Well, there weren’t specifically any criteria that we referenced in order to determine which vehicles fit in these categories.

Of course, we couldn’t just pick cars with our hearts. The cars we chose, even if it didn’t win another category, had to blow our expectations out of the water and possess that special desirability factor that makes our hearts yearn for more.

Now do you get the picture? Great! Let’s crack on.


BEST VALUE

BYD Sealion 7

WINNER:
BYD Sealion 7

This isn’t the best-selling car of 2025 for no reason. When the BYD Sealion 7 first went on sale, it took Singapore by storm.

A practical, stylish, and family-friendly SUV for under SGD$200,000? It’s no small wonder there are thousands on our roads now. And being on sale for just over a year, those numbers are just astonishing.

No contest then; this is your value king of 2025.


EDITOR’S CHOICE

G-wagon

WINNER:
Mercedes-Benz G580

The Mercedes-Benz G580 will always have a special place in our hearts. Not that it is big and luxurious, but rather, electric or not, the G-Class remains the car to own if you want to look cool. It represents success, attitude and individuality.

It keeps the original character alive while delivering smooth, fast electric performance. It is luxurious, iconic and still turns heads everywhere it goes. A classic that has entered the future without losing itself.


OVERACHIEVER OF THE YEAR

BYD Sealion 7

WINNER:
BYD Sealion 7

Similar to our rationale in the ‘Best Value’ category above, the BYD Sealion 7 simply dominated the market when it arrived.

Everyone was buying one, and cars were moving off the lot faster than they were kept in the showroom. This is a insanely impressive feat, and we strongly feel that BYD deserves this prestigious award.


BEST SOUND SYSTEM

WINNER:
AVATR 11

It may not have the largest audio array or highest quantity of speakers, but what the Avatr 11 delivers on is sound immersion.

When you’re driving along, you genuinely feel like you’re part of a concert, and achieving that kind of surround experience is nothing short of impressive.

We love it, and we want more. A fantastic car for the audiophiles.
