Tesla wins car of year award

Tesla’s Model 3 has been crowned UK Car of the Year 2020, making it back-to-back wins for electric vehicles at the awards after the Jaguar I-PACE’s victory in 2019.

After emerging triumphant as Best Executive car when the category winners were announced last month, the Tesla battled it out against eight other cars for the top title. The Kia e-Niro finished one point behind the Tesla, ensuring the closest winning margin in the awards’ history.
