    Suzuki Swift 2025 review: Hybrid GLX long-term | Part 3
    7.0/10

    Subaru Forester 2025 review: Australian preview drive
    Subaru's mid-size Forester SUV has a devoted following in Australia but in recent years its been overtaken by the likes of Toyota's category smashing RAV4. Largely because the latter features a super-efficient 'plug-less' hybrid powertrain. Now a new, sixth-gen Forester has a serious hybrid option of its own. And we've had a preview drive before it arrives in showrooms mid-year.
