Jaguar C-X16
Winner, Reader Award
Car buyers also get their say at the What Car? Awards. The winner of our Reader Award - for the most exciting car to be launched in 2012 - is the stunning Jaguar C-X16.
From a shortlist of 15 cars due to go on sale this year, Jaguar’s rival to the Porsche Cayman was the clear favourite in our exclusive online poll. The C-X16 will be unveiled as a production car at the Geneva motor show in the spring and will go on sale by the end of the year, with prices expected to start at around £50,000.
Subaru’s new sporty coupé, the BRZ, has also caught your eye, securing second place in our poll. The BRZ, with its promise of great handling, sleek looks and £25,000 price, has clearly struck a chord with whatcar.com’s readership.
So, too, has the Dacia Duster, which came third. Why is this Indian-built, Romanian SUV exciting? Simple: you get a lot of car for less than £10,000. It’s truly a car for the times that lie ahead.
