  • It’s that time of year again when we name the finest automobiles on planet earth and adorn them with a TG rosette. Yep, the votes have been counted, the arguments have simmered down and the results are in. Unsurprisingly, the class of ’22 is an absolute belter, with everything from single-seater fan cars to retro EV buses, and off-road supercars to trusty hot hatches.
    We’ve never known a year where the innovation and bandwidth of the car industry has been on such dazzling display. As hybrids wedge firmly into the performance car space, EVs infiltrate everything and mature with both range going up and price coming down, design daring continues its rise and pure petrol cars rage against the dying of the light, we’ve been treated to a perfect of storm of new and interesting stuff.
    Join us for a walkaround to explain who’s won what and why, including several never seen before clips and cameos from all three Top Gear telly presenters. Enjoy.

    I can get totally on board overall with this years winners. Unlike last years awards i got no major disagreement with the cars picked/not picked.
    For best company i personally would´ve picked Hyundai, but KIA had some arguments speaking for them as well.
    Nice job, Top Gear! 👍

    When your first car could have won the best sound of the year too (considering it's not a track ONLY car!) then you know you started off STRONG. That Hyundai is also well-deserved to have a category all to itself - it is SUPERB. I thoroughly enjoyed the fact that a 205 GTi Restomod made this list. I totally understand why and would LOVE ONE TOO!! As for the rest of the cars...clap clap - no complaints about the list itself.

      Fun fact, F&F has always been a poser culture. The guy that writes the scripts and directs is one of the most unqualified people to write about street racing culture. He literally knows nothing about cars and just makes it up as he goes. Fun movies built on a total lack of knowledge and understanding, which is why any sort of technical automotive shop talk in the script are just nonsense buzzwords used in the most incorrect manner possible, and became popular memes in real car culture.
      Hyundai has been a major automotive and engineering design standard for decades in the industry. They really are only gaining popularity in the performance world now becasue they are bringing back the idea of retromod 80s design on the public stage instead of building silent sleepers like the kia stinger that inspired Alfa Romeo to make the Giulia (massively underrated sleeper with a Twin-turbo Ferrari engine for only $60k!).
