After recently giving us a closer look at the diesel and gasoline versions of the Countryman, MINI now puts the spotlight on the EV. Not just any iteration of the electric model, but the more potent SE ALL4. Those suffixes refer to the dual-motor configuration with all-wheel drive. Alternatively, the Oxford-based marque also sells a single-motor variant with front-wheel drive.

BMW is displaying all of its latest products at the 2024 Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend. We’ve already looked closely at the M5 and X3 M50, so it makes sense to discover the revamped 1 Series.

My first thought when I saw the reactions to the new Ford Capri online: "Here we go again." There's apparently a lot of hand-wringing about whether this new Capri is a "real Capri" or not. After all, this new car is an electric four-door sedan-hatch thing with a ride height that gives it SUV vibes, while the old Capri was an iconic European performance coupe—two doors, classic proportions and aimed at younger buyers who wanted something exciting.

BMW has been busy updating the 2 Series, M3, and other models this year. It's now introducing the 2025 X3 in two trims, featuring new hybrid powertrains, the brand's latest infotainment setup, and a fresh exterior design. The new X3 goes on sale in the United States later this year.

Ford reinvents its long-bonneted Seventies icon as a... big SUV-crossover thing spun off the Volkswagen ID.5. Skip 16 photos in the image carousel and continue reading. Fair odds that anyone over 40, upon seeing Ford’s new interpretation of the Capri, will spend five minutes simply saying ‘that’s not a Capri though, is it?’. And despite the Ford marketing department’s tenuous proclamations that this new Capri is ‘what the Capri would have been’ and that ‘the legend is back’, there’s precious little carryover from a long-bonneted two-door coupe that always seemed to smell strongly of four-star petrol and a five-seat, tall-riding, five-door semi-SUV.

It's the brand new Ford Capri! And yes, it's now an electric SUV
