Amazing handling, responsive and uncharacteristically reliable, people who have them LOVE THEM. The all new 2016 Mazda MX-5 has it all and has just been awarded “WORLD CAR of the YEAR” .

A 73-strong team of jurors choose an initial entry list of 23 vehicles. After exacting scrutiny, the group is slimmed down to a shortlist of 10. More recently the ‘Top Three in the World’ list was released, giving the finalists that brings us to the New York Auto Show awards ceremony. The list included; Audi R8 Coupe, Honda Civic Type-R hatch and the Mercedes-AMG C 63 Coupe. Without further ado…

Five 2016 Mazda vehicles received top honors in the New York Daily News Auto Awards, winning more awards than any other car manufacturer.

Award-winning vehicles were selected by a panel of nine distinguished automotive journalists that were given a single over-arching directive: “Within each category, rank the vehicle in the order that you would recommend them to your family, members, friends and co-workers.”

According to New York Daily News Autos, the awarded vehicles are “the best cars, SUVS, trucks and vans you can buy today.”
