New 2025 Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid Review
Jasper Bruce Wright reviews the 2025 Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid, finding it to be a compelling blend of performance and practicality, living up to its P... moreorsche heritage. He highlights the muscular exterior styling, premium interior materials, and extensive features, including a passenger-side screen and quad-zone climate control. The E-Hybrid powertrain, combining a 3.0L V6 turbo with an electric motor, delivers a substantial 470 PS and 650 Nm of torque, enabling a brisk 0-62 mph time of 4.7 seconds. While the claimed WLTP electric range is around 47 miles, real-world figures are closer to 37 miles. The reviewer notes that while it offers good efficiency when regularly charged, the fuel tank range is limited. Despite the hybrid system, the driving dynamics remain a strong point, with sharp steering, compliant air suspension, and a firm yet comfortable ride. The reviewer concludes that the Cayenne E-Hybrid is an excellent choice for those seeking a sporty, practical, and premium family SUV that doesn't compromise on driving engagement. less
New 2025 Skoda Elroq Review
The new 2025 Skoda Elroq emerges as a strong contender in the compact electric SUV segment, particularly challenging the dominance of Chinese brands. ... moreRob Wilson of Buckle Up highlights its impressive aerodynamic design, achieving a drag coefficient of 0.26, making it the most aerodynamic in its class. The Sportline trim, featured in the review, boasts 20-inch alloy wheels and sporty black accents. Practicality is a key strength, with a spacious boot offering over 1500 liters with seats folded and numerous 'Simply Clever' features like a charging cable net under the parcel shelf and an ice scraper in the boot lid. Rear passengers benefit from ample legroom and headroom, along with heated seat controls and USB-C ports. The interior features a user-friendly 13-inch infotainment screen with accessible climate shortcuts and physical steering wheel controls, a welcome change from haptic feedback. While the steering offers little feedback, the ride quality is praised for its comfort and composure. The Elroq offers three battery options, with the top-spec 85 variant providing a WLTP range of 360 miles, though real-world indications suggest around 315-320 miles. Priced competitively starting at £31,500 for the base model and £41,500 for the top-spec, it undercuts rivals like the Kia EV3 and Volvo EX30. Skoda's Elroq is lauded for its comfort, practicality, competitive pricing, and overall execution, earning a strong recommendation. less
New 2025 BYD Dolphin Active Review | Should You Buy BYD's Second-Cheapest Car?
The BYD Dolphin Active, positioned as the entry-level model, presents a compelling value proposition in the electric hatchback segment. The reviewer h... moreighlights its surprisingly premium interior, which punches well above its weight class, featuring quality materials and thoughtful design elements like the unique "flipper" door handles and rotary controls. Practicality is also a strong suit, with ample rear passenger space and a decent, albeit not class-leading, boot capacity. On the driving front, the Active trim, with its 95 PS motor, is not a performance-oriented car, focusing instead on a comfortable and compliant ride thanks to its well-tuned suspension and 16-inch wheels. While steering feel is somewhat lacking, the overall driving experience is described as safe and planted, with the reviewer finding enjoyment in its accessible power delivery. Key drawbacks include the absence of auto wipers and a somewhat complex infotainment menu system. Despite these minor points, the Dolphin Active is lauded for its excellent value, generous standard technology, and a strong warranty, making it a highly recommended option for budget-conscious EV buyers seeking a well-equipped family car. less
New 2025 Tesla Model Y Review | Why So Popular?
The Tesla Model Y, particularly the Long Range AWD dual motor variant, is reviewed as a highly practical and exceptionally good value proposition, pri... moremarily when acquired through business leasing or PCP deals. Reviewers highlight its spacious interior, generous boot capacity (854L expanding to 2,041L with seats down), and the convenience of Tesla's superior charging network and app integration. However, the review points out significant drawbacks in build quality, with stitching issues noted on a low-mileage car, and a lack of cabin refinement, including creaks and noisy auto-wipers. While it offers brisk straight-line acceleration and a comfortable ride for passengers, the steering is criticized for lacking feel, and the overall driving dynamics are deemed uninspiring compared to some competitors. The minimalist interior, while modern, feels somewhat empty and relies heavily on the central screen for controls, which can be a point of contention. Ultimately, the Model Y is positioned as a sensible, appliance-like choice for those prioritizing cost-effectiveness and practicality over driving engagement or premium fit and finish. less
Genesis G80 Electrified Review | Is This the Best EV Saloon on Sale?
