2024 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Exceed Tourer review

The upper echelons of the Outlander PHEV range are pricey, but there's a lot to love about Mitsubishi's plug-in hybrid seven-seat SUV.

2024 Mazda CX-5 G35 Akera review

The CX-5 remains an old faithful for Aussie buyers, and the G35 Akera is a punchy and luxurious flagship – if a little dated and thirsty now.
