Here is a taster from our February 2025 edition
Andrew Walker. Editor.
Awards galore as we salute the new wave of EV stars OUR FEBRUARY edition begins with the 2025 Company Car & Van Awards. Challenging market conditions in 2024 didn’t prevent the motoring industry from bringing out plenty of new company-friendly models and solutions for SMEs as they switch to an electric future. You can read all about our winners from page 4.
Cars
First-up is our SUV Car of the Year, the Škoda Enyaq, which has been significantly face-lifted for 2025. We breakdown the updates, which include some model changes. OMODA is a new Chinese car name that recently entered the UK market and in this edition we test the 5, the brand’s good-looking petrol SUV.
We also drive the BYD SEAL U DM-i, the first plug-in hybrid from the Chinese brand which is really taking the market by storm. And Mazda’s new flagship the CX-80 breaks cover as a plug-in hybrid or Skyactiv diesel. It has best-in-class safety, says Euro NCAP.
Commercials
IVECO has completely revamped its Daily range for 2025 with a new interior, better safety and new infotainment in all panel vans and chassis cabs. We spent a day at Milbrook putting it through its paces to discover just how much better it really is.
The eTERRON 9 pick-up is MAXUS’s latest electric vehicle and it really looks the business. We spent a day driving one and found it’s the best-built MAXUS yet, and another model that is set to shake up the pick-up sector in 2025.
Two years after it was announced, the new Gen 7 Volkswagen Transporter is finally available to order. We have a feature on the range inside
and will be driving one later this month, so keep your eyes peeled for our review in April.
Finally, the large electric Mercedes-Benz eSprinter takes a bow. With a 271-mile range it’s primed to take you further, and comes in a myriad of versions to suit all business needs.
