The Nissan Navara is as good as it’s going to get in terms of performance for the time being – having just received an update that includes tougher rear suspension, Apple CarPlay, and a digital speed display. The company is poised to change gear and focus on an “electrified” version of future Nissan Navara models – rather than finding more power from the current twin-turbo diesel 2.3-litre four-cylinder.

Another day, another electric vehicle. This time around it's from Mazda, and it blends all the hallmarks of a sporty city SUV with a fully-electric heart. The MX-30 debuts Mazda's pure-electric e-SkyActiv platform, along with a number of new interior technologies likely to filter through the rest of the Japanese brand's line-up in due course.

The second-generation Subaru Levorg 'prototype' has been leaked just ahead of its debut at the 2019 Tokyo motor show. Technically the car which will be unveiled at the Tokyo show is a "prototype", but it looks practically production ready. This image of the Levorg Prototype was found on the upcoming edition of Japanese magazine Web Car, an advance copy of which was photographed and sent to Carscoops.

The new Toyota Ultra-Compact EV, which will be displayed at the 2019 Tokyo motor show later this month, is one of the first vehicles from the company's pivot toward electric cars, with 10 EVs now due by the early 2020s. At just 2490mm long, 1290mm wide, and 1550mm tall, Toyota's new electric car certainly earns its "ultra-compact" tag. To put it into context, the Ultra-Compact BEV is 205mm shorter and 373mm narrower than the Smart ForTwo currently available in Europe.

BMW has published more teaser images for the new 2 Series Gran Coupe this week on social media, ahead of an anticipated reveal at the Los Angeles motor show. The trio of pictures, posted on the company's Twitter profile, reveal the front, boot profile, and tail-light signature of the first-ever compact 'Gran Coupe' model.
