The top 30 candidates have been nominated by the jury for the Car of the Year 2014 award. By the mid-December, the jury will reveal seven shortlisted vehicles out of 30, and the winner will be announced on March 3, 2014 on the eve of the Geneva Motor Show.

The jury bench, consisting of 58 members representing 22 European countries, has shortlisted the 30 contenders for the 2014 Car of the Year award. The 30 vehicles are new models, which are already on sale or will hit the market by the end of the year in at least five European countries. Another condition for these cars to remain in competition is that these cars should have a minimum of 5,000 units for foreseeable annual sales. Back in March, the Jury had selected the Volkswagen Golf VII as Car of the Year 2013.
