Audi has scored a hat-trick of category wins at the What Car? Used Car of the Year Awards 2019.
The German car maker won Used Family Car of the Year (Audi A3), Used Luxury SUV of the Year ((Audi Q7) and Used Coupé of the Year (Audi TT).
However, the 2017 Mercedes E-Class Estate claimed overall victory. Based on the E-Class saloon launched in 2016, it won over the What Car? judges with its “luxurious and spacious interior, immense comfort and remarkable value-for-money”.
The 15 What Car? Used Car of the Year categories were divided into price points to better reflect the variety of cars available on the used car market.
The final decision on winners was taken by a panel of experts, based on the main criteria of quality, reliability, value and the availability of desirable versions.
