Kia EV6

The Kia EV6 looks like it sprinted off a concept stage, its bold, futuristic lines wrapping a surprisingly spacious and grown-up cabin. On the road it delivers crisp, immediate thrust and composed handling, with enough everyday practicality and slick tech to make ditching petrol feel like an upgrade rather than a compromise.

Great for city and recreational driving. Highway speeds and winter reveal its appetite for electricity — range drops quickly. The low beams could be brighter; the high beam is potent! Other than that, the car really pampers you.

The Mazda CX-60 pairs sculpted, understated looks with poised handling and a cabin that punches above its class, making long drives feel unexpectedly civilized. For buyers who want a premium feel without the showroom swagger, it's the sort of car that earns respect quietly — and still manages a wink when you push on.
