The latest generation of the Audi Q5, one of Europe’s most popular midsize SUVs is now built on a new platform, with electrified powertrains as standard. At the start, all versions will feature MHEV Plus technology, which can add up to 24 PS and 230 Nm of extra power for short bursts. The car's MHEV Plus system runs off a lithium-iron phosphate (LFP) battery with 1.7 kWh capacity; a battery this size isn't quite common for mild hybrids. It can also be recharged by the aforementined electric moto

Aston Martin has always been associated with James Bond but funnily enough in the last film featuring Agent 007, he was seen driving in a humdrum Toyota Land Cruiser Prado. Perhaps Aston’s own SUV isn’t good enough for him then? Well, the British ultraluxury carmaker listened and introduced the Aston Martin DBX707, a major upgrade from the regular DBX SUV.

It's no secret that SUVs are the flavour of the moment. Almost every carmaker has jumped on to the bandwagon - not just Aston Martin but also Lamborghini, Bentley and Rolls-Royce (and people used to laugh at the Porsche Cayenne). The luxury performance SUV segment is no exception, as you can see with this RM818,000 Aston Martin DBX (before options, taxes and OTR costs). It's hardly the first in this genre of super SUVs, but does it really matter? Taut, handsome and dripping with British sophisti

The long-wheelbase 2021 Audi A7L has made its global debut in Auto Shanghai 2021. The Audi A7L will be made by SAIC-Volkswagen and complements the FAW-Volkswagen-made Audi A7. The Audi A7L measures 5,076 mm long (+100 mm) with a wheelbase measuring at 3,026 mm (+98 mm). It’s shorter than the Audi A8 in terms of overall length, but the A7L’s wheelbase is a tad longer (SWB Audi A8’s wheelbase measures 2,998 mm). The interior appears to be largely identical to the standard wheelbase model, save for

Just over four years since Aston Martin announced its investment in a brand-new manufacturing facility at St Athan in Wales, the first Aston Martin to be “Made in Wales” has been driven off the production line. It is also Aston Martin's first luxury SUV, the Aston Martin DBX. The DBX signals a new era in Aston Martin’s pursuit to deliver exceptional performance, style and usability in a segment previously unexplored by Aston Martin.
