2020 Kia Stonic hybrid option
.png)
For the first time, the Kia is available in GT Line and GT Line S trims in addition to 2 and Connect. GT Line S, at the top of the range, is priced from £22,245 and brings a colour-coded rear spoiler, bespoke 17in alloy wheels and a choice of six two-tone colour schemes.
A new ‘EcoDynamics+’ mild-hybrid petrol powertrain pairs a 1.0-litre turbocharged three-cylinder petrol with a 48V lithium ion battery and belt-integrated starter-generator (BISG). Energy is recuperated under deceleration to supplement the torque output of the combustion engine and extend ‘engine-off’ time when coasting.
It is available with 99bhp or 118bhp, and the higher-powered version’s maximum 148lb ft torque output is 16% higher than that of the current, non-electrified 1.0-litre option.
The EcoDynamics+ motor can also be paired with a six-speed manual gearbox and Kia’s new ‘clutch-by-wire’ system. Swapping a mechanical linkage for an electronic actuator, the system allows the engine to shut off sooner when coasting to a stop, reducing emissions and saving fuel.
Elsewhere, the Stonic’s existing petrol engines have received “major revisions” in the name of efficiency. On offer are a 99bhp 1.0-litre turbo petrol and a naturally aspirated 1.2-litre with 83bhp, while the five-speed manual gearbox option has been replaced by a six-speed.
The cabin gains a larger 8.0in central touchscreen and smartphone connectivity as standard, and Kia has rolled out its latest live telematics functionality. The resolution of the 4.2in digital display cluster has been upgraded, while new interior customisation options include new blue and yellow trim highlights.

Hyundai Kona N Line AWD
%20(1).png)
What are the uninitiated to make of the updated 2022 Hyundai Kona in new N Line trim ? The subcompact SUV's distinctive exterior is kind of cute, kind of funky and chunky, but not necessarily everyone's cup of tea. As an N Line offering, it's supposed to be sportier, and its size and fifth door have led some to consider the Kona to be something of a compact/subcompact hatchback instead of a small crossover SUV. The 2022 Kona N Line features the range's more powerful 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine linked to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, and our test vehicle has all-wheel drive. As for the N Line designation, that's a reference to the brand's "N" vehicles, like the Veloster N , the Elantra N , and, yes, the Kona N , with N Line being a sort of stepping stone between the regular versions and the frenetic, high-performance full-N models. Those include the Elantra N Line, Sonata N Line, and mor...
Citroen C5 Aircross Hybrid 2020
.png)
Until last year it was a 40-year Citroën tradition that the marque’s biggest and most expensive model should be a large, likeable, slow-selling and fast-depreciating business saloon. In 2019, however, the company corrected that mistake by launching a handsome and distinctive SUV flagship, the C5 Aircross , though even that failed at first to join the electrification bandwagon that was already rolling fast. Now Citroën has remedied this shortcoming with a new two-model range of C5 Aircross plug-in hybrids that catapults it to the front rank of SUV efficiency. The entry-level Flair model costs a very reasonable £35,370, considering it comes with equipment like climate control, air-con and traffic-monitoring navigation, but the bargain is the Flair Plus, which costs barely £1500 more while adding more ornate 19in alloy wheels (instead of 18s), half-leather trim, an electric-adjust driver’s seat, radar cruise control and a hands-free motorised tail...
New Volkswagen Golf GTI

Volkswagen has opened order books for the new, eighth-generation Golf GTI , customer deliveries of which will start later this year. The newest version of the genre-defining hot hatchback is based on the Mk8 Golf, which was unveiled last year. It sticks closely to the established GTI template for the model, retaining the Volkswagen Group’s familiar ‘EA888’ turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine and sending power to the car's front wheels exclusively. However, the standard version of the new GTI features all the additions fitted to the GTI Performance version of the Mk7 Golf, including boosts in power to 242bhp (from 228bhp) and torque to 273lb ft (from 258lb ft), a limited-slip differential and upgraded brakes. To please enthusiasts further, the GTI retains a six-speed manual gearbox as standard, although a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic is again optional. Prices start from £33,460 for the six-speed manual and versions equipped with th...
