2023 MG ZS EV Summary

If, like just about everybody, you’re a bit concerned that an electric car might not be able to travel as far as you need to go, then the new MG ZS EV Long Range could be the small, fully-electric SUV for you.

We’ve tested the ZS EV Long Range here and can tell you how far you’ll get on a full charge and how much extra you’ll have to pay in price over the standard range version, along with what it’s like to drive, its features, practicality, ownership costs and of course its safety systems.

Be sure to watch the video above, where I’ll take you for a ride and show you my Big Foot tattoo. Yes, seriously.

2023 Toyota Corolla Cross Summary

An SUV version of the Toyota Corolla - how did this not get built sooner? Well, the Corolla Cross is here now and while I don’t know the answer to why it took Toyota so long to invent it, I’ve just been to its Australian media launch and this review should cover off all the questions you might have.

Things like how spacious the Corolla Cross is and if the boot is big enough, what the maintenance costs will look like, what it’s like to drive and of course the prices - depending on which type you buy. There’s also a hybrid version and I’ll tell you what I discovered about its fuel economy and what it's like to drive, too.

There’s a lot to cover, but I’ll keep it simple with just the stuff you need to know. Particularly if a Toyota C-HR or Yaris Cross SUV is too small, and a RAV4 is too big.
