The promise

0

test drives faked

The site has never driven the cars it reviews, and never says it did.

sponsored scores

No manufacturer money behind any verdict, on any page.

Every

number sourced

A figure only earns a place on the page once its source checks out.

01 — The method

Real numbers. Harsh verdicts.

Two halves of the same discipline: the numbers have to be real before the verdict is allowed to be harsh.

Sourced

Every number traced.

Lap times, outputs, prices, and weights come from sources you can check — manufacturer releases, independent tests, and official timing — never from a render, a rumour, or a feeling.

Judged

A verdict, no mercy.

Once the numbers check out, the car gets judged on what it is — not what its badge promises. Great cars score great. The rest hear about it.

  1. 01

    Verify the number

    Every figure is traced to its source before it earns a place on the page. If it cannot be checked, it does not run.

  2. 02

    Build the verdict

    The score follows the numbers, not the badge, the price, or the hype. What the car is shapes what it gets.

  3. 03

    Publish it clean

    Scored reviews carry a score. Previews of unreleased cars carry none — and say so, plainly, on the page.
