Hundreds if not more awards are handed out across the automotive industry each year, but there are three that stand out above all the rest. The North American International Auto Show is the biggest auto show of the year here in the U.S., and at that show, a jury of journalists, analysts, et cetera come together to decide on the North American Car, Truck and Utility Vehicle of the Year. This year, a very special vehicle won the honor of being called the 2019 North American Car of the Year… the 2019 Genesis G70!

“For a still-young brand, winning this highly prestigious award, as well as the other significant awards the G70 has collected, will certainly give Genesis a presence boost in the marketplace. We’re thrilled to give more people the opportunity to get behind the wheel and experience the compelling qualities and capabilities the expert NACTOY jurors voted for.”
– Erwin Raphael, Executive Director, Genesis Motor America
How is the winner selected?
As we said, a jury of journalists and analysts is formed – in this year’s case, 54 jurors from different outlets throughout the country and in Canada – come together to decide the winner. They decide this based on achievements in innovation, design, safety, handling, driver satisfaction and value for the dollar. The G70 was lauded for its “holistic integration of performance, body strength, refined luxury and aerodynamic design.” Plus, it’s got a pretty affordable price tag for an entry-level luxury sedan segment.
