North American Car and Truck of the Year Awards Kick Off Detroit’s Auto Show
53 automotive journalists voted to select the North American Car and Truck of the Year. What vehicles won?
The North American International Auto Show officially opened Monday morning for media preview days. The traditional start of the show comes with the North American Car and Truck of the Year Awards.
This year’s Car of the Year is the Honda Civic. The Truck/Utility of the Year is the Volvo XC 90.
Some 53 journalists sorted through the best new cars, trucks and sport utility vehicles to select three finalists in each category last fall. Final voting to determine the winners came in December.
Long-time automotive journalist Tony Swan made the announcement about 7 a.m. WDET’s Jerome Vaughn spoke with him shortly afterwards about the awards — and his love of cars. Click on the link above to hear that conversation.
