Massaging seats, bold new applications of ambient lighting, a key that can’t be locked in the trunk and a headliner that mimics a starry sky are among the technologies showcased in the 2014 Ward’s 10 Best Interiors winners.

The honorees represent a 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 and limited self-driving capabilities.

To be eligible for Ward’s 10 Best Interiors, a vehicle must offer a new or significantly redesigned interior. Unlike with Ward’s 10 Best Engines, there is no price cap.

This year’s winners in alphabetical order with as-tested sticker prices:

  • ’14 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray ($71,960)
  • ’15 Chrysler 200C ($31,470)
  • ’14 GMC Sierra Denali ($56,685)
  • ’14 Hyundai Equus Ultimate ($68,920)
  • ’14 Jeep Cherokee Limited ($37,525)
  • ’14 Kia Soul+ ($24,010)
  • ’14 Mazda3 ($30,415)
  • ’14 Mercedes-Benz S550 ($122,895)
  • ’14 Rolls-Royce Wraith ($372,800)
  • ’15 Volkswagen GTI (Est. $30,695)

Winning automakers will be honored May 21 at a ceremony during the WardsAuto Interiors Conference being held at The Henry Hotel in Dearborn, MI.
