Lotus Emira Review: Exclusive Road + Track Test of 400bhp Baby Supercar | Top Gear

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95iXNnm9FfY

The brand-new Lotus Emira: the 400bhp baby supercar from Norfolk that we’ve all been waiting for. Impatiently waiting for. So much so we’ve taken the chance to strap ourselves into a 2.7-litre V6 Tour prototype to put it through its paces on Welsh roads, on track and see whether it holds its own visually against a Lamborghini Huracan and whether it’s any more practical than its predecessors. As you can imagine being the most exciting and anticipated car of 2022, there was quite the fight to see who’d get to drive it. One that didn’t have a winner. So Top Gear Magazine’s Jack Rix, Rowan Horncastle, Ollie Marriage and Ollie Kew all decided to have a go. Chapters:

First Drive: Ferrari 296 GTB – 819bhp turbo-hybrid supercar | Top Gear

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdTXmeq_SmE

This is the Ferrari 296 GTB. It is a deeply, furiously complex car. A 819bhp turbo-hybrid six-cylinder supercar that can also run silently on electricity. A £241,550 Dino successor that slots into the mid-engined ‘everyday’ Ferrari lineage that started with the 308 47 years ago and has continued without interruption – and with some legendary highlights, including the 458 Speciale – ever since. Could it be one of the best prancing horses ever? Top Gear Magazine’s Head of Car Testing – Ollie Marriage – takes it on road and track to find out… Subscribe to Top Gear for more videos: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear MORE ABOUT TOP GEAR:

Audi Q4 e-tron Review: 0-60mph, ride, handling, tech, range & more | Top Gear Tested

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04z8j_MyMiw

In the olden days, you bought an Audi because you got more than just a badge. You got a posh interior richer in high-quality materials than a Volkswagen. You got more technology than a Seat, more performance than a Skoda, and most of all, you got the neighbourhood curtains twitching as everyone nearby noticed you’d done well for yourself. But in the brave new EV age, is a car like the Audi Q4 e-tron worth the premium price over its Volkswagen group cousin cars, or rivals from Ford or Hyundai? Top Gear Tested investigates, with Serious Car Tester Ollie Kew. Subscribe to Top Gear for more videos: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear MORE ABOUT TOP GEAR:

Audi RS3 Sportback vs Mercedes-AMG A45S: £60k 400bhp 4×4 hyper-hatch showdown | Top Gear

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcDEcq4AmY0

Welcome to the £120,000, 800bhp hot hatch twin test you’ve all been waiting for: the brand new Audi RS3 vs the mighty Mercedes-AMG A45S. It’s a sign of the times we’re living in – the last days of anything-goes internal combustion – that the latest VW Golf R or even a Porsche 911 Carrera are simply not powerful enough to come along and play. But which one out of these two £60k 400bhp 4×4 mega-hatches (both of which are more than happy to drift) makes the most sense? We sent Top Gear Magazine’s Head of Car Testing Ollie Marriage to a small track in Wales to find out… Subscribe to Top Gear for more videos: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear MORE ABOUT TOP GEAR:

VW ID Buzz: Five Things You Need To Know About The Electric Van With A Big Plan | Top Gear

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZ1JvRn-I2A

The Volkswagen ID. Buzz concept made its debut at the Detroit motor show way back in 2017, and TG – along with the rest of the world’s media – begged VW to make it. Within a few weeks they caved, and now at long last we have an actual date for the big reveal: 9 March 2022. Get that in your diary as we’ll be there. But before the final car is revealed we got behind the wheel of a suitably hippyish prototype. So here’s Top Gear’s Head of Car Testing – Ollie Marriage – with five things you need to know.

Hyundai Ioniq 5 Review: Interior, Price, Range & 0-60mph Test | Top Gear Tested

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4srUTEFV_XQ

Can Hyundai continue its excellent recent form (making good sensible cars and fun hot hatchbacks) into the world of EVs? That’s the question for the Hyundai Ioniq, the edgy electric family crossover that’s the first of Hyundai’s new family of Ioniq-badged EVs. Instead of using raw speed to sell it, this is an electric car groaning under the weight of thoughtful design touches, clever details – and one or two gimmicks – to lure you away from rivals like Ford, VW, and (you guessed it) Tesla. Is the Ioniq another smash hit for Hyundai? Top Gear Magazine's Serious Car Tester, Ollie Kew is here with the Tested treatment to find out.

FIRST LOOK: Genesis GV60 – Tesla Rival with Drift + Boost Mode? | Top Gear

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wP1nL9_laoE

A Genesis is to Hyundai what a Lexus is to Toyota: a posher, plusher, more expensive offshoot eyeing BMW and Audi sales that the more humdrum cars from the mothership wouldn’t get anywhere near. So far Genesis has concentrated on conquering the USA, but it’s recently dipped a toe into Europe with brash saloons and SUVs and realised an electric crossover – a Tesla Model Y rival – is needed next.
 
That’s where the Genesis GV60 comes in: a designer-label electric car based on the talented underpinnings of the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia’s EV6. So forget about range and recharging for a minute. This is an EV with a Boost mode. An EV that can drift (apparently). An EV that has a mystic fortune-telling ball for a gear-selector… sort of. It’s not your usual electric SUV, but Genesis needs to be a lot more than ‘the usual’ if it’s to succeed. TopGear.com’s Ollie Kew has been for a closer look at the new Genesis. Could it be the beginning of something? Subscribe to Top Gear for more videos: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear MORE ABOUT TOP GEAR:
