The
(AJAC) announced today the vehicles its members selected as the best in Canada for 2021 in each of 8 categories spanning segments that include cars, utility vehicles, and pick-up trucks.
With this announcement, 6 vehicle manufacturers move one step closer to winning the ultimate accolades of 2021 Canadian Car of the Year and 2021 Canadian Utility Vehicle of the Year.
Kia and Genesis have both earned a pair of category wins this year with the Kia Telluride marking a repeat win in its category. Mazda, Subaru, Nissan, and Ram each take home best-in-class trophies to add to their cabinets, with the Mazda3 also receiving a second win in a row.
More than 250 vehicles were eligible for evaluation and voting in this year's awards, including all on-sale vehicles: those newly designed, recently refreshed, and carried over from the previous year were all eligible upon receiving a minimum number of ballots submitted by AJAC journalists. Voting data was collected from expert jurors based from Vancouver to Halifax, who tested each vehicle on the same roads and in the same conditions faced by Canadian drivers from coast to coast every day.
"Despite the many challenges presented throughout 2020, AJAC journalists rallied to submit ballots based on real-world test drives and produce this list of winners presented on Zone Auto today in collaboration with the Montreal International Auto Show," said Stephanie Wallcraft, AJAC president. "AJAC counts dozens of Canada's foremost automotive critics among its membership. In producing these results, our journalist members demonstrated fierce dedication to their craft, informing Canadian drivers of the vehicles worthy of their purchase consideration in 2021."
All 8 of these vehicles now qualify to be named 2021 Canadian Car of the Year for 2021 Canadian Utility Vehicle of the Year. These awards will be presented in March; details of that announcement will follow at a later date.

I recently checked out the like qx55 on the Infiniti Vidi website, and I have to say, it's one stunning vehicle! The sleek design and bold front grille caught my attention immediately. I love the sporty coupe-like styling combined with the spacious interior—definitely perfect for someone who wants both style and comfort. The tech features, like the dual touchscreen setup, are top-notch and add a modern touch to the driving experience. If you’re looking for a luxury SUV with personality, this is definitely worth considering.
The CX90 model lineup on Mazda Vidi's site caught my eye immediately. The attention to detail and the premium feel of these SUVs are really impressive. The features they offer are well thought out, and I can see why Mazda is considered a leader in the auto industry.
I had no idea the trade-in process could be this easy until I visited Toyota Airports page here https://toyota-airport.com.ua/ua/finance/trade-in/. Seriously, if you’re thinking about getting a new car and want to trade in your old one, you should totally check this out. They give you a quick estimate on your car’s value and guide you through the whole process. I’m considering trading in my old Corolla for a new Camry, and this makes it look so hassle-free. Anyone already gone through this with them?
