What Car? December issue cover

A new issue of What Car? is now on sale, and it's our Used Car of the Year Awards special. Whether you're in the market for an SUV or a sports car, or something in between, we've got bargain buys in every category – and from a pool of outstanding winners, we've named one as our overall Used Car of the Year.

If your focus is on new cars instead, then we've got you covered with a test of the latest SUVs, as the new Peugeot e-3008 and Tesla Model Y take on the Kia Sportage to see if electric or petrol power is best if you're taking a long trip – we dispatched our road test team to France to find out.

Plus, the full hybrid Nissan X-Trail takes on the mild hybrid Peugeot 5008 to see which frugal family runabout best deserves your money.
