Ford Sweeps Car and Truck of the Year Awards

Dallas Morning News

DETROIT — Ford Motor Co.’s year-long resurgence got another little boost this morning when its vehicles swept the car and truck of the year awards at the North American International Auto Show.

The 2010 Fusion Hybrid beat out the Volkswagen Golf TDI and Buick LaCrosse to win the car class and the odd-looking but highly practical 2010 Transit Connect won the truck award over the Chevrolet Equinox and Subaru Outback.

It was only the third time in 17 years of the Detroit auto show awards that one automaker won both major categories.

A jury of 49 automotive journalists voted on the awards. Earlier, Motor Trend magazine named the Ford Fusion its Car of the Year award, adding to other awards that the automaker has won in the U.S., Europe and Asia over the past year.

North American International Auto Show juror Csabe Csere, a former editor at Car and Driver, said: ”Though not the first hybrid on the market or even the second or third, the Fusion Hybrid is simply the best one ever built.”

Jurors praised the Transit Connect — which with its narrow width and tall roof looks a bit like a European ambulance — for its practicality. The four-cylinder Transit Connect’s generous cargo area can be outfitted with shelves or other tools for use by businesses.
