This is my second lease car through Select Car Leasing. My Account Manager was Jason Hattingh and I couldn’t have wished for a better person to deal with. From start to finish Jason was amazing and nothing was too much trouble for him during my journey. Everything was clearly explained to me, all phone calls were answered quickly, I received swift responses if I needed information and assistance. Jason’s after sales service proved to be just as positive when I had a minor technical problem which he resolved immediately for me. Jason is an excellent ambassador for Select Car Leasing and his Customer Service skills and support provided are indeed second to none. Many thanks Jason

The coupe-SUV is a trend started by the big German brands. BMW brought out the X5-derived X6, and Mercedes-Benz followed suit with the GLE Coupe before Audi jumped on that particular bandwagon with its Q8. Even Porsche created a more rakish version of the Cayenne to slake customers’ thirst for luxury SUVs with a slightly sportier shape.
Not only has that idea spread outside of Germany, but it has trickled down to smaller and less premium models. Renault has created a (stretched) coupe version of the Captur called the Arkana, and Skoda’s new electric SUV, the Enyaq, now also has a coupe form. By the same token, Volkswagen’s electric SUV, the ID.4, has spawned a more saloon-shaped variant called the ID.5.
And even lower down the VW range is this: the Taigo. Based on the popular T-Cross, it comes with a slanted rear window and a slightly lower roofline, designed to make it look a little more purposeful. VW says it has managed to achieve this sportier look without drastically affecting the T-Cross’ practicality credentials, but can that really be the case?