Harry King of Buckle Up delivers a comprehensive review of the Genesis G80 Electrified, praising its striking design that often fools onlookers into t... morehinking it's a Bentley. He highlights the premium interior, comfortable seats with heating, cooling, and massage functions, and the extensive technology suite, including a slick infotainment system and advanced driver aids. The driving experience is lauded for its comfortable ride, well-judged steering, and strong performance, with 365 horsepower and a 0-62 mph time around 5 seconds. The real-world range is estimated at around 280 miles, with accurate indicators and fast charging capabilities (10-80% in 30 minutes). However, the review points out significant drawbacks: the boot space is compromised by a large hump due to the shared platform, resulting in less capacity than a VW Golf, and rear passenger headroom is limited for taller individuals due to the raised seats and coupe-like roofline. Despite these issues, King concludes that the G80 Electrified is an excellent, premium EV purchase, especially considering its competitive pricing against German rivals, provided buyers can accept the boot size and are not excessively tall. less
New 2025 Nissan Ariya Review | Base Model = Best Model?
Jasper reviews the entry-level 2025 Nissan Ariya Engage, the most affordable FWD model with the smallest battery. He finds the interior surprisingly l... moreuxurious and practical for its price point, highlighting the spaciousness, comfortable seating, and quality materials, even in the base trim. The driving experience is described as quiet, comfortable, and refined, offering a smooth 'waft' of power rather than outright acceleration, which he finds pleasant and 'ICE-like'. Real-world range is reported as close to the WLTP estimate, with the reviewer achieving approximately 225 miles from the 63 kWh battery. While acknowledging the lack of ProPILOT and some minor compromises in driver assistance features compared to higher trims, Jasper concludes that the Engage model offers excellent value. He praises its competent and safe driving dynamics, efficient performance, and the overall premium feel, making it a strong contender in the electric crossover segment, especially for those seeking a well-equipped and comfortable EV under £40,000. less
New 2025 Skoda Superb Review | Why Would You Buy An SUV?
Rob Wilson of Buckle Up reviews the 2025 Skoda Superb Estate, questioning the necessity of SUVs when such a capable vehicle exists. He highlights the ... moreSuperb's immense practicality, boasting 690 liters of boot space (expandable to 2,000 liters) and generous rear-seat legroom, surpassing many SUVs. The plug-in hybrid variant offers a claimed 62 miles of electric range and impressive real-world fuel economy of around 62 mpg on a long road trip. The reviewer praises the comfortable ride, quiet cabin, and the return of physical climate controls, a welcome feature over screen-based systems. While acknowledging the potential for slightly less headroom with the panoramic sunroof, the Superb's overall package, including its versatile powertrain options (petrol, diesel, PHEV) and available all-wheel drive, makes it a compelling alternative to SUVs for those prioritizing space, comfort, and efficiency. less
New 2025 Omoda 5 Review | The Chinese Nissan Qashqai?
