Shock to EVs: $7bn Renault & Geely Deal
New JV to develop and manufacturer NEW Petrol, Diesel & Hybrid Engines
Renault and Geely have just announced a joint venture to develop and build petrol, diesel and hybrid engines – going against the tidal wave of the EV Revolution. With potentially huge investment from Saudi Aramco for its $7 plan, headquartered in the UK – where sales for new petrol and diesel cars are planned to be banned in just 7 years’ time. Utter craziness or insightful genius? Does the ICE fightback start here?
Car Review: Hyundai Ioniq 6
Sporty and Stylish Electric Sedan
The Hyundai Ioniq 5 broke the mould with its retro-futuristic styling that fused imposing boxy lines with charismatic angles and detail touches like matrix lighting. The family SUV was going to be a hard act to follow.

BYD Atto 3 Design Review
Chinese EV just strums along
Some car manufacturers are finally beginning to understand rule number three of making electric cars – the first two being: the batteries should always go in the floor, and style the exterior to offer the least possible resistance to the wind – in other words, make it aerodynamic. The third rule however, supersedes the first two, and it is simply this – there are no rules.

Hyundai Ioniq 5 Review
nod to the past, glimpse of the future
When the Hyundai Ioniq 5 was introduced just over a year ago, jaws dropped. This all-new, all-electric crossover referenced Hyundai’s inaugural production car, and indeed South Korea’s first car, the Pony, from 1975. Squint and you’ll recognise the proportions and silhouette, the sharp edges, blunt front and rear ends, and the early hatchback style.

This is frankly, one of my very favourite electric cars of all
The BMW i4 is essentially the full electric version of the 4 Series. The M50, which I reviewed at Millbrook Proving Ground last year (which is to say I got to drive it hard around the close road circuit), is the top dog. Pretty much the M4 of BMW’s i-series saloons.
2022 Volkswagen ID.5 GTX Review
Volkswagen ID.5 GTX Style 4Motion (300bhp) Review – the Performance Family Electric SUV
The Volkswagen ID.5 is the ‘coupe’ version of ID.4, which is a crossover family SUV-style electric vehicle. And by ‘coupe’ we don’t mean it loses the rear doors, but that it gets a more fastback-like sloping rear roof-line. Cynical but enticing marketing terminology aside, there’s no question the ID.5 is the better-looking sibling, and compared to its smaller ID.3, this is the more grown-up proposition.
