Intoxicated by the beautiful coupe

The lead feature of the June issue focuses on “The Beautiful World of Coupes.” We examine the revived new Aston Martin Vanquish from various angles, and also provide a detailed report on the open-top Volante.

Also worth checking out are comparisons with the first-generation Vanquish (2007), which is over 18 years old, domestic impressions of the Bentley Continental GT Speed and GTC Speed, and a comparative test drive report of the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 Coupe, both in its pure engine and plug-in hybrid form.

The second feature is “SUV NOW.” Don’t miss our serious track impressions of the 635 PS super SUV, the Land Rover Range Rover Sport SV, and the battle between two best-selling cars, the BMW X3 M50 and the Mercedes-AMG GLC 43. We’ll also be taking a closer look at the latest hot new models, including the Morgan Plus Four, BMW Alpina B4 GT, and Toyota Crown Estate.

Return of the Champion

[AMAZING COUPE] The Vanquish is back. Aston Martin's V12 flagship has been the DBS since 2019. However, from now on, the Vanquish will once again take on that role. We test the capabilities of this "conqueror," which has now fulfilled its true worth, on the streets of Japan. — [AMAZING COUPE] The Vanquish is back.

We test the capabilities of this “conqueror” on the roads of Japan, which has now achieved even greater true value.

Continental GTC & GT break new ground

[AMAZING COUPE] The Bentley Continental GT and its convertible GTC have entered their fourth generation. Their powertrain is a plug-in hybrid that combines a 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo with a motor. This time, we drove two sports-grade "Speed" cars side-by-side into town to see for ourselves what they are really like. — [AMAZING COUPE] The Bentley Continental GT and its convertible GTC have entered their fourth generation.

This time, we took two sports-grade Speed models into town in a row to see for ourselves what they are really like.

Which AMG GT 63 Coupe will you choose?

[AMAZING COUPE] The Mercedes-AMG super sports car "GT 63 Coupe" now comes with the first plug-in hybrid model in the series. This is the "E Performance" model, which boasts a powerful system output of 816 PS/1420 Nm.

The strongest SUV appears

[SUV NOW] The Range Rover Sport takes the sportiness of the Range Rover to the next level. So, how good is this third-generation model, reborn with an advanced architecture that even supports full electric drive? We tested its on-road and off-road performance at a test drive event held at Fuji Speedway. — [SUV NOW] The Range Rover Sport SV takes the sportiness of the Range Rover to the next level.

The Morgan Plus Four: A surprising evolution

[CLOSE-UP] Morgan is often talked about for its styling and driving performance, which have remained unchanged since the 1930s. However, the Plus Four, which underwent a minor change last year, boldly modernized its exterior. It is said that its driving performance has also been updated. Let's take a closer look at the actual car. — [CLOSE-UP] Morgan is often talked about for its styling and driving performance, which have remained unchanged since the 1930s.

The M4 Competition is a blast to drive with AWD!

[Harsh Review] Tetsuya Tanaka and Seiji Ara are both top racing drivers of the day. Only these two can speak frankly about the performance of sports cars. The test location is Tsukuba Circuit.