This video introduces the new Omoda 5, a crossover positioned as a budget-friendly alternative to established models like the Nissan Qashqai. The revi... moreewer highlights its surprisingly generous features and specifications for its low price point, suggesting it offers significant value. However, the core question remains whether this affordability comes at the cost of compromises in quality or performance. The review aims to determine if the Omoda 5 is a smart purchase or if its low cost masks underlying issues. Further details on specific driving impressions, interior quality, and real-world performance are expected to be covered to answer whether this new entrant from China is a genuine contender in the competitive crossover market. less
New 2025 Toyota bZ4X Review
Harry King reviews the 2025 Toyota bZ4X, Toyota's entry into the large family electric crossover segment. He notes its platform share with the Su... morebaru Solterra and finds the exterior styling polarizing but appreciates the off-road focus and durable plastic cladding. The interior is described as sleek and cocooning, with a well-integrated infotainment system and digital cluster, though some cheaper materials are present lower down. A key improvement highlighted is the addition of a water heat exchanger to the charging mechanism, significantly boosting charging speeds in poor conditions, though its peak 150 kW charging capability is still behind some rivals. The driving experience is deemed comfortable, with smooth electric acceleration and seamless regenerative braking, characteristic of Toyota's expertise. The reviewer praises the gentle safety system reminders and the availability of Toyota's extensive warranty, including a 10-year, 640,000-mile battery guarantee. Despite some compromises like the rear seat base height and lack of a frunk, the bZ4X is considered a competent and worthwhile option for families seeking an electric SUV, especially with its improved charging and strong warranty. less
Which Is the Best Hybrid Supermini? 2025 MG3 Hybrid+ vs Mazda 2 vs Suzuki Swift Shootout
Buckle Up pits the 2025 MG3 Hybrid+, Mazda 2 Hybrid, and 2024 Suzuki Swift Hybrid in a comprehensive triple test. The MG3 Hybrid+ emerges as the overa... morell winner, praised for its stylish and well-equipped interior, comfortable seats, and superior standard equipment. While it doesn't lead in fuel economy, its over 60 MPG is still impressive for a petrol vehicle. The reviewers found the MG3's interior to be the most polished and visually appealing, with good material quality for the segment. The parking challenge highlighted the MG3's superior parking technology, though Rob Wilson was the standout parker. The Mazda 2 Hybrid, despite being the most expensive on paper, is criticized for its dated and offensive interior design, though its physical climate controls are a plus. The Suzuki Swift is noted for its cheerful interior, comfortable seats, and good practicality, making it a close second, especially if favorable finance deals are available. Ultimately, the MG3 Hybrid+ is recommended for its balance of features, comfort, and performance, with the Mazda 2 being a consideration only with specific finance offers. less
New 2025 MG3 Hybrid Review
Jasper from Buckle Up declares the new 2025 MG3 Hybrid Plus a potential class leader, praising its sporty styling, surprisingly premium interior, and ... moregenerous standard technology, especially for its affordable price point. He highlights the car's strong performance, with a combined 194 PS from its hybrid powertrain, making it significantly quicker than rivals like the Toyota Yaris. The chassis is noted as a vast improvement over the outgoing model, offering enjoyable handling, though the steering lacks direct feedback. While the interior materials and design feel upscale for the segment, the reviewer points out that rear passenger space is adequate for shorter drivers but tight for taller individuals. The main drawback identified is fuel economy; while a claimed 64.2 mpg (WLTP) is achievable with careful driving, it falls short of the hyper-efficient rivals like the Yaris. However, the reviewer concludes that the MG3 Hybrid Plus offers exceptional value, combining strong performance, ample tech, and a comfortable ride at a competitive price, making it a hearty recommendation and the new benchmark in its class. less
New 2025 Honda CR-V e:HEV Review | Better Than the PHEV?
Harry King reviews the 2025 Honda CR-V e:HEV, positioning it as the superior choice over the PHEV variant for most buyers. He highlights its supreme c... moreomfort, practicality, and excellent fuel economy, particularly for longer journeys, achieving mid-40s MPG. The reviewer praises the spacious interior, comfortable seating, and user-friendly cabin with physical climate controls and ample storage. The all-wheel-drive system is noted as a significant advantage for security in adverse conditions. While acknowledging it's not a true off-roader, the CR-V e:HEV offers useful features like snow traction control. The reviewer finds the powertrain, which uses the engine as a generator for an electric motor, highly efficient and unobtrusive, delivering adequate performance for a family vehicle. A minor drawback mentioned is the overly eager and sometimes intrusive safety warning beeps. Ultimately, the CR-V e:HEV is recommended as the pick of the range for its all-around competence and convenience, especially for those who don't want the hassle of charging. less
New 2025 Mazda 2 Hybrid | More Than Just A Re-Badged Toyota Yaris?
