In order to keep up with the increased demand of crossovers and SUVs, the prestigious North American Car and Truck of the Year (NACTOY) awards have evolved for the 2017 edition with the addition of ‘Utility Vehicle of the Year‘.
Selecting the big winners is not an easy task for the approximately 60 automotive journalists from the United States and Canada, but after the first rounds of voting, they managed to reduce the long list to just three for each category, which have been announced at the Automobility LA, the conference that precedes the 2016 LA Auto Show.
The 2017 winners will be announced on January 9, during the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit.
Car of the Year Finalists:
Chevrolet Bolt
Genesis G90
Volvo S90
Truck of the Year Finalists:
Ford F-Series Super Duty
Honda Ridgeline
Nissan Titan
Utility Vehicle of the Year Finalists:
Chrysler Pacifica
Jaguar F-Pace
Mazda CX-9
Knowing that the 2016 North American Car of the Year award was handed over to the Honda Civic, while the Volvo XC90 was designated the 2016 Truck of the Year, how would you place your bets for the 2017 edition?
