2024 Mitsubishi ASX Summary

While the Mitsubishi ASX has long established itself as a compact SUV fan-favourite, its rivals are becoming better specified and even more affordable, like the Kia Seltos, GWM Haval Jolion and MG ZST.

There's a long-running joke that the Mitsubishi ASX is the oldest 'new car' on the market with technology that hasn't had a makeover in close to a decade.

Is the cool new Street package for the ES base model enough to lift its competitive edge?

2025 Volkswagen Tiguan Summary

Without a doubt, this is Volkswagen’s most important new vehicle.

Roughly eight million Tiguan mid-size SUVs have been sold since the nameplate came into existence in 2007, and the one we’re looking at for this review is the first new-from-the-ground-up version in eight years.

While it might look familiar from the outside, don’t be fooled. This third generation car is significantly different inside and underneath with upgrades the brand will need for it to stay relevant against an increasing array of hybrid traditional rivals and newcomers from China.

Does the 2025 Tiguan have what it takes to be your next family hauler? Stick with us as we find out.
