The Porsche 911 has been named ‘Performance Car of the Year 2026’ by motoring magazine Auto Express at its annual awards ceremony in London.
The expert panel at Auto Express ranked the 911 as its favourite performance car overall, praising its benchmark driving experience. The responsive flat-six engine and agile chassis of the 911 lies at the core of the model’s appeal, while the 2+2 seating and versatile luggage capacity offer remarkable everyday usability.
Auto Express judges commented: “Every single 911 feels special and drives like a dream, yet is pliant enough to be used every single day. It really is the do-it-all sports car, whichever variant you opt for.....quite simply, it’s the best sports car you can use every day.”
Since 1963, the 911 has been on sale and the latest iteration takes its combination of comfort and dynamic performance to new heights, making the car a great companion on the road as well as around a circuit.
Furthermore, the all-round appeal of the Cayenne was also recognised, being 'Highly Commended' in the Premium SUV category. “If you are looking for an SUV that offers genuine driving fun, then the Cayenne continues to fill the brief.”
