2022 Women’s World Car of the Year awards: judgement criteria

In total, 65 cars were in the running for the 2022 awards, of which individual category winners have been announced. All the models taken into consideration were launched in the calendar year of 2021.

An official statement from the WWCOTY group says that the cars were tested on various parameters, including safety, driving, comfort, technology, design, efficiency, impact on the environment and value for money. The group says that these are the same key traits that a car buyer looks for, when making a purchase, and that none of the nominees is a “woman’s car” because such a category doesn’t exist.
