We award the best of the best in the Automotive industry

General

As the automotive industry continues to evolve with increasing innovation and sustainability, recognising excellence within  this sector becomes ever more significant. In this spirit, we proudly introduce the Company Vehicle Car of the Year Awards,  an institution dedicated to celebrating the finest vehicles across a myriad of categories catered specifically for business and  commercial use.

This year’s awards encompass nine distinct categories, each representing a critical segment of the business vehicle market.  Our expert panel evaluates an array of factors including performance, efficiency, innovation, comfort, and value and  all with one key phrase in mind – are they fit for purpose.

Compact Small Business Car of the Year
This category acknowledges the compact vehicles that are perfect for small businesses requiring efficiency and convenience.  With a focus on fuel economy, ease of navigation in urban environments, and cost-effectiveness, the vehicles  considered here excel in providing a reliable means of transportation for business owners and their teams.

Compact Small SUV of the Year
Offering greater versatility and a higher driving position while maintaining a compact footprint, the Compact Small SUV of the  Year award goes to vehicles that balance utility with manoeuvrability. These SUVs provide businesses the flexibility of  carrying goods and passengers without compromising on fuel efficiency and urban agility.

Medium SUV of the Year
Medium SUVs have gained popularity for their spacious interiors and robust performance. This category is dedicated to those  vehicles that offer excellent cargo space and advanced safety features, making them suitable for businesses that  require dependability and comfort over long distances or varied terrains.

Large SUV of the Year
In the Larger SUV category, we assess vehicles designed for maximum passenger comfort and storage capacity, suitable for  transporting larger teams or equipment. These vehicles are recognised for their superior power, luxury features, and  adaptability in demanding conditions.

Executive Car of the Year
Tailored for business leaders and executives, the Executive Car of the Year category focuses on vehicles that symbolise  prestige and comfort. These vehicles are judged on their luxurious features, cutting-edge technology, and ability to provide a smooth and impressive ride.

EV of the Year
Electric Vehicles are transforming the automotive landscape, and our EV of the Year award highlights those that excel in  sustainability while offering performance and range that cater to business needs. This category applauds the innovation at the forefront of green transport solutions.

Ute of the Year
Recognising vehicles designed for utility, the Ute of the Year award celebrates those that offer the perfect blend of power,  durability, and practicality. Utes are essential for businesses requiring a reliable workhorse capable of hauling equipment and goods efficiently.

Van of the Year
Vans play a crucial role for businesses handling deliveries and transportation of larger goods. This category focuses on cargo capacity, reliability, and operational costs, highlighting vehicles that offer unmatched utility and organisation for commercial use.

The pinnacle of our awards, the Overall Car of the Year, goes to a vehicle that surpasses expectations across all criteria,  demonstrating exceptional versatility, performance, and innovation. This vehicle exemplifies the ideal blend of all attributes businesses seek in their fleet.

The Company Vehicle Car of the Year Awards not only appreciate the vehicles that empower professionals but also stimulate advancement in quality, design, and technology within the industry.
