Six of the nine vehicles shortlisted for the North American Car, Truck and Utility Vehicle of the Year Awards this year use some form of electric propulsion, and five are purely electric.
All of the finalists for the SUV award are electric vehicles (EVs).
The North American Car, Truck and SUV of the Year Awards are given in January. But the jury that grants the awards just winnowed the field down to a handful of finalists.
They’re narrower in price range this year than usual. The least expensive starts at around $28,000, with the most expensive at about $67,000.
And they hail from three continents. But pickup trucks are the only North American vehicles — save the Honda Accord, built in Ohio — to make the finals of the North American vehicle awards.
A jury of 50 automotive journalists votes on the awards, including our own Allyson Harwood.
