Diesel&EcoCar Magazine 343 Edición anterior

As the Volkswagen scandal comes into full view, we separate the rumours, scaremongering and untruths from the facts, and deliver a six-page feature on everything you need to know. Information on what happened, how you go about checking if your car is affected, and answers to every question you could ever think to ask, and a few that you probably hadn’t thought of. It’s the most comprehensive guide to the Volkswagen ‘defeat device’ debacle and you’ll find it in the December issue of Diesel Car.

But far from the Volkswagen situation dominating this edition, it’s our annual 4x4 and off-road issue, with a comprehensive feature identifying all of the different types and styles of four-wheel-drive, as well as the technology behind them explained. We’ve also been off-roading in some classic Land Rovers and Range Rovers, and you could, too, at Land Rover’s new Heritage Experience centre at Fen End. Camp Jeep sees owners of the legendary vehicles meet up from all over Europe, and we went to the event to see what goes on, including some of the most extreme off-roading that you’ll ever experience. And finally, with the sun setting on Land Rover Defender production, we take a look at some of the most weird and whacky conversions over the vehicle’s 67 year history.

We’ve also got first tests of the new DS 4 Crossback, the BMW X1, and Audi A4 Avant, as well as driving Kia’s facelifted cee’d, the latest Audi A4 saloon and the Renault Kadjar on UK roads for the first time. In keeping with our off-road theme, Mitsubishi’s newly launched L200 pick-up is put through its paces, facing the Isuzu D-Max – you’ll have to buy the issue to find out which one wins.
