Following an initial vote by 48 jury members, the shortlists for the 2014 North American Car of the Year and 2014 North American Truck / Utility of the Year awards have been published.
From an original selection of 28 eligible models, twelve cars make it through to the next stage:
The jurors are now going to be polled once again to decide the three finalists. We’ll have to wait until the 10th of December to hear the result of that second ballot, but it should be a close-run thing given the diversity of the shortlisted twelve. Nevertheless, the BMW 4 Series, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Chevrolet Impala and maybe even the Jaguar F-Type should all have strong chances.
Similarly, twelve trucks / utilities go forward to the next round, picked from the 18 vehicles that were new enough to qualify for consideration:
Again, the wide range of products in this category means attempting to predict the three finalists is a tough task. The Jeep Cherokee, Land Rover Range Rover Sport and Nissan Rogue could all do well, though.
