Car and Driver 10Best is a list annually produced by Car and Driver (C/D) beginning in 1983,[1] nominating what it considers the 10 best cars of the year. C/D also produced the 5Best list, highlighting what it considers the five best trucks of the year.

All production vehicles for sale in that calendar year are considered with these recent restrictions:

  1. The vehicle must be on sale by January
  2. It must be priced below 2.5 times the average price of a car that year
  3. The manufacturer must provide an example for testing
  4. Only substantially changed or new vehicles and the past year's 10 best winners are nominated

The magazine sometimes selects a specific trim and other times a whole family of vehicles.
