European Car of the Year 2020 Finalists Announced
European Car of the Year 2020 Finalists Announced-January 2024
2023-12-14 EST 02:30:35

The finalists for the 2020 European Car of the Year have been announced. Check them out.

Our very own Hannes Oosthuizen forms part of the 60-strong judging panel and the 2020 winner will be announced at the Geneva Motor Show which takes place in March 2020.

The 7 finalists come from a shortlist of 30 vehicles and it'll be fascinating to see if an electric vehicle can pull off a repeat win. In last year's competition, the Jaguar I-Pace walked away with the overall win and a few category wins too. There are 2 electric entrants this year, with the Porsche Taycan and Tesla Model 3.
