Last week, the Sunday Times Motor Awards, the inaugural awards celebrating the best in motoring, revealed their 2018 winners.
Launched this year, the Sunday Times Motor Awards shortlisted their favourite contenders, and asked readers to vote for the overall winner in most of the categories, including family cars to sports cars, green machines to tech innovations. They even asked readers to vote for the best dog-friendly vehicle!
More than 200,000 votes were cast. Not all were selected by the public: experts at the Sunday Times decided on the British-built Car of the Year, Luxury Car of the Year and Motoring Personality of the Year. Jeremy Clarkson also named his favourite car of the year.
