Best UK Cars 2018
Friday, 9. March 2018
Each year since 2014 Cox Automotive have pulled together 27 leading motoring journalists to decide upon their choice of best cars in the current year, in this case it’s 2018. Their car of the year is the somewhat understated XC60. The car only just pipped the number two car, the Skoda Kodiaq by a single point with the 5 Series BMW coming in 3rd. Alongside the Car of the Year award the XC60 also won Best Medium Crossover award.
The award is not before time. For years the Volvo range has led the field when it comes to safety equipment but they are now shaking off the ‘old person’s’ image and bringing them up to date with some of the best equipment fitted as standard. Well done Volvo. The other winners were:
- Best Supermini – SEAT Ibiza
- Best Small Hatch – VW Golf
- Best Family – Peugeot 3008
- Best Executive – BMW 5 Series
- Best Luxury – Rolls-Royce Phantom
- Best Estate – BMW 5 Series
- Best Small Crossover – Citroen C3 Aircross
- Best Medium Crossover – Volvo XC60
- Best Large Crossover – Skoda Kodiaq
- Best Coupe – Lexus LC
- Best Cabriolet – Mazda MX-5 RF
- Best Hot Hatch – Hyundai i30 N
- Best Performance – Kia Stinger
