Diesel&EcoCar Magazine

The November 2026 issue of Diesel&EcoCar magazine is a bumper issue with the new Jaguar Type 01 taking pride of place on the front cover. We’ve got all the news from its New York debut, including prices and the essential performance figures. Elsewhere, we’ve got news straight from the Paris motor show stands, including an exciting Citroën 2CV concept, the Fiat Multiplay multi-purpose vehicle, the Vauxhall STX show car, DS F3ver vision, the Peugeot RCZ and E-T16 concepts and the sensational Alfa Romeo Cuorerosso. Renault exhibited the E-Space and 8 Gordini show cars, and BYD took the wraps off the Atto 8 and revised Dolphin Surf, while Geely unveiled the Monjaro and a striking SUV codenamed KO11. Elsewhere, Volvo unveiled new long-range plug-in hybrids alongside a revised XC60, Volkswagen revealed the Mission Efficiency, the ID.3 GTI and ID. Tiguan and Bentley showed off the all-electric Torcal for the first time. In addition, the Range Rover Sport gains an electric powertrain, the iX4 is the latest in BMW’s Neue Klasse models, and smart unleashed the #2 in production guise.

Our testers have been driving the Škoda Peaq, the Peugeot E-208 GTi, Alpine A390, Geely EX2 and Mazda CX-6e, as well as the Fiat 500 Hybrid on UK roads for the first time. The Ford E-Tourneo Courier and Dacia Duster Hybrid complete this month’s repertoire. New additions to the long-term fleet include a BYD Atto 2 DM-i, facelifted Cupra Born, Toyota Corolla Touring Sports and Hyundai Santa Fe Plug-in Hybrid, and we wave goodbye to the workhorse of the fleet, the Isuzu D-Max pick up.

We take a look at the best form of propulsion for towing – whether that’s diesel, hybrid, plug-in hybrid or electricity, to see whether diesel is still the fuel of choice for caravanners. In the used car section, we put the SEAT Ateca under the used car microscope, ask whether the Rover 45 was a hero or a zero and feature the Toyota Avensis Verso in Remember This.
