The Kia EV9 was elected as the Women’s Car of the Year (WWCOTY), this Friday, International Women’s Day.
The choice of the Women’s Car of the Year, which has been taking place since 2009, was made by a panel composed exclusively of 75 female automotive journalists, including a Portuguese representative, who tested and evaluated all the candidate models.
“This year’s election was particularly difficult due to the excellent level of all the candidates. Each of the finalists showed enough merits to win the trophy. The Kia EV9 won over its rivals for being a vehicle capable of meeting the needs of consumers worldwide”, emphasized Marta García, executive president of WWCOTY.
