Diesel&EcoCar Magazine Christmas 2019 Vorige editie

It’s the final edition of DieselCar & EcoCar to bear the date 2019, and we’ve got an absolute corking issue to close the year for you. 14 new car tests and 132 packed pages, with the cover revealing the exciting new Ford Mustang Mach-E pure electric SUV that’s set to go on sale here late next year. We’ve also got the first details of the sharp new Skoda Octavia, and the first details on the deal that will see the PSA Group merge with FCA, creating a mighty motor group that looks after 14 brands, including Abarth, Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Citroën, Dodge, DS Automobiles, Fiat, Jeep, Lancia, Maserati, Opel, Peugeot, Ram and Vauxhall.

Our testers have been putting the 2020 model year Alfa Romeo Giulia and Stelvio through their paces, and we’ve also driven the latest Land Rover Discovery Sport and the mighty Audi SQ8 TDI. With a facelifted Vauxhall Astra arriving in showrooms just about now, we’ve tested it against its biggest rival, the Ford Focus. Which one is victorious?

In EcoCar, we’ve put the Renault Clio through its paces on UK roads and tested the Mazda3 Saloon with the groundbreaking SkyActiv-X engine under the bonnet. With the festive season in full swing, we have Christmas Product Inspector, giving you four packed pages of gift ideas for those that are difficult to buy for. In 12 cars of Christmas, we discuss the cars that we’ve love to see a diesel engine under the bonnet of, and there’s our traditional Christmas crossword to sink your teeth into.

Our used car buyer’s guide features the Honda HR-V 1.6 i-DTEC, and we’re very sad to say a fond farewell to our long-term Land Rover Discovery Sport and Volvo V60 R-Design. And if you haven’t already seen a copy of the facelifted Diesel Car & Eco Car magazine, then get yourself a copy now.
