2019 was packed with launches of important family cars, EVs and exciting new sports cars you’ll want to own
Kia XCeed
Price: £20,795 - £29,195
The Kia XCeed is the final piece of the Kia Ceed jigsaw, which also includes two estate models - the SW and Proceed. Priced from £20,795, the new model is dubbed a ‘crossover utility vehicle’ (CUV) by Kia, sitting higher and featuring more interior space than the Ceed hatchback. It’s front-wheel drive with a range of petrol and diesel engines made available when it was launched. A plug-in hybrid version is due in 2020.

Lexus UX
Price: £29,905 - £40,335
Aiming for a slice of the small SUV pie, Lexus finally released the UX crossover. It’s positioned at the premium end of the class, hence the high price, but you do get a classy interior and a good driving experience. Hybrid is the only option, which will appeal to company-car drivers and buyers moving away from diesel.
