HIGHVELD – Mercedes-Benz recently won three categories at the prestigious World Car Awards 2015.
The C-Class Mercedes was chosen as the World Car of the Year and Messrs Christoph Horn, head of Global Communication Passenger Cars Mercedes-Benz and Rob Moran, director of Mercedes-Benz USA Communications, received the awards on behalf of the brand with the three pointed star at a ceremony held in New York.
Mercedes-Benz’s S-Class Coupé was voted World Luxury Car 2015, while the Mercedes-AMG GT sports car picked up the award for World Performance Car 2015.
Mercedes-Benz was the only automobile manufacturer to make it into the final round of the awards with five vehicles.
This commanding performance is unprecedented in the 11 year history of the World Car of the Year awards and serves to reflect the tremendous popularity of the Stuttgart-based brand among their customers.
The international jury for these prestigious awards is made up of 75 renowned automotive journalists.
Mercedes-Benz has found favour with the jury in previous years too.
Last year the S-Class won the category World Luxury Car and in 2012 the S 250 CDI Blue EFFICIENCY was the winner in the category World Green Car, while the same award was taken in 2007 by the E 320 BlueTEC.
