The New York International Automobile Show is pleased to announce that the 2024 WORLD CAR FINALS powered by BREMBO begins with the announcement of the Top Ten and Top Five finalists in six categories. The winners will be announced live during an awards ceremony at the New York International Auto Show on March 27. This year marks the 20th year of the Word Car Awards and the partnership with the New York Auto Show.
“We’re pleased to kick off the New York Auto Show each year by celebrating the winners of the World Car Awards,” said Mark Schienberg, president of NYIAS. Receiving this distinction from 100 of the world’s top automotive journalists is a major victory for all those involved and is a perfect way to open North America’s first and largest-attended auto show. Congratulations to the World Car team on 20 years of excellence, and best of luck to all the finalists!”
The Road to the World Car Awards is an annual journey that follows 100+ distinguished international automotive journalists from 29 countries, as they test-drive, and vote on, the eligible vehicles for the 2024 awards. The jurors’ road-test journey is captured virtually on World Car TV.
