Let's manage some expectations first - you’re never going to get a car that looks like a 911, as this is a 4-door sedan. So for now, this is as good as it gets. Well maybe the newly launched Sport Tourismo is better. But for a sedan, this works nicely.

Well this isn’t BMW’s first attempt at luring more buyers towards their diesel 5 Series model. Both E60 and F10 generations were offered with a diesel option — 520d — but unfortunately, interest is small. Probably the clattering at idle was too embarrassing; or it could be due to the fact that it lacks the refinement when driven over longer distance.

So why this and not a Lamborghini then? Well we asked the same question too and found that it would have been an impossible question to answer unless you’ve driven both - and we have. Well we’ve driven the Huracan Coupe at least, both on the road and on the track.

Audi R8 Spyder V10 | Blue Thunder

Like the 80s’ movie featuring a high-tech helicopter, the new R8 Spyder is an advanced assault machine so similar to ‘Blue Thunder’.


The Mazda MX-5 has that effect. In a market where everyone's busy trying to squeeze so much technology along with mind-numbing engineering effort into a shell, Mazda decided to give us a sporty little cabriolet that is so much fun to drive, you're probably willing to sell off a cornea/kidney/liver to buy one. While we also cannot ignore Toyota's 86 and Subaru's BRZ which has similar 'back-to-basic' concept, the MX-5 still stands out further simply due to the fact that you have the option to drive it with or without the roof.

But while the looks might be a bit subjective, the quality definitely isn’t. I’ve always marvelled at Audi interiors and the Q2 is no exception. Aside form the premium materials, what you’ll find standard on the 1.4 TFSI Sport are progressive steering, paddle shifters, dual-zone climate control and MMI Navigation with a 7.0-inch screen and a nice audio system. There are even some new matte-yet-metallic trimmings that I’m seeing for the first time too.

Audi Q2 1.4 TFSI Sport | Fun Factor

Audi's brand new model in the compact SUV segment is undoubtedly fun and different, but can it win over buyers?


Somewhat, its fanbase did not follow through with the refreshed 3008 though. Perhaps because it was not offered in petrol variant; or it could be that Volkswagen’s Tiguan sounded like a far more interesting proposition.

The design of the car is recognisable as a Kia thanks to key signature design elements, such as the ‘tiger-nose’ grille. Designed in Europe, in collaboration with Kia’s Korean design studio, the body blends sharp horizontal feature lines with softer sculpted surfaces; the Stonic’s ‘Targa’style roof enables buyers to choose a two-tone paint finish, inspired by the design of the 2013 Kia Provo concept. It will be available in Europe with up to 20 two-tone colour combinations, with a choice of up to five distinctive colours for the roof.

The sixth generation Polo has grown, making it larger than its predecessor in all of its dimensions.
