Judging Process

Supplier and Fleet awards are judged by expert fleet managers and industry representatives, with hands-on experience in using fleet products and services every day, as well as the Business Car editorial team.

Headline and Manufacturing awards will be judged by car market analysts and residual values experts, helping ensure running costs are a key factor in deciding the winning vehicles, as well as driver desirability, and fitness for purpose. They are joined by the Business Car editorial team, who also have experience with the vehicles under consideration.

The panel narrows down the entries to a shortlist of finalists, which will be revealed ahead of the awards ceremony, choosing winners, and in some cases, organisations or vehicles that are highly commended, just missing out on victory.

The winners are then revealed during the awards presentation at the Hilton London Bankside.
