2021 Ford Puma Summary

S FAR as makeovers go, Hollywood has nothing on the transformation of Ford's small SUV.

Based on the Fiesta supermini only sold here in sizzling ST form, but using a stretched and widened version of its platform with heavily reworked underpinnings, the strikingly styled Puma is as charming – beguiling even – as its EcoSport predecessor was awkward. And we're talking about capabilities that are more than merely skin deep here.

We're not alone in our admiration – one respected UK publication awarded the Ford a 'car of the year' gong – and after nearly a month with our range-topping ST-Line V (for Vignale), we can understand why.

But the German-engineered, Romanian-made Puma is also a complicated proposition in Australia that requires some context, because it is certainly not for everyone.

2024 GWM Haval Jolion Summary

If there is one word that should be at the very top of the GWM Haval Jolion Hybrid’s brochure, it is value, value, value.

Well, that's three words. But you get the idea.

This is the just-updated flagship version, and it gets tons of premium-style goodies, and it’s less than $40k drive-away. The cheapest one is under $33k on the road.

And with Japanese hybrid prices only heading one way — up — that makes this Chinese SUV something of a bargain.

The question is, does it have more to offer than just kindness on your bank account? Or to put it another way, is it both cheap and cheerful, or too much of one and not enough of the other?

There’s only one way to find out. So stick around as we take a closer look at the GWM Haval Jolion HEV Ultra.
