Motor Trend Car of the Year BESTS
Tags: Autos, Bests, Motor Trend magazine, Car of the Year
Motor Trend magazine gives an annual Car of the Year award. To be eligible for the award, a car must be a new model introduced in a given model year, or given a fundamental redesign for that year. All vehicles are given the same battery of tests: standard car tests such as skid-pad ratings, acceleration and quarter-mile times, and evaluations of the interiors are combined with a track run conducted by SCCA-licensed testers and taking the cars out on normal roads to test their drivability under normal conditions and fuel economy. The trophy for the winner, a depiction of calipers, is well-known to Americans, and is often used in the winner's advertising post-victory.
