The World Car Awards is an award-giving body launched in 2004 “to recognize, reward and inspire automotive excellence, leadership, and innovation in a rapidly changing automotive industry on a global scale.” It consists of jurors from a diverse pool of motoring journalists across the globe. There are several categories, but the most prestigious is the World Car of the Year (WCOTY).

To be eligible for this award, a vehicle must have 10,000 units produced per year; must be priced below what’s considered luxury in its target markets; must be available in at least two major markets (China, Europe, India, Japan, South Korea, Latin America, and the USA) on at least two continents; and must be sold from January 1, 2022, until March 30 this year.
