NZ Autocar October 2024 issue is on sale now
Our October issue offers the very latest in the new car market, with a diverse mix of performance and practicality – take a look right here!
Ford Mustang Dark Horse
We sample the seventh-generation Mustang on road and track. Is the V8 pony car still relevant?
Aston Martin Vantage
Aston Martin Vantage, in its latest iteration, is wider, lower and features added power to take the fight to the feisty 911s!
Honda HR-V Sport
It’s been a while between drinks, or drives more accurately, in the case of Honda’s HR-V but the new Gen III model is now here, in hybrid guise only.
Volkswagen Tiguan R-Line
The latest Tiguan, now into its third generation, has a more assertive look, and added tech. We drive the upmarket R-Line.
Polestar 4 Long Range
Polestar adds a 4 to its range, which slots in between the 2 and 3. It’s not what you’d call conventional then but it has its moments.
BYD Sealion 6 Premium
The Sealion 6 Premium is BYD’s PHEV model with two electric motors for an increase in output. Is it worth the premium?
Toyota Prius PHEV
The Prius is no longer an official model for Toyota NZ but it’s not off the menu completely. It can be sourced via Toyota’s Signature Class and here we try the plug-in version.
LDV T60 Traverse
LDV adds the extras to its T60 and presents the Traverse. Is it a plausible alternative to the likes of Ranger and Hilux?
Mini Countryman JCW All4 Flavoured
Countryman Core is all about town and around duties while JCW is for the driving enthusiasts. Does it all come at a cost?
Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 4matic Coupe
After something a bit sportier from the GLE range without going full AMG? This might fit the bill.
Toyota C-HR GR Sport Hybrid E-Four
Toyota adds a bit of GR to its C-HR. Is this a sports hybrid or just a pretender?
Scott Dixon
Becoming a six-time IndyCar champion is a massive feat but Kiwi legend Scott Dixon seems to take it all in his stride. As he reflects on the road to success, he discusses the people and the mindset that have helped him blaze a trail.
1974 AMC Javelin 401
The AMC Javelin may be the forgotten one of the pony car era but that makes it a bit special now. They are a rare sight, and this 1974 example is one of the very last of them.
Harley-Davidson Road Glide
It isn’t often we get to ride green bikes. Or huge green ones for that matter. Meet Harley’s 2024 Road Glide.
