The NACTOY jury is made up of 50 automotive journalists from the United States and Canada. Each year, they start with a new or substantially updated vehicle listing. They reduced this long list to a group of semi-finalists and finally three models in each category up for the award.
In 2022, the Honda Civic won North American Car of the Year. The Ford Maverick is the North American Truck of the Year, and the Bronco scored the North American Utility of the Year award.
