Renault Kadjar Is Coming
Yes, yes, Kadjar is a very strange name. But, that’s because it’s not actually an English word but two separate French words! The name KADJAR is built around KAD- and -JAR. KAD- is inspired by ‘quad’ – representing a go-anywhere four-wheeled vehicle and -JAR recalls the French words ‘agile’ and ‘jaillir’ representing agility and suddenly […]
Car Articles Car Of The Year 2014
Here at Car Articles, we were scratching our heads when considering which four wheeled wonder stood out for the best reasons. We considered left field choices, expensive choices, reasonably priced choices, fast cars, luxury cars and just about everything in between. Finally, we were left with a car that can be seen (and used) just […]
New Renault Espace Makes Waves
This is the all new Renault Espace – and what a looker it is! Moving away from the rather unflattering boxy looks of the previous car, the newest incarnation is less MPV and more crossover. We at Car Articles definitely approve. The Espace has been with us in various incarnations for 30 years now and […]
Peugeot 2008 Concept Shows Something New – But It Is A Crossover
Whilst this is labelled as a concept car, the Peugeot 2008 is actually already confirmed for production in the middle of 2013. It is designed to offer practicality to the younger generation whilst remaining fresh and offering something a little different in what is one of the busiest segments. Under its sleek bonnet the 2008 […]
Auto Express Reveals Images Of New Megane SUV
Auto Express has some exclusive images of a rather lovely looking SUV – which is based on the current Renault Megane! I must say, it certainly more than meets expectations in the looks front and gives most other SUV/crossovers a run for their money. It is almost on par with the incredibly well designed Range […]
Five Reasons Why Small SUVs (Crossovers) Are Big Business
The image above is the Chevrolet Trax (interesting name I know for what will be even in the most potent guise a soft roader only) – however it could just as easily be, barring the badge, any one of several vehicles from a number of manufacturers. The reason? Small sports utility vehicles, crossovers or baby […]
Audi Q3 Reviewed By CarBuyer
The crossover vehicle seems to be the car of the moment – pretty much every manufacturer is pushing them out the doors and we can’t seem to get enough of them either! There’s also a trend I have been watching very closely that relates to the size of SUV type vehicles gradually getting smaller. The […]
The New Infiniti EX30d
Infiniti cars are still a rare sight on British roads, but hopefully that’ll soon change as the brand makes more of an impact with cars like the new EX30d. Priced from £35,975, this crossover promises to raise the bar for diesel engine refinement and vehicle safety as well as delivering Infiniti’s greenest environmental performance to […]
Nissan Murano Diesel
The Nissan Murano is a great crossover – but the one thing it has been missing is a diesel engine with a shedload of torque. However, this all changes in September 2010, with the addition of a diesel engine to the line-up becoming available. The introduction of the diesel version comes just as Nissan will […]