The 2025 Mazda 2 Hybrid, a facelifted version of the re-badged Toyota Yaris, receives a mixed review. While the exterior styling has been subtly updat... moreed with Mazda's distinct grille, the core Yaris architecture remains evident, particularly on the sides and rear. Inside, the cabin is functional but uninspiring, with hard plastics and a dated feel, though it offers decent space for taller drivers in the front. Rear passenger room is notably cramped for adults. The standout feature is undoubtedly the powertrain: a 1.5L hybrid system delivering exceptional fuel economy, with the reviewer achieving over 70 MPG consistently and even reaching 92 MPG during an economy run. The CVT transmission, while efficient, produces a droning noise under acceleration. Driving dynamics are described as adequate and sensible for town use, with light controls and parking aids, but not exciting. The main drawback is its price point compared to rivals like the MG3 Hybrid, although a 0% finance deal on the Mazda 2 Hybrid could make it a more compelling financial proposition than its Yaris counterpart, despite the latter offering a superior warranty. less
2025 KGM Torres EVX Review | Should You Buy This Car?
The KGM Torres EVX presents a compelling, albeit niche, proposition in the electric crossover market. Its standout feature is its rugged, boxy styling... more, reminiscent of traditional body-on-frame SUVs, coupled with class-leading boot space exceeding 700 liters. The reviewer highlights the spacious rear seating, comfortable ride for a body-on-frame vehicle, and honest range estimation, predicting around 240-250 miles on the motorway. However, the interior materials are criticized as not being up to par for its near £46,000 price point, and the infotainment system is noted for occasional lag and connectivity issues. A significant drawback is the current front-wheel-drive-only configuration, with the reviewer expressing a strong desire for an all-wheel-drive variant to match its off-road aesthetics. Despite these criticisms, the Torres EVX is praised for its practicality, unique styling, and the benefits of electric ownership, making it a strong contender for those prioritizing a utilitarian, chunky family EV with a distinctive look. less
Real World Range Test: Tesla Model 3 Vs BYD Seal Vs Hyundai Ioniq 6 Triple Test
This 'Buckle Up' episode pits the 2024 Tesla Model 3 against the BYD Seal and Hyundai Ioniq 6 in a real-world range and efficiency test. Whi... morele the Tesla Model 3 ultimately wins, proving its renowned efficiency and benefiting from the superior Supercharger network, the other contenders offer compelling alternatives. The BYD Seal impresses with its range and charging speed, while the Hyundai Ioniq 6, despite a lower stated efficiency, shows strong real-world performance and is highlighted as the cheapest to run. The reviewers found the Tesla's interior bland and its self-canceling indicators irritating, contrasting with the Ioniq 6's user experience. Despite its drawbacks, the Ioniq 6 is a personal favorite for one reviewer due to its overall package and running costs. The test confirms that all three EVs are capable of handling typical motorway commutes. less
What Is the Best EV Saloon? Tesla Model 3 Vs BYD Seal Vs Hyundai Ioniq 6 Triple Test
This "Buckle Up" episode pits the Tesla Model 3 against the BYD Seal and Hyundai Ioniq 6 in a comprehensive triple test. While the public fa... morevored the BYD Seal for styling, the hosts ultimately awarded the win to the Hyundai Ioniq 6, citing its superior practicality and comfort, despite the Tesla Model 3 offering more boot space. The review highlights the Ioniq 6's better user experience and quieter ride compared to the Model 3, which struggled in the noise and comfort test. The BYD Seal, though stylish and a close second in overall points, was hampered by its boot space and a less intuitive user interface. The hosts acknowledge that speed and charging/range were not primary factors in this specific test, but suggest the Tesla Model 3 might win on those metrics and cost. less
New 2025 BYD Seal Design Review: Best Value EV Saloon
Jasper from Buckle Up delivers a compelling review of the 2025 BYD Seal, positioning it as a top contender for best value in its segment. He praises t... morehe Seal's sharp, clean, and unique exterior styling, drawing comparisons to premium brands. The interior receives high marks for its luxurious feel, premium materials, intricate stitching, and comfortable, supportive seats. The infotainment system, with its large, crisp display and intuitive interface, is highlighted as a strong point, further enhanced by a highly capable voice assistant that mitigates the occasional menu complexity. Dynamically, the Seal is lauded as potentially the best-handling car in its class, offering a playful, engaging, and confidence-inspiring rear-wheel-drive experience, despite minor feedback issues with the brake pedal and steering. Real-world range is estimated at over 310 miles from its 84 kWh battery, making it highly practical. The "Design" trim, a rear-wheel-drive model with 313 PS, is particularly recommended for its accessible price point (around £42-45k with incentives), offering excellent performance and technology for the money. While the boot space is slightly smaller than a Model 3, the overall package, including its premium interior and driving dynamics, earns it a hearty recommendation. less
New 2025 Tesla Model 3 | Still The Best In Class?
