IF you look up the definition of the word scala you'll find it's something designed to grow with the demands of its users. And that pretty much describes the Skoda Scala, which since its launch in 2019 has continued to improve as more and more drivers have discovered just what a good buy it is. Since that date more than 260,000 models have rolled off the production line and for 2024 there is a new, upgraded version.

IN the somewhat clinical world of electric cars and hybrids the Mazda MX-5 shines out like a beacon to those who enjoy real motoring. This trendy little two-seater convertible has been around since 1989, and despite serious competition has managed to retain its love affair with the seat of the pants, wind in the hair driving enthusiast.

IT can't be an electric car I can hear the engine, my automotive know-it-all neighbour insisted. It is and you can't I retorted. In fairness it did sound like an engine but what he could hear was Abarth's clever sound generator system which, in the new 500e, perfectly mimics the sound of the conventional petrol engined Abarth 500.

THE escalating number of new cars coming onto the market means brand loyalty is constantly under threat. But if there's one company that suffers from the problem much less than others it's Honda. Honda buyers are a loyal bunch and traditionally tend to move from one Honda model to another, so news of an addition to the brand's line up is likely to get the company's showrooms buzzing.

IN a world of rapidly changing automotive technology one auto manufacturer at least is keeping a wary foot in the past. Electric cars may, on the face of it, be the future, but with its latest model Mazda is sensibly still fighting the corner of the much-loved diesel. And after sampling the new 3.3-litre, six-cylinder CX-60 diesel I'd say its likely to score a knockout victory for a lot of car enthusiasts.

IT'S always nice to drive something out of the ordinary, something unfamiliar that people stop and look at, wondering what make it is. A week behind the wheel of a Genesis G70 saloon has seen me enlighten numerous people about the origin, virtues and qualities of an upmarket brand still unfamiliar to many in the UK. The company is well established in the USA however, selling more than 56,000 models there in 2022, up more than 13 per cent on the previous year.

IT may be the smallest SUV in Hyundai's range but the new Bayon is big on style and big on quality. With its two-tier bonnet and striking angular rear it's a car which really does put many of its rivals in the shade. It's not quite as unusual under the skin as it's powered by a relatively small 998cc, three-cylinder petrol engine with 48-volt mild hybrid assistance which helps boost its mpg.

DRIVERS nervous of going all electric often opt for the sensible halfway house of buying a hybrid. But now there's a new option worthy of serious consideration.

IT'S a tall order making an electric SUV look sleek and sporting but with the I-Pace Jaguar has excelled - to the detriment of its competitors. It's probably not surprising really when you consider the company's history of creating some of the most beautiful saloons and sportscars long before SUV models became the must-have buy of the masses.
