“We have a great variety of vehicles on the list, from the sporty to the family sedan,” said Jeff Gilbert, NACTOY president and the automotive reporter for WWJ Newsradio 950. “This list is an example of the great products that the auto industry is producing, from cutting-edge electric vehicles to traditional gasoline powered cars and trucks, but also hybrids, which are a growing share of the market.”

NACTOY criteria includes areas such as innovation, design, safety, performance, technology, user experience, driver satisfaction and value. Vehicles are evaluated by a jury of 50 automotive journalists across the U.S. and Canada.
