The mainly female readership nominated Renault in six vehicle categories out of a possible eight in this year's Women on Wheels (WOW) Car of the Year survey.
The WOW survey, now in its fifth year, is a motoring supplement written by women and will be bagged in the July editions of Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, O, The Oprah Magazine and House and Leisure.
Via these publications, readers are invited to cast one vote for their top car in each of eight categories and the readers' category contenders this year are:
Executive Cars: Renault Fluence (from R199Â 900)
SUVs: Renault Koleos (from R314Â 900)
Fun Cars: Renault Megane RS Cup (from R399Â 900)
Budget Buys: Renault Sandero (from R104Â 900)
MPVs & Wagons: Renault Scenic (from R239Â 900)
Convertibles: Renault Megane CC (from R359Â 900)
Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, O, The Oprah Magazine and House and Leisure readers as well as the general public also have the opportunity to cast their votes via the WOW website www.womenonwheels.co.za.
The voters, together with a panel of seven female judges - each a professional in various aspects of cars and motoring - will have their say as to which vehicle takes the ultimate Women on Wheels 2011 Car of the Year crown.
"Renault has performed incredibly well in the six months year-to-date and the fact that we have more nominations than any of our competitors in WOW's 2011 Car of the Year Awards is the cherry on top. It underscores the fact that we have the freshest, most comprehensive line-up available in the market right now," says Fabien Payzan, vice-president of Marketing and Communications at Renault South Africa.
