Volkswagen Golf Mk7 Wins European Car Of The Year 2013
The new Golf 7 has been crowned European Car of the Year 2013! With 414 votes, the all new VW Golf Mk7 overtook other vehicles such as the Toyota GT 86 and the Subaru BRZ, but also the Volvo V40 who took the third place.
The vote for “Car of the Year” is one of the oldest and most renowned in Europe. The best new cars have been given prizes annually since 1964. The panel of judges, consisting of 58 automotive journalists from 22 countries, had nominated eight candidates before hand that would enter the final run.
They were tested and compared and evaluated during the last few months under a broad range of criteria, such as fuel efficiency, comfort, safety, driving properties, functionality, design and technological progress.
In the 50th round of the traditional competition, the new Golf came out on top before its seven competitors, garnering a total score of 414 in the final vote and the second place winner got a score of 212 less points. The Ford B-Max followed closely, but the biggest surprise is that the 2013 Mercedes-Benz A-Class was ranked fifth. Two Volkswagen models have received the coveted prize before: the Golf in 1992 and the Polo in 2010.
