World Car Finals recently announced the finalists’ for their 2020 awards. Porsche swept a number of categories in the “Top Three In The World” finalists. Representing the best of the best, the World Car Finals are chosen by a jury of 86 international automotive journalists.

The Road to the World Car Awards documents the process; an annual journey following the jurors as they test-drive, and vote on, the eligible vehicles for the 2020 awards season.

Take a look at the announcement:

Porsche is well represented all around. For “World Luxury Car” the three finalists are: MY 2020 Porsche 911, Porsche Taycan, and Mercedes-Benz EQC.

And the final three for “World Performance Car” is all Porsche: MY 2020 Porsche 718 Spyder/Cayman GT4, Porsche 911, and the Porsche Taycan.

The World Car Awards be announced at the opening of the 2020 New York International Auto Show on April 8. This marks the 15th year of the World Car Awards’ partnership with the popular auto show.

Another highlight on the New York auto show schedule is the Global Trends Report, compiled by The World Car Awards, Cision Insights, and Autoneum. The report is the result of the rigorous testing and research done over the six months, and a look what lies ahead on the horizon of auto tech and innovation.

“We are constantly striving to set industry standards in automotive noise and heat protection,” says Autoneum CEO, Matthias Holzammer. “It is thus a great recognition for us that the majority of finalist models once again benefit from our multifunctional components for acoustic and thermal management.”

We will be on the scene at the New York show with plenty of Porsche action, so stay tuned.

The Road to the World Car Awards will keep rolling on after New York. World Car Garage will be held at the 2020 British Motor Show in August of 2020. World Car Garage will celebrate the 2020 winners, as well as give insight as to what vehicles are likely to stand out for the 2021 model year.

We can say that it’s a safe bet we’ll be seeing a lot more Porsche next year and in the years to come.
