AJAC Unveils Vehicles of the Year at Toronto Auto Show

The Automobile Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC) unveiled its list of Vehicles of the Year at the Toronto Auto Show Media Day on Thursday, February 15. 

A total of four models were honoured: one car and one SUV still powered by an internal combustion engine, as well as one all-electric car and one SUV. 

As for Car of the Year, the Toyota Prius was declared the overall winner by the organization's journalist members. Toyota's hybrid sedan was completely redesigned for 2023 and has been impressive ever since. Offered in hybrid or plug-in hybrid (Prime) configurations with a 72 km range, it is an excellent choice for consumers. 

Toyota also had one of its SUVs named Utility of the Year, the Grand Highlander. Launching in May 2023, this extended version of the Highlander offers more for families, with a more spacious third row and more generous cargo volume. 

In the world of electric products, it was Genesis that went out with a bang. First, its G80 sedan took the title of Electric Car of the Year, before the electrified version of its GV70 SUV won the same award in the other category.
