VOTE: What is your favourite car of 2018?

From electric SUVs to petrol-guzzling speedsters, we want your selection to decide 'The National' Car of the Year

Petrol heads need not fear that the Aston Martin DBS Superleggera will become fully-automated anytime soon. Aston Martin.

VOTING CLOSED – ANY VOTES MADE AFTER THURSDAY DECEMBER 20 AT 5PM WILL NOT BE COUNTED

You can have your say on The National's Car of the Year by voting in our poll below.

It has been a momentous year in the world of motoring, with 2018 proving something of a watershed for mainstream car manufacturers embracing the electric-vehicle revolution, not least in the SUV sector.

But the UAE remains one of the planet's top markets for automotive exotica – and that is reflected by the fact that we have driven our fair share of supercars and hypercars in the past 12 months.

We haven't forgotten some of the more mundane motors, either – one of the top picks is a hot hatch very much in reach of the average car buyer's budget.
