How does a model earn the “Truck of the Year” award from MotorTrend?
MotorTrend works hard to recognize the best vehicles on the market in each category with their “Of the Year” awards. Each of the vehicles chosen as they represent exceptional value and a positive impact on the automotive industry as well as superiority in their class. A professional automotive test center houses three separate courses where each vehicle competing for an “Of the Year” award is evaluated. When the testing is over, the judges from MotorTrend picks out the finalists. Instead of pitting those finalists against each other, they are further evaluated based on six categories. They are safety, design advancement, efficiency, intended function, value, and engineering excellence.
