THE OVERRUN

JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA £61,125

CHANGES BIG AND SMALL ARE afoot for Jeep’s most authentic car. First the small – new grille, alloys and a bigger screen. Now, drumroll please… diesel is dead! And so is the two-door. Are we grieving? Nah. Even with less torque the Wrangler still makes a red carpet of impassable terrain. True, it won’t feel at home when you’re in town.

ORA 03 PRO+ £35,195

IT’S THE ARTIST FORMERLY known as the Funky Cat. This Pro+ model gets a sorely needed bigger battery, and inside Ora claims many tech wins (among them CarPlay… in beta form). But the same old gremlins remain – the steering assist aims for lanes that aren’t there, and if you glance away from the straight-ahead you’ll be scolded for your insolence. Not very funky. JH

DACIA DUSTER 1.3 TCe 130 EXTREME £20,260

More than ‘good enough’ and looks fine
