    A rich collection - Trophies & Female contributionsAway from the motors is a rich collection of artefacts that highlight the more human element of the sport. From trophies to lucky charms, letters and sign-on sheets (you thought trying to decipher doctors' handwriting was difficult), they are cleverly curated to give the sport overall context. The display also pulls focus on female contributions.

    With lots of kit as standard, including a 12-inch central touch screen, driver display, voice control, wireless phone charging and a six-speaker sound system, the Gen-E also features built-in cruise control, wrong way alert (uh-oh), and a driver monitoring system that gives early warning of when you need to take a break. It also comes with rear parking sensors and a reversing camera. Don’t rely on the built-in navigation though, I’m yet to drive a Ford EV within which it works without a glitch.

    So What? Jaceoo is counting on continuing demand for petrol cars in the UK, and if you don’t mind compromising on drivability and ride comfort, this 4.5 metre SUV could wipe out pricier competition. If you’re not a badge snob, that is. Driving front wheels at the bottom of the range, the petrol model, which has a 145bhp 1.6-litre engine is priced from £29,435. Its official 0-62mph time is 10.3 seconds.

    The Rough and Fun StuffGiving the Rally some rough treatment on byways and back roads, I felt reunited with longings that driving EVs can rarely appease. Unable to facilitate access to a forest trail to experience the car's full potential (hint, hint, winky face, pretty please Ford,) this was the most challenging environment I could find.