Rob Wilson reviews the updated Tesla Model 3, highlighting significant improvements in aesthetics, technology, and packaging, while also pointing out ... moresome notable drawbacks. The "Highland" update brings sharper styling, a more aggressive rear end with sequential indicators, and a vastly improved interior featuring a large central screen controlling nearly all functions, including climate and vehicle settings. The addition of an 8-inch rear-seat screen for climate control and entertainment is a major plus for passengers. Storage is also a strong point, with a sizable boot, frunk, and extensive underfloor compartment. However, the review heavily criticizes the removal of physical indicator stalks in favor of haptic buttons on the steering wheel, deeming it an "ergonomic nightmare" particularly in complex driving environments like the UK. The automatic wipers are also noted for their inconsistent performance. Dynamically, the Model 3 is described as competent and quiet, but not particularly sporty, with the seats noted as less comfortable for long journeys. Despite these criticisms, the reviewer concludes that the Model 3 remains a compelling package due to its efficiency, advanced tech, improved packaging, and competitive pricing, especially for company car schemes, provided buyers can adapt to the new control interface. less
Mazda MX-30 R-EV Review | Can A Rotary Work For EVs?
The Mazda MX-30 R-EV presents a unique proposition in the EV market, utilizing a rotary engine as a range extender. Reviewers praise the car's di... morestinctive styling, comfortable interior with premium materials like cork and recycled fabrics, and engaging driving dynamics, noting Mazda's typical focus on driver enjoyment with good steering feel and a planted ride. However, the R-EV's practicality is significantly hampered by its unconventional rear-hinged 'suicide' doors, which complicate access to the rear seats, especially for families with children or child seats. While the rotary generator offers a solution to range anxiety inherent in the pure EV version, its efficiency is questioned, with a combined range of 280 miles from a 50-liter tank deemed modest. The price point, around £38,500, is also considered high, though dealer incentives may improve its value proposition. Ultimately, the MX-30 R-EV is seen as a niche product, appealing to those who appreciate its unique engineering and style, but its compromised practicality, particularly the door design, makes it a difficult recommendation for many. less
New 2025 Volkswagen ID.7 Review | VW's Tesla Model S Rival
Jasper from Buckle Up provides a comprehensive review of the 2025 Volkswagen ID.7, positioning it as a strong contender against rivals like the Tesla ... moreModel S and BMW i5. The vehicle impresses with its spacious and luxurious interior, featuring highly comfortable, award-winning massaging seats, excellent material quality, and ample rear legroom. Practicality is also a highlight, with a large hatchback-style boot offering significant cargo space. On the road, the ID.7 delivers a smooth and powerful driving experience, thanks to its 286 PS and 545 Nm of torque, achieving 0-62 mph in 6.5 seconds. The ride comfort is exceptional, effortlessly absorbing road imperfections. However, the reviewer notes the extensive use of capacitive touch controls, particularly on the steering wheel, as a point of frustration, preferring physical buttons. While the steering lacks significant feedback, the car is praised for its overall competence and comfort, making it a well-rounded option for long-distance and family driving, especially given its competitive pricing. less
Skoda Enyaq 85x Review | Better Than An Ioniq 5?
