European brands have rather dominated the finalist lists for the 2016 World Car Awards. Indeed, they account for 60 percent of the vehicles chosen by a jury of 73 international motoring journalists.
Jaguar Land Rover and Volkswagen Group are particularly well represented, as six products from the former and five from the latter appear across the five categories.
The finalists in alphabetical order are:
World Car of the Year
Deserves to win: Jaguar XE or Land Rover Discovery Sport.

Then, to complete the process, the five winners will be declared at the New York International Auto Show on the 24th of March.
