The independent AUTOBEST Jury grows26 / 09 / 2016

AUTOBEST is growing from 26 to 31 represented countries. This expansion is part of the “Next Level Approach” strategy inaugurated two years ago. The new five members represent Denmark, Finland, Germany, Malta and Switzerland and are all outstanding motoring writers, car experts and respected voices in their countries. AUTOBEST is keeping its philosophy of only one journalist representing each country. With 31 member countries, the majority of the European population is represented by the Autobest Jury.

With this step, announced here in Paris at the Mondial de L”Automobil, we consolidated the leading position of AUTOBEST as a full-size European Independent Motoring Jury. The ‘Best Buy Car of Europe’ concept is now covering all of the relevant markets of Europe.  This latest move is welcomed by the consumers and auto industry. It comes just one year after our significant enlargement announced last year in Frankfurt at the IAA Motor Show. We will develop our concept, carefully looking to the main trends in the industry.  We will continuously monitor the European customers’ needs and will always come with awards assessing all these.”  Dan Vardie, Founder and Chairman stated.

Stay tuned! More info will be available on September 29-th, 9:00 CET.
