Just enough to establish a representative lap and suss idiosyncrasies, not enough to set a record. How easy is it to get up to speed in a given car? How communicative is the car? Is it hard to learn the quirks? Under the watchful eyes of our testing staff, every PCOTY contender got a quick warm-up session to set tire pressures, then no more than seven timed laps. We wanted to stress accessibility and adaptability. When you buy a new car, a professional’s lap time at any track is an interesting metric, but it’s rarely reflective of a normal person’s experience.
We did this for a reason, and it wasn’t to build my ego. When it came to lap times, we enlisted a licensed club racer with no Thunderhill experience: me. Our current method gave the staff a chance to drive every car in similar conditions, learning their limits in a safe, controlled environment. Past PCOTY contests have tested cars on the road first, then trekked to a closed course. You might be wondering why we elected to conduct track testing first this year.

Beyond sheer pace, a car has to bring emotion to the table. Outright speed and testing numbers are part of the package, but they don’t determine the winner.To pick a winner, we used the following criteria: PCOTY is about looking to the future and finding the car that provides the most hope for the enthusiast: a machine that offers everything you expect of a modern vehicle yet still tugs at the heart. While some of these candidates naturally worm into our hearts, this is more than a popularity contest-the award doesn’t simply go to the machine we like the most or the one we think is the coolest.
