April’s issue of NZ Autocar is now here. What did we cover this month? Get a sneak peak right here.
Nissan Z NISMO
The Nismo version of the Z is here. It’s been fettled in the power, handling and aero departments to deliver a sharper sportster. Is it the Z we were waiting for?
Audi RS 4
Audi has been dedicated to improving its RS 4 over the past few decades. Here we gather the wagons to see how the formula has evolved.
GWM Tank 300 LUX Hybrid
Tank is a new auto name, a division of GWM. Its first offering is the 300, an off-road-oriented SUV. We check out the AWD Lux Hybrid.
Volkswagen Touareg R PHEV
The R now sits at the head of the Touareg line-up locally. It’s a plug-in hybrid of the performance kind but is it the best of the R breed?
Abarth 500e Scorpionissima
Following on from the Fiat 500e, comes the Abarth version. Is it as mad as the ICE-powered 695? You bet.
Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid
Porsche revamped its Cayenne SUV last year, including the plug-in hybrid variants. Herein, we drive the base E-Hybrid PHEV.
Volkswagen Amarok Aventura
VW has added a four-pot petrol variant to its top Amarok, the Aventura. How does it compare with the like-priced V6 TDI?
Cupra Leon V e-HYBRID
Cupra has added another PHEV to its range in the form of the Leon V e-HYBRID. But is it bad timing for this plug-in?
SsangYong Tivoli Turbo Limited
Is the Tivoli still the value package it once was?
Skoda Enyaq Sportline 80
Our time with Skoda’s EV has come to an end. How did we rate the experience?
Mercedes-Benz 230 SL
The now proud owner of this Mercedes Benz SL 230 retells the tale of how he finally got his dream ride ready and registered for life in New Zealand.
Triumph Bonneville T120
Near the head of Triumph’s long-serving Bonneville family is this 1200 twin, the T120. It’s T for terrific.
Suzuki GSX-8S
It looks a bit like a Katana and while it doesn’t go quite as hard, Suzuki’s 8S streetfighter is the essence of middleweight easiness.
