2021 GREEN VEHICLE OF THE YEAR (not eligible for government rebates)

Access to electric vehicles isn't yet for everyone, as many proposals are priced at levels that don't qualify them for subsidies. That doesn't stop the market from being flooded with some really interesting models, so choosing the finalists wasn't easy, let alone choosing the winner. Nevertheless, it's going to come down to the Porsche Taycan, the Jaguar I-Pace, and the Volvo XC40 Recharge.

2021 MINIVAN OF THE YEAR

Chrysler Pacifica - Honda Odyssey - Toyota Sienna

The minivan segment has been melting away for a few years now, but it's essentially the same players that have been around for a while now. While sales are lower than they used to be in this category, buyers are still looking for quality, and that quality is more present than ever. So, our team will have to choose between the Honda Odyssey, the Chrysler Pacifica and the Toyota Sienna.
