VOLVO UPGRADES FOR 2009
(Thu 15 May 08)
Volvo has introduced new features to all its 2009 model year cars, which are available to order now and officially go on sale in July.
VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG R50
SUV Of The Absurd
This comes as a surprise. Volkswagen expends a lot of effort claiming to be an environmentally-friendly manufacturer, and extolling the virtues of its ever-increasing range of low-CO2 BlueMotion models. Yet consider the Touareg R50, a car which must irritate London's ex-Mayor Ken Livingstone like a wasp in the underpants. Ken's only consolation must be that Volkswagen is building a lot more BlueMotions than R50s.
RENAULT KOLEOS
Comfortable Compact
Within the last few weeks, Volkswagen and Ford have released compact SUVs (the Tiguan and Kuga respectively), while Peugeot and Citroen came to the 4x4 party only relatively recently. With Toyota, Honda and Mitsubishi already on second-generation editions of their small off-roaders and a whole glut of other cars in the sector, Renault has left it rather late joining in the fun. So was it worth the wait - and what separates the Koleos from its rivals?
