2024 Toyota C-HR Summary

According to the chief engineer for the Toyota C-HR, a second generation was never guaranteed for this uncharacteristically (for Toyota) design-led small SUV.

After the Corolla Cross came into existence, the top brass didn’t think the brand needed two similarly sized models in the line-up. So, why is it here, and is it any good?

The first question is easy to answer - the team drew the new C-HR up as a European model, built in hybrid-only and with enough key differences from the Corolla Cross to avoid the models competing. 

The second question? Let’s find out.

2025 Mahindra XUV700 Summary

I know you’re hearing a lot about the new Chinese brands coming to Australia, but why isn’t anyone talking about India?

I mean sure, Mahindra isn’t new to the country, but you can’t deny it has undergone a pretty serious glow-up, with the brand determined to become a fully fledged player in our new-car scene.

Leading the charge is the XUV700, with this new feature-packed Black Edition taking the fight to Chinese brands like Chery.

It has sharp styling, seven seats, plenty of tech and safety and a price tag of less than $44K, drive-away.

So, does it deserve a place on your consideration list?
