NEW CARS A-Z

PULSE Renault’s version of the Nissan Micra is a smart looking hatchback but one that doesn’t stand out for anything in particular. It’s easy to live with and the torquey diesel motor makes it pleasant to drive in traffic, the interiors are spacious and it’s quite practical too. However, low sales are likely to force Renault to axe it soon. RxE (P) RxL (P) RxZ (P) RxL (D) RxL ABS (D) RxZ (D) Scala

SCALA The Scala is Renault’s mid-size sedan though under the skin, it’s a Nissan Sunny. It has capable motors, decent ride and handling and a spacious cabin. But Renault hasn’t done enough to improve it over the years and today, it doesn’t match up to the class bests. Moreover, it could be discontinued soon.

GHOST An incredibly silent cabin, a purring V12 and an unbelievably good ride mixed with plenty of old-world charm are what make the Ghost what it is. It is a last-gen BMW 7-series under the skin, but BMW has made sure that you know you’re in a Rolls-Royce the minute you step into it. Ghost SWB Ghost EWB Phantom

WRAITH The four-seat Wraith coupé is the closest to a sports car Rolls-Royce has ever made. It’s as refined and luxurious as its stablemates but more exciting and dramatic. The fastback shape gives it a distinction. Not to forget the 6.6-litre V12 which helps propel the coupé to 100kph in just 4.4 seconds.

PHANTOM The Phantom is the ultimate Rolls. Think Ghost multiplied by three and you’ll get the picture. It’s been around for some time, but has lost none of its imposing character. It will get you noticed like nothing else. Coupé and Drophead Coupé convertible are the ultimate indulgences. Phantom Phantom EWB Drophead Coupe Coupe Wraith

DAWN Rolls-Royce’s latest convertible takes open top motoring to a whole different level. It’s as luxurious as any other RollsRoyce and, with the roof up, just as refined too – the carmaker says it’s the quietest convertible on sale today. A 6.6-litre V12 allows it to waft at an incredible clip too. Dawn Ghost
