Dear Omss,
There’s lots of new video content on evo.co.uk with the launch of our latest issue. Our Sound of Speed special – in shops now – celebrates the best sounding cars in the world, and we’ve plenty of video action to bring the noise to life.
Our headline test is a Ferrari 599 GTO v Lexus LFA battle through epic Scottish scenery and on track. See a big picture gallery and find out which is quicker in a straight line here.
We also took four gorgeous convertibles to Italy’s amazing Stelvio Pass. Audi R8 Spyder, Alfa Romeo 8C Spider, Aston Vantage S Roadster or Porsche 911 GTS Cabriolet – which do you think sounds best? Decide for yourself with the help of our video and read a blog from the test here.
We’ve also pitted the Audi RS3 against Volvo’s mad C30 Polestar to find out which holds the ‘hottest hatchback’ title, our BMW 1M Coupe long-termer has been maxed out on the Autobahn and we’ve a video review of the new Maserati GranCabrio Sport.
In the news, there’s a new Porsche 911 GT3 Cup racing car, a second-generation Suzuki Swift Sport and rumours of a hardcore new Lamborghini Gallardo road racer. A Skoda Octavia has also topped 200mph at Bonneville Speed Week, with a little help from evo. Find out more and see our wealth of blogs, picture galleries and video here.
Click here to get all info on the new issue of evo, too. As well as our sonorous celebrations – including a novel way to actually hear the noise as you read – there’s news of a monstrous new Mercedes AMG, an Audi RS6 buying guide and the first outing of a BTCC touring car on evo’s track. How much faster is it than the road car it’s based on? If you've got any views on any of our stories, or the new issue of evo, please contact us via our Facebook page or the evo Twitter account.
