With the new 124 Spider, Fiat has revived a legend born in 1966. It's a genuine roadster with a sleek profile, well-balanced proportions and a low center of gravity. The new Spider is powered by a 1.4-liter, turbo-charged, 103 kW engine.

An SUV from Jaguar? Indeed! Jaguar's total sales have risen by 77% since the launch of the F-Pace. The 25d is powered by Jaguar's first 2-liter, 4-cylinder twin turbo engine, coupled with an eight-speed automatic transmission.

RS - at Audi these two letters stand for high-performance cars. DW tests out the Audi RS 6 Avant Performance. It's got a 4-liter, V8 engine with two turbochargers and an output of 445 kW.

Volvo's R-Design gives this SUV a performance-inspired look and feel. It can go from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.8 seconds and hit a top speed of 220 km/h. The Polestar performance-optimizing software can also boost engine power by 4 kW.

With its unmistakable shape, the Porsche 911 is the ultimate sports car for many. The first open-top 911 was the Targa, which came out in 1965. The Targa quickly became known for its removable roof and characteristic roll bar.
