REVIEW | Why the XC90 represents one of Volvo’s best periods (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Had Geely not thrown its might behind Volvo and acquired a majority stake, things could have turned out very differently for the Swedish marque in its post-Ford era. About 15 years ago the brand went through an exciting resurgence. Cars like the V40 hatchback did well from a sales perspective and gave the brand needed mass-market appeal. There was also the launch of sporting wares like the S60 Polestar, lending some street credibility. And in the luxury category, the reinvention of the XC90 made
REVIEW | Subaru Crosstrek feels tougher than your average urban crossover (opens the original)
Read excerpt

This is the first in the breed of what BMW dubs its Neue Klasse: the New Class. And it alrea
FIRST DRIVE | Nio Firefly EV hatch to be launched in SA soon (opens the original)
Read excerpt
During the past five years, South African consumers have been exposed to a world of entirely new automotive nameplates. Titles that, a decade ago, were unheard of are now climbing up sales charts to rival leading legacy players. There is another one on the horizon. But if you are the kind of reader partial to keeping tabs on the overseas market, then the name Nio might not be all that foreign. It is a Chinese brand specialising in electric vehicles (EVs), and its products are set to be released
