New Car Awards 2009

Welcome to the 2009 Auto Express New Car Awards. Our awards are the result of a year’s hard work - something that has seen us drive, test and review more than 1,200 new cars.

The shortlist you’ll find here is just the first step in this year’s improved voting process. In all there are a total of twenty one category trophies up for grabs and each car within this list is in the race for the most important new car award in the business – the Auto Express Car of the Year.
