Coupe

McLaren set tongues wagging when it unveiled the 720S at the Geneva Motor Show. This latest supercar is built on a brand new chassis, clever aerodynamic elements,​ and some absolutely bonkers performance claims. So what's the story behind that new face?

It's rare for a car manufacturer to truly try break the mold, but BMW's Gran Turismo – or GT – models are notable exceptions. The new 6 Series GT might look awkward, but that hunchback design is there to blend the best bits of sedan, wagon and hatchback body styles in one package.

Rolls-Royce dedicates an incredible amount of time to bespoke versions of its cars, but that wasn't enough for one connoisseur. The result is a stunning two-door tribute to the swept-tail Rolls-Royces of the 1920s.

Everyone wants to get their hands on the Honda Civic Type R, but its turbo engine doen't come cheap. It won't be causing the Type R any trouble on the drag strip, but the Civic Si promises three-quarters the fun at a fraction the cost.

The attention to detail shown in the Rolls-Royce Wraith is unmatched in the motoring world, but even high-end luxury can be improved upon. Given the task of making a more exclusive, special luxury coupe, the design team in Goodwood has tapped into the minds of some British music legends.

What comes to mind when you think of Tata? For most, the first image to pop up is the faceless Nano microcar, although car nerds will also recognize the Indian giant as the latest owner of Jaguar and Land Rover. You can imagine how surprised we were, then, when Tata unveiled the Racemo in Geneva.

VW has dipped its toe into the waters with luxury cars before, but the genre hasn't been kind. The Phaeton has faded and the Passat CC is a great car that no-one bought, but that hasn't deterred VW from giving it one more shot with the Arteon.

​Infiniti is trying to establish performance credentials with cars like the Q60 Red Sport, but so far it hasn't been able to match the Germans. It's not a production car, but the Project Black S hints at a more aggressive future for hotted-up Infiniti coupes.

Ferrari is on a roll at the moment, turning out stunning cars with oodles of power, but it still struggles with names. Unfortunately, things haven't changed on the 812 Superfast. It'll be unbelievably fast and the chassis is smarter than ever, but Superfast? Really?

Potential can be such a fickle thing. On paper, the Infiniti Q60 Red Sport 400 has plenty. It's gorgeous, powerful, and hails from a long line of fun Japanese coupes. Unfortunately, it never quite fulfills its promise.

Launched in 2014, the 4 Series was a break from tradition ​for BMW. It followed the same formula as its predecessor, but the powers that be decided the old formula needed a new name, swapping a 3 Series badge for the 4 Series line. Now, the car has been treated to an subtle update.

The current gen Mercedes E-Class was only launched in January, but the model range has already expanded to include a regular Estate and a high-riding All-Terrain, along with two separate AMG variants. As if that wasn't enough choice, there's now a slinky two-door coupe wearing the E-Class badge.
