It seems every new vehicle we drive is both more powerful and more fuel-efficient than its predecessor. More comfortable and more fun. More refined, but similarly priced. Choosing a good car is easier than ever, but choosing the best car keeps getting trickier. That’s why several times a year we round up category standouts and staff favorites and bring them together in lists that help make car shopping easier.
