Sure, it\u2019s great to have a nice shiny car \u2013 new or used.<\/p>\n

Some may imagine making heads turn admiringly as they drive down an expressway or on a city street. We all know that the outward appearance of our cars are a public expression of ourselves.<\/p>\n

But how many people travel on the outside of their vehicles? That\u2019s right, the outside. The part on which most of us focus while shopping for our next car, truck or SUV.<\/p>\n

The obvious answer is that nobody does. We sit on the inside, enclosed and, we hope, safe and secure.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s what makes WardsAuto<\/em>\u2019s list of the 10 best auto interiors so interesting. It honors \u201ca broad swath of cars and utility vehicles available in the U.S. with advanced human-machine interfaces, high-quality materials, outstanding comfort and, in some cases, breathtaking aesthetics \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Eight\u00a0WardsAuto<\/em>\u00a0editors spent two months evaluating 41 vehicles during their routine commutes in and around metro Detroit and submitted scores ranking the entries on features such as ergonomics, driver information, fit-and-finish, materials, value, safety, comfort and design harmony. To qualify for the list, a vehicle must offer a \u201cnew or significantly redesigned\u201d interior.<\/p>\n

The list of 10 ranges from the Kia Soul+ with a sticker of $24,010, lowest among the 10 vehicles, to the Rolls-Royce Wraith at $372,800, the most expensive vehicle. Eight of this year\u2019s winners are 2014 models, but two \u2013 the Chrysler 200C and Volkswagen GTI \u2013 are 2015 models. And four of the 10 vehicles are from American automakers \u2013 Chevrolet, Chrysler, GMC and Jeep.<\/p>\n

The winners in alphabetical order with sticker prices as tested are:<\/p>\n
