Welcome to the latest edition of Full Noise. It's been a long time between drinks as far as this newsletter goes, with the last edition having come out in September.

For now though, our Latest News. features a bevy of news from Suzuki on its Fronx Hybrid SUV (and it's one star ANCAP rating and subsequent safety recall), and a full review of the new Lexus RX 450h+ PHEV and MINI Countryman S.

|
|
Some will say the 2025 Chery Tiggo 4 Pro Ultimate is affordable, and that's probably its most discerning feature. It's more than that, and if you're a gen-Z'er who doesn't care too much about power, it's nigh on perfect.
