The 12 Choices of AJAC

If you refer back to the previous issue of this publication, you will find an article explaining how members of AJAC (Automobile Journalists Association of Canada) evaluate new cars and trucks competing for the title of Car or Utility Vehicle of the Year.

Following this initial assessment, the selected jury members voted for the most significant vehicles in their respective categories: Best New Car, Best New Electric Car, Best New Utility Vehicle, or Best New Electric Utility Vehicle, based on the entries submitted by manufacturers for this annual competition.

For this second stage, AJAC chose the Montreal Auto Show not only to unveil the twelve finalists (three per category) but also to showcase them to the public! The winners will be announced at the Toronto Auto Show in February.
