Finalists of the 2021 autoTRADER.ca awards have been announced and are meant to recognize vehicles for their value, innovation, performance, comfort, technology and desirability.
A jury of more than 20 automotive journalists are responsible for selecting the finalists, and have evaluated and tested more than 350 vehicles before doing so.
“We are thrilled to announce the finalists for the 2021 autoTRADER.ca Awards,” said Jodi Lai, Editor-in-Chief of autoTRADER.ca. “The awards are designed to help Canadians make confident and informed decisions when they look to buy their next vehicle.”
