Best new cars 2019: models worth waiting for

From an electric Mini to an all-new Land Rover Defender. The best new cars of 2019 will revolutionise the roads

This year heralds a revolution for some of the best-known cars on the road. Electric power, 21st century design and cutting-edge technology will transform familiar vehicles into the future of motoring.

Among the models due to arrive in 2019 is an electric version of the Mini, an all-new relaunch of the Land Rover Defender - the first for 70 years - and a brand new Volkswagen Golf.

There will be a new Ferrari, Porsche 911 and Mercedes hypercar. Almost as exciting are the best-sellers due for replacement, including the Nissan Juke, BMW 1 Series, Range Rover Evoque and Renault Clio, which has just been revealed.

But the biggest trend of the year is the wave of new electric cars. As well as the Mini, you’ll also see Audi, Mercedes, Porsche, Honda and Polestar (Volvo’s electric car brand) launching battery-powered cars, the beginning of a new dawn in driving that will only continue to expand and improve into 2020 and beyond.

Read on to find out whether it’s worth waiting for a new car in 2019, or looking for a great deal on a model that will soon be replaced.
