As one PSA manager recently pointed, the 205, first model in the saga of modern-era small Peugeots, lost the CotY award to Fiat Punto by a small margin 36 years ago. New Peugeot 208, Car of the Year 2020, stages kind of a cold and distant revenge in the segment, even if the manufacturer has not been short of CotY titles lately: three now since 2014.

Winner with 250 points only after counting its top marks, Jaguar I-Pace has achieved a surprising feat in a contest usually characterized by down-to-earth criteria as value for money. But jurors greatly appreciated another top preference reason in CotY: innovation. The enjoyable Alpine A110, with the same amount of points, has also flown well over its affordability and seating limitation. And the Kia Ceed, with 247 points, was very close to win too.

The XC40 obtained a first Car of the Year award for Volvo, as announced in Geneva International Motor Show, prior to the opening of the show in Palexpo. The appealing SUV offer, a brilliant complement to XC90 and XC60 models, had 325 points and 24 individual top votes after a rather lonely race in front of the Seat Ibiza, which received 242 points. BMW 5-series (226 points) took the third position among the seven finalists.
