While most people are worried about what the exterior of a car looks like, it makes sense as a driver to pay at least a little attention to the interior.
Ten cars were honored last week in the prestigious “10 Best Interiors” list from US publication Ward’s Auto, ahead of the magazine’s Interiors Conference next month.
Those selected for recognition were an eclectic mix, with economy vehicles sitting alongside luxury models from the likes of Audi and BMW.
The lesson for automakers seems to be that while a good interior needn’t be hand-stitched leather, it should be well thought out, functional and comfortable.
Ward’s received 51 entries for the awards, and gave scores based on materials, ergonomics, safety, the human-machine interface, comfort, fit and finish, overall value and aesthetics.
For consumers who want to get an idea of what makes an industry-leading interior, Ward’s has uploaded the video reviews to its website.
