Reviews

  • Sony Ericsson Naite

    Sony Ericsson's Naite isn't a heart-starter but let's face it, the reason you'd buy the Naite is for the secret pleasure of knowing your phone is slightly less of a burden on the environment than those wretched iPhones.

  • Gran Turismo for PSP

    Gran Turismo on the PSP serves as a tantalising appetiser to come before the Gran Turismo 5 main course is due out on the PlayStation 3 next year.

  • Lexus IS250 Sports Luxury (2009)

    What the IS250 lacks in badge snobbery, it makes up for in good looks, rock-solid quality, neat handling and serenity enough to becalm a frazzled monk. While stuffed with tech, it isn't quite as up-to-date as we'd have liked.

  • Mitsubishi i MiEV

    Tall, lanky and cute as a bean, the Mitsubishi i MiEV seems to be a practical electric car for city driving. Shame it's only here for feasibility studies, not to mention lots of gawking.

  • Sony Bravia KDL40WE5

    The Sony Bravia KDL40WE5 is an impressive first stab at creating a "green" LCD, and while picture quality is good you pay a premium for the proprietary backlight.

  • Volkswagen Passat Ling Yu fuel cell

    Don't let the plain Jane clothing fool you, there's impressive powertrain technology hiding in this Passat that emits only water as exhaust.

  • Honda Insight (2010)

    It looks like a Prius, but Honda's hybrid Prius fighter is cheaper, simpler and winning plaudits around the world. Shame it won't be here until late this year, at the earliest.

  • Toyota Camry Hybrid (2010)

    Previewed with a coat of brilliant paint, a dash of blingy wheel action and a sprinkle of leather fantasy at Melbourne this year, the hybrid Camry is due on sale in 2010.

  • Toyota says electric cars too pricey, for now

    Electric vehicles are clearly the favoured technology for concept cars at the Frankfurt Motor Show this week. But Toyota, the leader in hybrid cars, thinks that the high cost of the Lithium-ion batteries will keep electric cars from penetrating the mass market for another decade.
