NEW CAR AWARDS 2022: HERE ARE YOUR WINNERS / AUTO EXPRESS

The Auto Express 2022 New Car Awards.

The award categories are designed to mirror the UK car market and the kind of vehicles you are buying.

It’s the best of the best and showcases which vehicles are proving to be the most popular and “flying off the shelves” / (or forecourt’s if you prefer), more quickly than others.

Winners were only concluded after very rigorous and exhaustive testing, leading us to a penultimate list of winners that can only help you when it comes to choosing your next vehicle.

Everything from comfort, quality and technology to performance and handling, the standard in the new car market, has never been higher. Vehicles just keep getting better and that can, of course only be good news for consumers.

Below are the winners that are available from the Glyn Hopkin Group.
