How we review cars at SirfCar — our 7-point framework
SirfCar Editorial·3 days ago·5 min read
A review is only useful if it is consistent. Every SirfCar expert review scores a car on the same seven pillars, each out of 10.
The seven pillars
- Safety — NCAP rating, airbags, ADAS, structural integrity.
- Performance — engine response, refinement, gearbox.
- Ride & handling — comfort over broken roads and stability at speed.
- Interior & space — quality, ergonomics, real-world room.
- Features — what you get at each price point.
- Efficiency — real mileage or range, not just ARAI.
- Value — total cost of ownership over five years.
We weight value and safety highest, because that is what owners tell us matters most a year in. See how cars stack up using our comparison tool.
