NZ Autocar May 2024 issue is on sale now

NZ Autocar May issue is on sale now graphic

Here it is! Let’s take a look at what we’re covering in the May issue of NZ Autocar.

Audi SQ8 e-tron Sportback

Audi has added e-tron variants to the Q8 range, including this rather racy looking, three-motor SQ8 Sportback. But is it another one-trick electric performance machine?

Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S 4MATIC+

We’ve been driving the Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S 4Matic SUV. Still with that bullish V8 soundtrack but now with electric assistance.

Mercedes-AMG EQE 53 4matic+

The EQE 53 is another AMG SUV that’s big on power but this one goes without the tailpipe emissions. Is it the way forward?

KGM Torres EVX

Following a global rebranding, KGM nee SangYong, launches here with the Torres EVX, a medium-sized electric crossover.

McLaren 750S & Artura

We take the new 750S for a few quick laps of the track. But is the junior Artura nearly as capable?

Toyota bZ4X Pure

The first EV from Toyota is here, with an alphanumeric nameplate to distinguish it from the ICE powered models. The bZ4X name is forgettable but the vehicle certainly isn’t.

GWM Tank 500 Ultra

GWM’s Tank division now has two models, with the arrival of the 500 model, in Lux and Ultra variants. We head for the hills in the latter at the Australasian launch.

Kia Sportage HEV Earth

We’ve driven petrol and diesel versions of Kia’s Sportage and now it’s time to check out the hybrid variant, the HEV.

Polestar 2 Long Range

Polestar has done a real number on its 2, switching the drive from the front to rear for its entry model. Has this big change justified the price hike?

Skoda Enyaq Sportline 80 vs Subaru Solterra

Sales of EVs are on the go slow which makes it a good time to buy. Here we compare the new Subaru Solterra with the Skoda Enyaq. What’s our pick?

Mazda CX-30 SP25

Mazda has added an SP25 to its CX-30 line-up, two actually, one FWD and another AWD. If you don’t need all-paw, we reckon this is one of the best compact crossovers available at present.

Suzuki S-Cross Hybrid JLX 2WD

Suzuki was late to electrification but is making up for lost time. It may be amongst the most expensive for the brand but the S-Cross Hybrid ticks plenty of boxes.

1981 Subaru Brumby

Subaru is renowned for its AWD vehicles, not for its pick-up trucks. But the Japanese firm did turn out a utility vehicle once, and they even made it right here in New Zealand.

Royal Enfield Scram 411

Not likely a jet with just 18kW to its name. Royal Enfield’s Scram 411 is more the two-wheeled urban runabout, a multitasker for motorcycling newbies.
