Statement

We are preparing for the next year the 20-th Anniversary of AUTOBEST. In these two decades, AUTOBEST became the largest independent motoring media in Europe and in the world by the number of countries represented – 31! The `AUTOBEST- Best Buy Car of Europe` award is the most important automotive accolade, addressing to more than 80% of the European car consumers.

AUTOBEST Jury is the world champion in exploring the new frontiers of mobility, the first independent motoring media organization in the world who clearly stated the future of EV’s- pls see the AUTOBEST Credo released on February 1, 2017- and asking the right question about `how we produce the electricity on board of the automobile?` AUTOBEST with the other prizes – including the newest one `The Future is Here` – and other projects- ECOBEST Challenge, AUTOBEST SUMMIT Series, AUTOBEST Charity Fund, Miss A & Mr B cartoon personages, and many other initiatives- is the most complex and relevant independent motoring media organization in the world.

We see many of our ideas, awards and initiatives becoming a source of inspiration for other colleagues and media organizations, which we see it as a compliment and confirmation of our creative work. We are very proud about our AUTOBEST Awards Gala, the key global event of the motoring media industry today. The latest edition of this February in Mainz, Germany, was another proof about our way of helping many millions of car consumers to be correctly informed about the key achievements of the industry and how to interpret the disruptive future. We call it `The AUTOBEST way`!
