2018 NACTOY finalists
It seems that the jurors who get to vote for the North American Car of the Year, Truck of the Year and Utility Vehicle of the Year awards aren’t currently enamoured with American brands.
Indeed, the finalist lists for two of the 2018 prizes contain only Asian and European marques.

The Alfa Romeo Giulia and BMW 5 Series were among the notable semi-finalist casualties. Of the three remaining models, the Stinger represents the greatest departure for its manufacturer – an attribute deserving of recognition.
2018 North American Truck of the Year
As there were only ever three nominees and three semi-finalists, the trio of finalists was entirely predictable. Uniquely, this category is an all-American affair.
2018 North American Utility Vehicle of the Year
Having fifteen semi-finalists must have made achieving an electoral consensus almost impossible. Nevertheless these are the three vehicles that are progressing to the next stage, while arguably more worthy candidates such as the Audi Q5 / S5, BMW X3 and Land Rover Discovery are no longer in the competition.
All three winners are due to be named at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit next January.
