The 10 Best Car Interiors of 2022 According to WardsAuto

Published on May 12, 2022 in Top 10 by Guillaume Rivard

The fast-increasing popularity of electric vehicles is reflected in WardsAuto’s latest ranking of the best car interiors on the market as five of them made the top 10.

Only brand new or significantly improved models were considered. Several criteria helped determine the winners including design aesthetic, comfort, ergonomics, materials, fit-and-finish and the user-friendliness of displays and controls. Also, there is no price limit, but value is still important.

For the most part, we at The Car Guide agree with the picks, although we’re kind of surprised by the absence of the Hyundai IONIQ 5. Check out the list (in alphabetical order) and tell us what you think!

2022 BMW iX

The Car Guide’s Take: The all-digital 12.3-inch instrument panel and 14.9-inch touchscreen make an awesome interface powered by the eighth generation of iDrive.

2022 Ford Maverick

The Car Guide’s Take: Lots of cool innovations and handy storage solutions with the possibility to add your own 3D-printed accessories.

2022 Genesis GV70

The Car Guide’s Take: A super-classy interior with lovely two-tone combinations and advanced cabin tech.

2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer

The Car Guide’s Take: This full-size SUV offers up to 75 inches of displays, and the new Uconnect 5 system makes them great to use, too.

2022 Kia EV6

The Car Guide’s Take: We love the clean design and use of recycled materials, like the seat covers which are partly made from salvaged plastic bottles.

2022 Lucid Air

The Car Guide’s Take: The giant glass roof that blends into the windshield is incredible, but so is the digital control panel that disappears out of sight when not in use.

2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS 580

The Car Guide’s Take: The 56-inch MBUX Hyperscreen combines with spectacular ambient lightning for a sci-fi experience.

2022 Rivian R1T

The Car Guide’s Take: A versatile and exceptionally well-finished cabin puts nifty storage solutions and a 16-inch touchscreen at the driver’s disposal.

2022 Toyota Tundra

The Car Guide’s Take: The new Toyota Multimedia System is a real improvement, but don’t miss the lavish Capstone model.

2022 Volkswagen Golf GTI

The Car Guide’s Take: The plaid seats are back, naturally, and the all-digital interface is extremely sharp.
