    The SUV (Sports Utility Vehicle) is the evolution of what was once known as the four-wheel-drive (4WD). SUVs range in size beyond the usual small, medium and large, while their shape can either be that of a practical wagon or a style-focused coupe. They also come with the option of all-wheel drive or two-wheel drive.

    GWM Haval H6 2024 review: Ultra Hybrid
    7.9/10
    This week I'm road-testing the new GWM Haval H6 Ultra Hybrid, which is the flagship model, and it offers the convenience of a hybrid engine and the space of much larger SUVs, despite only being mid-sized.But that's not what should worry rivals like the ever-popular Toyota RAV4 hybrid, Nissan X-Trail e-Power and Kia Sportage - it's its price tag.[read-more-default-title]2024 GWM Haval H9 revealed: Will the seven-seat large SUV come to Australia to take on the new Toyota Prado in a 4WD battle?2023's sales winners!

    Mitsubishi Outlander 2024 review: Exceed
    8.3/10
    The Mitsubishi Outlander was launched more than two decades ago and through four generations has proven to be a solid performer in Australia’s highly competitive SUV market.The latest generation arrived in 2021, which includes petrol-only and petrol plug-in hybrid models, competes in the ‘Medium SUV under $60K’ segment where more than 20 rivals fight for buyers.Toyota’s RAV4 is the current sales leader, but the Outlander is within striking distance and closely hounded by quality rivals including the Nissan X-Trail, Mazda CX-5 and Hyundai Tucson.To be such a strong seller in such a competitive market means the Outlander must be ticking many boxes with buyers and Mitsubishi wants them to tick even more, with convenience and safety updates for the 2024 model year. We recently tested one of the top-shelf models to see why the Outlander is such a popular choice.[read-more-default-title]Return of an icon: More hints of a new Mitsubishi Pajero emerge, could it be based on the Nissan Patrol Y63? - report2024 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV adds new GSR model to mid-size SUV line-up to take on Toyota RAV4 Hybrid and Nissan X-Trail e-Power"We are working on a large SUV": All-new plug-in hybrid Mitsubishi Pajero powers into frame as Toyota LandCruiser Prado and Lexus GX gear up for hybrids of their own
