Wheels September on shelves today: 2023 Ranger Raptor, Hyundai's N vision, and more

The Ford Ranger came with the big build up, so we get behind the wheel of the latest and greatest from Ford Australia to see if it can live up to the hype.

We also drive a prototype version of the forthcoming Ranger Raptor – because when Ford invites you to a desert playground to put one through its paces, you'd have to have taken leave of your senses to say no.

But we get it. Utes aren't for everyone.

According to the VFACTS data, there are still five or six of you out there who prefer passenger cars, and do we have an issue for you!

We lever 6'7” Georg Kacher into the new Lamborghini Countach and set him loose on Italian roads. Daniel Gardner's been off to South Korea to drive the next instalment in Hyundai's bid for world domination: the slinky Ioniq 6 streamliner.

There's also the run down on the Kia Niro, the Mercedes-AMG EQE 53 and BMW's 220i coupe.

Kirby gets to drive every generation of Audi's stonking RS6 back-to-back and we put the new 300 Series Toyota Landcruiser up against its cousin from Lexus, the LX600.

Elsewhere we pit the Corvette C8 against the best of its European rivals, Ferlazzo talks paint, Dylan Campbell's getting into steer-by-wire tech and Andy Enright takes a look at two very different cars: the classic Mercedes R107 SL and the astonishing Hyundai N Vision 74.
