Editor's choice: Lexus CT200h Voter's choice: Lexus CT200h
It was a head to head fight between these unlikeliest of contenders but in the end the Lexus managed to just edge ahead of the Mini. Although touted as the entry-level Lexus, the CT200h is anything but entry-level. Everything we loved about the brand is faithfully replicated here albeit in a smaller package.
And like the new range of Lexus models, the CT200h is just as dynamic as it is luxurious. The Mini Cooper S isn't far behind in the polls either. Losing by a hair's breadth of just 20 votes, it is still our favourite for that 'go kart handling' but isn't quite as accomplished in its comfort level as the Lexus.
