As the year rolls along, Mercedes-Benz continues to receive numerous accolades. Just recently, three Mercedes-Benz vehicles were recognized at the 2015 World Car Awards. After analyzing a number of other vehicles, a team of 75 acclaimed journalists from around the world awarded the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe and the Mercedes-AMG GT. These prestigious awards were presented at the legendary New York International Auto Show.

The luxurious Mercedes-Benz C-Class won the "World Car of the Year 2015 Award." Not only does the new C-Class boast an extremely roomy interior, but it also offers a wide range of high-tech safety features. Available as a sedan or a coupe, the C-Class promises to deliver a rewarding driving experience. While the four-cylinder engines provide a perfect balance of efficiency and power, the super-powerful AMG engine is an engineering masterpiece. Even the base trims come packed with several high-end features, including a brilliant COMAND infotainment system and a built-in Wi-Fi hot spot.

Known for its awe-inspiring driving dynamics, the 2015 Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe was chosen as the "World Luxury Car 2015." According to Top Speed, the new S-Class has one of the quietest interiors on the market. Some of the standard luxury features include a high-clarity Burmester audio system, an automatic parallel parking system and two 12.3-inch display screens. In terms of performance, both the turbocharged V-8 engine and the V-12 engine produce an insane amount of power. An adjustable air suspension system enables the S-Class Coupe to ride like a dream. Meanwhile, every driver will surely appreciate the S-Class Coupe’s responsive braking system.

For good reason, the 2015 Mercedes-AMG GT sports car captured the "World Performance Car 2015" award. Equipped with numerous race-bred components, the Mercedes-AMG GT is clearly one of the fastest cars on the road. According the Car and Driver, the high-powered driving machine can hit 60 mph in only 3.5 seconds. When activated, the dynamic exhaust system further enhances the car’s fun factor. The Mercedes-AMG GT’s exotic styling also tends to attract crowds of admirers. Despite the Mercedes-AMG GT’s high-performance credentials, it is still available with several creature comforts. Some of the standard goodies include heated seats, an 8-inch display screen, a rearview camera system and leather upholstery.

Mercedes-Benz now stands as one of the most prestigious automakers in the world. It was the only car manufacturer to have five vehicles in the final round of the competition. In order for a vehicle to win a category at the annual World Car Awards, it must have a lasting impact on the renowned automotive journalists. The S-Class Coupe, the C-Class and the Mercedes-AMG GT proved to be a step above their competitors.
