Lockdown hasn’t stopped Rory from bringing you his video reviews on the latest cars from across the motoring world, and along the way he’s driven some of the absolute best in the business for the Auto Trader YouTube channel. But which is he going to pick as his favourite? And how do you choose when your recent drives include everything from a Ferrari 812 GTS to the Toyota GR Yaris?
In the end his choice is the Taycan Cross Turismo, the new estate version of Porsche’s amazing electric saloon and one with a few special tricks up its sleeve, as Rory reveals in his video. “This electric estate is practical with bags of room in the back for passengers and luggage, it’s astonishingly fast, especially in Turbo S form, it drives phenomenally well on the road, has great range, great charging speed and its all-wheel drive system and gravel mode mean it’s capable of going off the beaten track,” says Rory. “Most importantly, it looks sensational!” He concludes his video review with a simple challenge. “The car is beautiful to look at, practical and obscene amounts of fun to drive,” says Rory. “Your move, Elon!”
