ubitricity to sponsor What Car? Car of the Year Awards 2020

Nov 8, 2019 | Press Releases

London, November 8, 2019: ubitricity has joined the group of sponsors of the What Car? Car of the Year Awards 2020. These awards are the most influential in the industry, thanks to What Car?’s unique position as a trusted, independent and expert voice in car reviewing. An Award win resonates on every level, both within the hierarchy of the car makers and with potential customers.

The magazine What Car? was first published in 1973 and has been a trusted advisor for car buyers and enthusiasts ever since. In 1978, the Car of the Year Awards were added as an annual feature, honouring the best car in each market sector introduced to the market throughout the year. The most successful brand in the history of the award is Volkswagen, with six awards to their name as of 2019.

Over the last years, electric cars have become an increasingly important essay topic for the awards as well, with the Kia e-Niro taking the prize for best EV in 2019. We are excited to see who makes this year’s cut and take part in shaping the future of the automotive industry – with electricity, of course!

Read up on next year’s award and this year’s winners here.
