With the DBX, Aston Martin has wrapped its trademark sports-car drama into a high-riding package that looks like it could sprint off the driveway and into a gala, while the cabin pampers occupants with handcrafted leather and theatrical attention to detail. Behind the wheel it feels like a grand tourer that learned how to tackle country roads, serving up surprising agility for such a stately presence and keeping rivals honest with its rarefied blend of performance and luxury.

The electric drivetrain pays off, especially in turbulent times like these. EVs have left their teething problems behind and now also offer good range.

It's a technologically advanced car, but somewhere along the way VW forgot the pleasant cabin and the comfortable ride. It IS a VW — and that redeems it.

I have an ID.4 GTX and it drives like a dream — loads of extra power, sits well on the road, high seating position, quiet. I can see other cars have bigger screens, but mine works fine.
