Cell is the world’s first mass-production hydrogen fuel-cell powered car, and its presence in Australia signals the Korean company’s focus on hydrogen power as a key part of sustainable motoring
2015 BMW i3 REx long-term car review, part 3
As the BMW i3 departs the Wheels test fleet, modern life strikes a cord
2015 BMW i3 REx long-term car review, part 2
Family bonding proves inevitable in the BMW i3’s unusually intimate cabin.
Porsche 911 Turbo S
The Turbo blew our minds but the S uses a new kind of dynamite
Toyota Fortuner review
Toyota’s new Hilux-based Fortuner is a tough and capable seven-seat 4x4 wagon that’s cheaper than the Prado.
