Kia EV5 Full Review

Kia’s EV5 aims to replace the family SUV with electric practicality, strong range and serious tech — but as I discovered, it’s not always keen to show off its clever features when you need it to

The EV5 is Kia taking its best-selling formula – the Sportage – and rethinking it for the electric era, not just swapping out the engine for a battery, but genuinely reworking the whole idea of what a family SUV should be when you start with a clean sheet, and if they’ve got this right then this could end up being one of the most important EVs on sale right now, because it slots along the combustion-engined powered Sportage as the electric equivalent. And the Sportage is a best-seller for Kia.

Fuel Prices Are Rising – These 10 Cars Could Save You £800 a Year

Fuel prices are climbing again and shortage fears are back in the headlines – but instead of panic, here’s a practical guide to the cars that could actually save you serious money right now

Fuel prices are on the move again – and not in the direction anyone wants. With global tensions flaring and supply chains under pressure, motorists across the UK are once again being warned about rising pump prices and even the possibility of shortages. Whether that happens or not is still up for debate, but one thing is absolutely certain: driving is getting more expensive again. The increase doesn’t look dramatic at first glance. We’re talking about just 3 to 4 pence per mile more than before. Doesn’t sound like much, does it? But over a year, it adds up alarmingly quickly.

Why Grown Men NEED to Collect Model Cars (It’s Not What You Think)!

You’ve seen it. Shelves of tiny cars, obsessively arranged like a miniature showroom. Looks like a toy collection. It isn’t. It’s something far deeper, and slightly more revealing than most collectors would care to admit

“When will you grow up?!” an old friend once asked when he visited my home in Dubai and took one look around my front room. His eyes lingered, not in admiration or envy, but in sheer perplexity at my cabinet full of model cars. He’s not a car guy. But I’m obviously the BrownCarGuy.

2026 MG S6 EV Review: The Big, Calm, Grown-Up MG EV

MG’s new S6 EV arrives as a grown-up, spacious and impressively refined electric SUV that could tempt many families away from the usual big-brand choices

The 2026 MG S6 EV arrives without theatrics, yet the moment you walk around it, sit in it and drive it, you realise MG has shifted up a gear. This is the brand’s new family-sized electric SUV, the one many households have been waiting for. It sits on the same modular platform as the MG S5 EV but stretches everything further. A 77 kWh battery, rear-wheel-drive or dual-motor all-wheel drive, up to 329 miles of official WLTP range, and prices sitting roughly between forty-one and forty-four thousand pounds. MG is not pretending this is “budget” anymore. It is aiming for the mainstream.

2026 Suzuki E Vitara Review – India’s First Global EV Lights Up the UK!

Suzuki’s first electric car isn’t from Japan – it’s from India! The E Vitara blends a Desi heart with Japanese engineering precision, and right now it’s one of the best EV bargains on sale in Britain

Japanese car companies have always been on the leading edge of engineering. Innovating, developing, breaking new ground – surging ahead of the crowd in surprising new ways. And Suzuki’s latest new car… doesn’t conform to any of that. Well, apart from the ‘surprising’ bit.

Because the new E Vitara isn’t truly Japanese at all. It’s more like a takeaway tikka delivered by a samurai. And given how much Brits love a good curry, Suzuki’s first fully electric car – designed and built by Maruti Suzuki in Gujarat, India – rolling off the boats onto our roads at barely believable prices, is surely going to go down a treat. You won’t even need the Alka-Seltzer for this one.

Why ‘BrownCarGuy’?

Why I chose “BrownCarGuy” and how it responds to institutional racism in the automotive media industry

Racism – I tell you what it is, how it’s done and where you can get some. Plus how to install it in your car. Actually none of that is true…. well most of it’s not true. But there will be a bit of race in this discourse, and I don’t mean on the track… or the road for that matter.

California Zero Emission Zones could Ban Classic Cars!

California’s Proposal to Ban Classic Cars: Could it happen? What would it mean for the rest of the world?

Classic cars under threat? California, the birthplace of car culture, is considering a bold move that’s left motoring enthusiasts fuming. The state is proposing to introduce Zero Emission Zones that could restrict or outright ban vintage cars from certain areas. Sound familiar? It’s eerily similar to London’s ULEZ, and history tells us that what happens in California doesn’t stay in California. These trends tend to spread. So, could cherished classic car culture face the same fate globally?
