19 September 2024 – The Women’s Worldwide Car of the Year (WWCOTY) initiative has further strengthened its influence with the appointment of Carlotta Adreani, a respected journalist from TG5 TV News, to its distinguished jury panel. This marks an exciting new chapter for the award, which now includes 78 expert jurors from 54 countries—cementing its position as a truly global voice in the automotive industry.
WWCOTY is the only car award in the world judged exclusively by women motoring journalists. Since its founding, it has served as a platform for diverse perspectives in automotive evaluation, aiming to bring attention to vehicles that excel in design, innovation, safety, and environmental impact. With Adreani’s inclusion, the panel grows in both geographic representation and expertise, underscoring the award’s commitment to amplifying the voices of women within the motoring world.
Adreani is a well-known figure in Italy, renowned for her work in TG5 (TeleGiornale 5), the country’s most prominent television news program. While her background covers a broad spectrum of economics and current affairs, she has developed a particular focus on the automotive industry. Over the years, she has become a trusted source of news about car shows, cutting-edge technologies, and market trends. Her passion for motoring dates back to childhood, a sentiment she recalls fondly. “My passion for cars dates back to my childhood, and among my toys was a Ferrari F40, which I still have,” she shared.
A significant moment in Adreani’s career came when she was asked to create a motoring column within TG5. This opportunity solidified her path as a voice for the world of motors and marked the start of a journey filled with both challenges and triumphs. “I love this sector, and I think that being lucky enough to do the job I love is truly a gift,” she reflected. Her expertise and enthusiasm for the industry make her a natural fit for WWCOTY, where she will lend her keen eye for detail and deep knowledge of automotive innovation to the jury’s decisions.
Adreani’s appointment comes at a time when the automotive landscape is rapidly evolving, with increasing attention on electric vehicles, sustainability, and cutting-edge technologies. Her unique perspective, informed by both her journalistic rigor and personal passion for cars, promises to bring fresh insights to WWCOTY’s evaluations. Her inclusion reinforces the award’s growing reputation as a benchmark of excellence, celebrating the best cars from a global perspective, through the eyes of women who live and breathe the motoring world.
As WWCOTY continues to expand, adding voices like Adreani’s, the initiative not only champions exceptional vehicles but also highlights the increasing diversity of thought shaping the future of the automotive industry.
