					<description><![CDATA[The Bentley Continental GTC Azure Hybrid is not the sort of car that begs to be wrung out by the scruff of its neck.

					<description><![CDATA[The BMW 3 Series has long been one of the most successful models in the premium mid-size segment. From autumn, it will face electric competition from within its own ranks in the form of the new BMW i3. This version has nothing in common with the carbon-bodied experiment from 2013. For many, the name BMW [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[First date at the opera Mini has long stood for more than rally heritage, London city life and sporty John Cooper Works models. Alongside the iconic hatch, there is a five-door version and the family-friendly Countryman. Yet the name Aceman still draws a blank for many.

					<description><![CDATA[The Audi RS3 is approaching the end of its lifecycle. Fans of the charismatic five-cylinder engine, with its distinctive 1-2-4-5-3 firing order, should not wait too long. The compact performance icon will soon disappear from the line-up. One possible farewell choice is the RS3 Competition Limited, although the price premium is considerable. Time is running [&#8230;]]]></description>

Multi-million-dollar auctions, relaxed fan gatherings and an exclusive concours competition all come together in the pleasant spring sunshine of Florida. “And… sold,” murmurs auctioneer Lydia Fenet into the hall of [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[With the Eletre X, Lotus presents an unusual blend of plug-in hybrid, electric vehicle and range-extender concept. We drove the new rival to the Porsche Cayenne PHEV. Lotus was once the brand that removed weight rather than disguising it. Company founder Colin Chapman famously preached lightweight engineering like a religion: “Simplify, then add lightness.” The [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[At 2,370 kilograms and with enormous exhaust outlets, the Audi RS5 Avant cuts an imposing figure both visually and on paper. Yet despite its considerable mass, the plug-in hybrid performance estate delivers impressive agility. The Audi RS5 stands broad and muscular on the road.

That is how Daimler Truck describes [&#8230;]]]></description>
