The Coventry armoured car (AFV W.19) was a British four wheel drive (4 × 4) armoured fighting vehicle developed at the end of the Second World War as a potential replacement for the Humber and Daimler armoured cars. The Coventry was intended as a common design to be built by the companies manufacturing the two armoured cars.
