2020 Editors' Choice: The Best New Cars, Trucks, SUVs, and Minivans

From Car and Driver

Here at Car and Driver, we've cultivated an exceedingly knowledgeable and passionate team of automotive experts. Since 1955, these invaluable resources combined with C/D's rich history of comprehensive vehicle testing have helped us become one of the most respected voices in the industry. Our Buyer's Guide team utilizes this institutional knowledge to deliver the most comprehensive shopping advice you'll find anywhere.

Over the course of the previous year, our editors have had the pleasure—and sometimes the pain—of driving and testing hundreds of new vehicles. We've counted cupholders, rated seat comfort, loaded in luggage to measure cargo room, and taken the vehicles to our test track to see how well they accelerated, braked, and cornered. Those evaluations and our collective opinions feed where we rank the vehicles in every class.

These Editors' Choice picks represent roughly 20 percent of the vehicles currently on the market. They include those named to our 2020 10Best Cars and Trucks list as well as vehicles that are highly ranked in their respective segment. These stellar cars, trucks, and SUVs are the ones we recommend, and they are the ones we believe should be at the top of your shopping list.
