Road test

  • Mazda small SUV – the CX-30 but we compare it to the 2002 Mazda 121 Metro an radical change of style from the previous model and one that hinted at what was to come.

Thought of the Week

  • Toyota replies to a segment we did a few weeks ago giving their positioning on the decarbonisation of motor vehicles.

Interview

  • Do you think your insurance is a fair reflection of your risk? Are you really a better driver than the others and so should be rewarded? We chat to Simon Donovan from Fuse Fleet insurance on the use of telematics to measure what is really going on with specific car fleets, what the insurance rate should be and how this all ties into better community policies to tackle climate change and road safety.
