    Toyota's RAV4 order books are full to bursting and wait times are blowing out to 18 months or more, but that hasn't stopped people continuing to register their interest to buy one of these insanely popular mid‑sized SUVs.And it's no surprise because the RAV4 makes a lot of sense as a comfortable family 2WD wagon.But in a highly competitive market has this medium SUV lost its shine?

    It's easy to see why the newly facelifted Kia Sportage SX petrol is a serious competitor for the medium SUV market. The biggest pull factor is the (very healthy) price tag. However, its restyle has pushed it from being 'just okay' in the looks department to downright stylish. Add the practicality of a spacious cabin and, while it might not take the win, it certainly gets on the podium.

    In Australia, we love Mazda, but one model is king above all others. After six years on sale though, should it be? We find out.

    The mid‑size luxury SUV segment is the most conjested when it comes to plug‑in hybrids, so how does Volvo's XC60 set itself apart?

    Subaru hasn't given the Forester a facelift and it may be banking on the 'tried & tested' popularity of models gone by but in a market saturated with medium SUVs will the old‑school design still land a podium finish?
