Finalists for the coveted Car of The Year 2020 award have been revealed.
Set to be crowned on March 2, 2020, at the Geneva Motor Show, this year’s line-up looks set to be one of the most fiercely-contested yet.
First up is the latest BMW 1 Series — a revolutionary car for the firm, becoming its first front-wheel-drive production car. With impressive powertrains and loads of kit on-board, it could steal the show.
Then there’s the Ford Puma. This reborn nameplate is returning as a crossover, boasting quirky looks and, thanks to its Fiesta underpinnings, is almost certain to be sweet to drive too.
Following that is the Peugeot 208. This head-turning supermini is one of the most cutting-edge in its class, and the impressive all-electric e-208 will surely give it a boost for the title.
With the Porsche Taycan there though, the EV will have a lot to prove. Porsche’s first EV has been met with great reception since its reveal, and looks to be one of the most in-demand cars of 2020.
The new Renault Clio is on the list, too. Though its looks are evolutionary rather than revolutionary, a total cabin overhaul has taken the Clio to a new height of luxury and makes it one of the most appealing out there.
Tesla’s Model 3 could steal the show, too. This EV made a surprise appearance as on the UK’s best-selling cars in September, and continues to be a favourite amongst tech heads.
Last, but by no means least, is the Toyota Corolla. This British-built hybrid machine has impressive consumers and critics alike since its revival earlier this year, and looks well-poised to challenge for the crown.
Who will win the Car of The Year 2020, then? All will be revealed come March…
