No doubt, it’s been an interesting year in automotive news. Besides an abundance of important new model presentations such as the VW Golf Mk7, we also witnessed the rebound of North American sales, the rapid decline of Europe’s auto market amidst the euro currency crisis, and even announcements on the re-birth of brands like Datsun, just to mention a few of the things that took place in 2012.
But which stories captured the attention of CarScoop’s readers the most in 2012? Well, to answer that question, we compiled a list with the 10 most read articles of the year, and let’s just say that, while some entrants were to be expected, many caught us by surprise with their presence in the Top 10, especially the ones from previous years. Naturally, the same can be said for those missing from the list…
So, without further ado, here’s CarScoop’s 10 most viewed stories of the year starting with the 10th most read and ending with the most popular of 2012.
