The 2020 Dunlop Trophy Championship was a motor racing championship for production cars held across England. The Trophy championship was created specifically for production vehicles as a Britcar championship separate from the much faster GT and Touring Cars of the Endurance Championship. It is the 19th season of a Britcar championship and the 1st Britcar Trophy Championship season.

2020 was the inaugural season of the Britcar Trophy Championship. The season began on 11 July at Croft Circuit and ended on 1 November at Snetterton Circuit. All rounds took place on the same weekend as the Britcar Endurance Championship rounds. There was also a non-championship round at the Spa-Francorchamps in support of the 2019-20 FIA World Endurance Championship, where the Trophy category competitors participated in two races with the Endurance Category cars.

The championship included Class 5, 6 and 7 cars. The Michelin Clio Cup Series also joined the Britcar Trophy Championship grid for the inaugural season with the Clio cars having a separate class but still eligible to compete for the overall championship title.
