Particular success was enjoyed by the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, as it was awarded the “World Car of the Year 2015 Award“. But the celebration didn’t just stop there for the German car maker, because the S-Class Coupe was voted “World Luxury Car 2015”, and the Mercedes-AMG GT sports car picked up the award for “World Performance Car 2015”. Mercedes-Benz was the only automobile manufacturer to make it into the final round of the awards with five vehicles.
This commanding performance is unprecedented in the 11-year history of the “World Car of the Year” awards and serves to reflect the tremendous popularity of the Stuttgart-based brand among their customers. The international jury for these prestigious awards is made up of 75 renowned automotive journalists and it is the most renowned award ceremony in the automotive world. Mercedes-Benz has found favour with the jury in previous years too, as in 2014 the S-Class also won the category of “World Luxury Car”. In 2012 the S 250 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY was the winner in the category “World Green Car”, while the same award was taken back in 2007 by the E 320 BlueTEC.