Harry King reviews the Skoda Enyaq 85x Coupe, highlighting its significant technological facelift and improved efficiency. He praises the car's s... moreubstantial range (around 340 miles WLTP), strong performance from the 286 PS motor, and impressive practicality, particularly the spacious boot and rear seating. The reviewer commends Skoda's efforts to improve the infotainment system over VW's offering, noting the addition of more physical buttons for climate and driving modes, though he still finds the screen navigation somewhat fiddly. Key recommendations include opting for the heat pump and considering smaller wheels for better range and ride comfort, suggesting the standard crossover body style might be preferable for maximum practicality. Despite minor criticisms of the infotainment and ride on larger wheels, King concludes the Enyaq 85x is a very strong contender in the electric family crossover market, offering good value against rivals. less
New 2025 Genesis GV60 Review: More Luxurious Than a Tesla Model Y?
Jasper from Buckle Up provides a comprehensive review of the Genesis GV60 Sport Plus, highlighting its luxurious interior, distinctive styling, and po... moretent performance. The "Sport Plus" trim, with its 482 PS and 700 Nm of torque, delivers exhilarating acceleration, further enhanced by a "Boost" button that inflates seat bolsters for a more engaging experience. The interior is praised for its high-quality materials, including Nappa leather and Alcantara, and thoughtful features like heated/ventilated seats and a panoramic sunroof. Practicality is addressed, noting a 432L boot (expandable to 1550L with seats down) and ample rear passenger space, though headroom is slightly compromised by the coupe-like roofline. The reviewer finds the driving experience to be a strong point, with comfortable adaptive suspension, competent handling, and effective one-pedal driving. A unique "ICE mimic" mode simulates internal combustion engine sounds and gear shifts, which Jasper finds both bizarre and cool. The main drawback identified is the price, with the tested model reaching £75,500. Despite the cost, the GV60 is recommended for its blend of luxury, performance, technology, and style, positioning it as a strong contender in the premium electric crossover market. less
New 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5N First Drive Review
The Hyundai IONIQ 5N is hailed as a groundbreaking electric performance car, fundamentally changing the perception of EVs. Reviewers are overwhelmingl... morey impressed by its ability to deliver genuine driving fun, mimicking the feel of a traditional petrol hot hatchback with remarkable accuracy. The 650 PS output, 3.4-second 0-62 mph time, and 740 Nm of torque are highlighted as exceptional for an EV, especially given its 2.2-ton weight. The car's handling, grip, and braking are praised, with particular admiration for the sophisticated "N Active Sound+" and "N e-shift" systems that simulate gear changes and engine noise, making the driving experience feel authentic rather than a mere imitation. While the WLTP range is stated at 278 miles, real-world figures are expected to be around 240 miles, decreasing with enthusiastic driving. Despite its high starting price of £66,000, the consensus is that the IONIQ 5N offers unparalleled performance and driving engagement, potentially setting a new benchmark for electric performance vehicles. less
New 2025 Maxus T90EV Review
The Maxus T90EV is reviewed as the UK's electric pickup truck offering, positioned as a potential alternative to the Cybertruck. While it boasts ... morea traditional pickup silhouette and a usable 1-ton payload capacity, significant drawbacks are highlighted. The design is criticized for its large, unnecessary grille and the exposed rear motor, compromising off-road potential. A key issue is its strictly rear-wheel-drive configuration, despite being fitted with 4x4 tires, and the battery's low placement reducing ground clearance. The interior is deemed utilitarian with hard plastics and vinyl, lacking modern features and comfort, especially considering its £50,000 price point. Practicality is further hampered by a non-locking tailgate, a poorly positioned reversing camera, and a non-functional heater in cold weather, leading to drastically reduced efficiency and range (around 110 miles in 2°C conditions). The reviewers suggest the vehicle feels like a rushed product, lacking refinement and essential features like all-wheel drive or multiple trim levels. While acknowledging its potential value on aggressive lease deals (as low as £99/month ex-VAT), the standard retail price is considered a non-starter. The T90EV is deemed acceptable as a commercial vehicle at a much lower price point, but significant improvements are needed, particularly for an all-wheel-drive version. less
