FIRST DRIVE: Hyundai Santa Fe – Epic 3000-Mile Test
Top Gear Magazine doesn’t do things half-heartedly.
For instance, the McLaren 750S had to triumph against the likes of the Porsche 911 S/T and Aston Martin Valkyrie before it was awarded our 2024 ‘Performance Car of the Year’ title.
And before we bestowed the 2024 ‘SUV of the Year’ crown on the Hyundai Santa Fe, we took it on a 3000-mile adventure across New Zealand, submitting it not just to all types of terrain, but all types of tests too.
Over to Top Gear Magazine’s Head of Car Testing, Ollie Marriage, to get some miles under his belt…

MID-AIR CRASH IN WASHINGTON DC, MASS-CASUALTY EVENT! Breaking News With The Enforcer 1071
Ukraine has conducted a new wave of serious attacks against Russian pipelines, knocking out 2 of them today and ensuring that the Russian federation is no longer able to ensure it's vital economic lifeline. A state of panic is now descending across Russia as the country realizes that the war will go on, but Russian cannot. North Koreans were recalled for retraining because of large amounts of insubordination and stealing that occured between them and the Russians. A US airliner crashed in the Potomac in Washington DC after colliding with a helicopter.

MASSIVE RUSSIAN OIL PORT COLLAPSES, MASSIVE LOSSES IN KURSK! Breaking War News W/ The Enforcer 1072
Ust Luga, the largest Russian oil port, has shut down today after fuel supplies and reserves have collapsed in storage capacity across Russia. This port accounts for 20% of all exports of Russian oil. The Russian federation appears to be panicking, and has ramped up offensive efforts in Kursk after the withdrawal of North Korean soldiers. This has gone poorly, as heavy losses have been taken, and the Russian attack was forced to retreat. In Syria, the Interim government is demanding of Russia the return of Assad and reparations for war damages. Russian ICBM's are reportedly facing major issues.

FIRST DRIVE: Land Rover Defender OCTA – We Try To Break It!
The Defender OCTA has piqued our interest ever since a viral video showed a prototype smoking a four-wheel drift around the Nürburgring.
The definitive spec proved no less enticing: it’s the most powerful Defender ever, with a 635hp V8; Land Rover has raised it by 28mm and widened it by 68mm; braking is by Brembo; and the hydraulically interlinked ‘6D Dynamics’ suspension is akin to a top-end McLaren.
And now we get to drive it, thrashing it over the toughest trails that South Africa can throw at it.
Does it live up to its billing as ‘the most extreme Defender ever’? Or does it break under duress? Over to Top Gear’s Editor-in-Chief, Jack Rix, for the verdict…

FIRST LOOK: New Tesla Model Y – World’s Best-Selling Car Updated!
The world’s best-selling car isn’t a Toyota, Honda or Nissan, nor a pick-up truck from the likes of Ford or Chevy. Instead, it’s a battery powered, mid-size crossover, from a brand that hasn’t been around for much more than 20 years.
Which means a raft of mid-life updates to the Tesla Model Y are A BIG DEAL – whereas usually a nip ‘n’ tuck for a model a few years into its lifecycle wouldn’t move the needle.
So, what changes are big, what changes are small, have they been successful, and will they be enough to keep Tesla atop the global sales chart?
Over to Top Gear’s Associate Editor, Tom Ford, for the verdict…
