All production vehicles for sale in that calendar year are considered with these recent restrictions:
- The vehicle must be on sale by January
- It must be priced below 2.5 times the average price of a car that year
- The manufacturer must provide an example for testing
- Only substantially changed or new vehicles and the past year's 10 best winners are nominated
The magazine sometimes selects a specific trim and other times a whole family of vehicles.
