Every single Kia Stinger GT that arrives is immediately sold, giving the company the best kind of problem with its performance halo -- supply. The company has sold about 2000 units in around a year since the big rear-drive liftback sedan arrived, and it has clearly changed how people see its brand. A bonafide muscle car is worth its weight in gold, meaning the 272kW twin turbocharged V6 GT version is the one doing the heavy lifting, compared to the more modest turbo-four.

Electrification is inevitable and, while it's a big departure from traditional performance vehicles, the head of AMG is excited for the future of electrification. Speaking with CarAdvice at the 2018 Paris motor show, Tobias Moers, the chairman of the management board of Mercedes-AMG said that he's also working hard to bring that future nearer.

With the covers taken off at the 2018 Paris motor show, and the new BMW 8 Series sitting resplendent among the raft of new product on the BMW stand, you could be forgiven for asking: what took so long?

Citroen Australia has confirmed it will be bringing the C5 Aircross to our market in the second half of next year, debuting the company's new comfort-focused Progressive Hydraulic Cushion suspension system locally. Serving as the French brand's new flagship in Australia, the C5 Aircross will compete in the top-selling medium SUV segment, currently occupied by the likes of the Mazda CX-5, Nissan X-Trail, Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V, along with the related Peugeot 3008.
