The world is moving towards electrification and a side effect of this is that traditional gas-powered engines are downsizing. More and more four-cylinder engines are popping up, with forced induction making them just as powerful as the V-shaped engines that they’re replacing. This has, of course, caused quite a stir.

Ford CEO, Jim Farley, made a rather controversial statement in an interview recently:. We have to start to get back in love with smaller vehicles.

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

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.

While the default compact car in the USA seems to be either the Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, or Hyundai Elantra, the Mazda 3 is for the more refined palette. While costing around the same, the Mazda 3 Hatchback exudes a more premium look and feel, backed up by Mazda's now typical zest when it comes to driving dynamics. It comes as either a sedan, which we review separately, or in the cheekier and prettier-to-look-at hatchback form.
