Auto Express New Car Awards 2015: the winners

The past 12 months have been among the busiest and most exciting ever when it comes to new cars. From city cars to supercars, there has been an onslaught of new arrivals to tempt buyers into showrooms.

Once again our team of experienced road testers has run the rule over every newcomer, testing more than 300 new models over the past year. And over these pages we celebrate the best of the best, as we name the standout performers in our annual New Car Awards in association with Warrantywise. 

For the New Car Awards 2015 we took the winners to the Rockingham race track in Northants, one of the UK’s most exciting circuits, for our celebratory COTY photoshoot and the fantastic images that resulted can be seen in the galleries attached to each individual category page.

On this page you can discover the best cars in each of our awards categories and the overall winner of the Auto Express Car of the Year title for 2015. You'll also find special awards for the Car Design of the Year (sponsored by Lister cars) and the Car Advertising Campaign of the Year that were voted for by Auto Express readers.

There's a special award for the best car brand on Social Media and one for the best in-car technology innovation. Finally, we celebrate the best performers in the 2015 instalment of our Driver Power customer satisfaction survey and admit two new entrants to the Auto Express Hall of Fame.

As we've said, it's been an incredible 12 months in the world of new cars and we're delighted to be able to celebrate the pick of the achievements with our 2015 New Car Awards.
