So, which vehicles are in the running? Well, here they are, in alphabetical order: the BMW 1 Series, Ford Puma, Peugeot 208, Porsche Taycan, Renault Clio, Tesla Model 3 and Toyota Corolla.
A second round of voting will follow to determine the overall winner, which will be revealed on 2 March 2020, the eve of the Geneva International Motor Show. The jury comprises some 60 judges representing 23 European countries.
