Before we break for the holiday, we assessed the nine finalists for our Best Car To Buy 2024 award that will be announced Jan. 3, 2024. It’s a great list for shoppers, but a tough call for our five editorial judges to agree on, ranging from the value-oriented 2024 Chevy Trax to the evolutionary 2024 Kia EV9 three-row crossover SUV. We also recapped some of the 2024 changes to some of Britain’s finest vehicles.
Here’s what moved us.
