Absolutely stoked for Maserati. The MC20 feels like a small miracle, to think that Maserati even at its most recent peak with the MC12, Quattroporte V and GranTurismo/Cabrio was forced to play second fiddle to Ferrari, then had to endure the slump of the 2010s Fiat management not developing the sporting side of the brand as it probably should have... and then out of nowhere, when their only sportscar was the recently retired GranTurismo/Cabrio that was a 12 years old design (!), they come out with this masterpiece, and snatch the Ecoty crown, just like that. Just absolutely unbelievable. Well done Maserati !

I can’t describe how happy I am this kind of car journalism exists. Fantastic in every aspect, thank you

Have to admit: My heart jumped for joy when Jethro walked past the 296 and Artura to reveal the GR86 as the second best car. Just shows that EVO truly values the simple, unfiltered fun a true sports car can provide even if it seems to be completely outclassed in this company when you exclusively look at the raw numbers. Most other car media would've put the GR86 out of contention even before starting the test or treating it as an honorable mention at best.

How is it possible to get a tear in your eye of a car test? I would never expect Maserati to be back on top. The emotions.. Great test!

I'm amazed that I am able to own one of GR86. I mean it is crazy to be in this line-up. Yet with entry level price, it like the best pound to pound boxer in the world. It is certainly punching well above its weight.

As per usual, one of my favourite videos every year is a beautiful little documentary with all the familiar faces. Thanks for the brilliant work over all these years.

GR86 should have taken it just for the third pedal.

As a driver of a 996.2 GT3, I would love to see a comparison in terms of joy of driving. I my opinion, these older cars are giving you so much more pleasure. Manual shifting, glorious sound, crisp steering and not so crazy fast as todays supercars. I love every drive and when climbing the Swiss mountain roads you can feel the lower weight and how much smaller cars have been 20 years ago.

Love the Ecoty test. Staying true to the values that made the test special. The known winner the Porsche RS being judged fairly on it's merits and not it's hype.

This is the best Evo video I’ve ever seen. I think Jethro leading is a big part of it as his experience on American Top Gear and many other KZread videos is showing through. Bit of comedy rather than taking it all too seriously, but mixed with informative content. Editing is better than older Evo vids too. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

The fact that a Toyota product is in this video means great deals for the GR brand.

I was hoping the Maserati would win. It's just so...good. It's incredibly beautiful, sounds fantastic and is as visceral as can be in these days. Amazing!

With the increasing price of enthusiast cars I find myself most impressed with the relatively affordable GR86. For a fraction of the price of its competition it delivers an enjoyable, connected driving experience especially with the MT. While I wouldn't pass on the opportunity to drive the other eCOTY contenders, the sensible part of me would always gravitate back to the GR86.

25:05 This was my favorite part. Thank you evo for remembering to include WEIGHT!!!!

GR 86 is a great, lightweight, drivers car....and it has a sweet manual box :) Congrats to the senior Toyota management in getting this car built. It seems they let Gazoo Racing work its magic and have produced a mighty fine sports car with a nice interior and Toyota reliability.

The maserati did fenomenal job on the design. The changes and improvements they do is another level of pure automotive love, i admire every detail they do, deserve more attention imo

There's only one car in this test that I (and most normal people) can afford. It's a sad state of affairs when, on the brink of a financial crisis, the best cars for drivers are almost all above £100k. It's all well and good judging £100k+ supercars on closed, empty roads, but in the real world, there's only one car in that lineup that can be enjoyed every day, and its the one cheap enough to be driven every day. The real winner of this test, and I might be a little biased, is the GR86. I took delivery of mine a week ago today, and it's everything I want from a sports car. I've had 500+hp cars in the past, and they're utterly useless on the majority of UK roads. The GR86 is a car that puts its best foot forward at legal speeds, and that's the essence of driving. Even second place is admirable in this field, but the best version of this test is the one with a different outcome. Wonderfully filmed and directed as usual, just a shame about the result.

You gentlemen don't just live our dreams; you create and narrate them beautifully with such vivid passion. Thank you.

The back and forth narration is really great. This is a more engaging video than previous editions of Evo COTY.

God that Maserati is stunning. The mouth/grille design is a palette cleanser to the M4 and imo 296. Going to buy a BRZ now! Excellent video and the work is evident.

This film takes me back to proper EVO magazine days. Thanks lads.

Outstanding production gents. Nice to see Evo back making videos as well.

Great car journalists, breathtaking scenery, astonishing roads and the very of the modern car world. Amazing how in 2022 we still got some true old car principles on four wheels. Each year I cannot wait for the Evo car of the year magazine and video! Please, keep it going!

This has got to be one of the most spectacular car showdowns I've seen. Done tastefully by really objective car journalists. A+

A couple of years in a row that ECOTY has been unreal. There were a few years where it was unfortunately sparse but the auto industry is better when EVO is great. Hope there will be many more.

I put allot of value in the freedom of mind the GR86 gives considering it does not break the bank at all and gives such pure and authentic driving thrills. I’m sincerely thrilled it came second and was the Little Mac of the competition. Great reviews.

Excellent as always and I would never thought MC20 would be the COTY 2022, cool surprise 👌

You’re absolutely on the money about the GR86 Steve . After owning an Fk8 CTR since 2017 I had quite naturally put a deposit on a new FL5 and added my name to the waiting list . After a few months of waiting I happened upon a GR86 in the same dealership, ( multi franchise dealer Honda, Toyota, Ford etc) and quietly took a test drive. That was it , 20 minutes later I had cancelled the order for the Type R and was happily nipping along towards home in my new GR86 and haven’t looked back , I absolutely love it. I also saved myself $25,000 in the process. And you are spot on about the lack of weight. The FK8 was a light car in modern hot hatch terms , but the 86 is on another planet by comparison. Thanks for the video I have lost count the number of times I have watched it.

Thanks to the whole team of Evo for a very enjoyable half hour in 2023. Cannot wait for next year 😅

In conjunction with the magazine (GO and buy it guys!) fantastic to see the best of the year given an exhaustive and back to back test. Over the years the Porsche GT cars have lots of wins but not surprised the GT4RS falls short. Seems to have missed the sweet spot of all the great GT cars , that is all that perfect control weights, awesome damping, sensational throttle response whilst still being a usable road car. And its so loud, great sound but if you need earplugs to do a trip its too compromised.
