2021 FULL-SIZE PICKUP OF THE YEAR

Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra – Ford F-150 - Ram 1500

This is THE most coveted segment, the one where the most vehicles are sold. Ironically, it's the one with the fewest players. Once again this year, it's between the products of the three major American manufacturers: the Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra duo, the Ram 1500 and the Ford F-150.

2021 GREEN VEHICLE OF THE YEAR (eligible for government rebates)

Ford Mustang Mach-E - Kia Niro EV - Toyota RAV4 Prime

This is a new category that is meant to be temporary, given that within a very short time we’ll be looking at several different segments of electric models as more EVs come to market. Also, the reality is that government incentives won’t last forever.

For 2021, then, we're in for a no-holds-barred battle between the Ford Mustang Mach-E, the Kia Niro EV and the Toyota RAV4 Prime.
