VW Group dominates the “Das Goldene Lenkrad“ awards
London, November 18, 2025, (Oilandgaspress) ––The Volkswagen Group is the most successful manufacturer at the 49th edition of “The Golden Steering Wheel”. Every year, the German trade magazine AUTO BILD and the BILD am SONNTAG newspaper recognise outstanding new models with this award. Of the twelve trophies awarded in total, six went to Volkswagen Group brands. The core brand Volkswagen achieved a historic success with four category wins. No other brand has ever received so many “Golden Steering Wheels” in a single year. Two further prizes were awarded to the CUPRA and Porsche brands.

AUTO BILD and BILD am SONNTAG have awarded the “Golden Steering Wheel” each year since 1976, and it is considered one of Europe’s most prestigious automotive awards. A total of 72 new models were available for selection for the “Golden Steering Wheel 2025”. The readers of AUTO BILD, its European partner magazines and the BILD am SONNTAG newspaper were able to determine the best vehicles of the year in a preliminary poll. The top three vehicles in each category were then tested by a jury at the Lausitzring circuit (Germany). In addition to trade journalists from the BILD Group, this included racing drivers and celebrity car enthusiasts. Ratings were awarded in 17 categories in the areas of drive, chassis, design, quality, sustainability, price-performance ratio, safety and consumption.
