As is tradition, the first press day of the 2014 Detroit Auto Show has been kicked off with the announcement of the 2014 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year winners. And for the new year, top honors go to go the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and Silverado - a sweep for the Bowtie brand.

In earning its Car of the Year award, the Corvette beat the slick new Cadillac CTS and lovely new Mazda3 compact - both great cars, for sure. But considering just how many awards the new Corvette has won since its debut earlier this year, we aren't exactly shocked that the NACTOY jury found it fitting of this prestigious award.

Competition was also stiff on the Truck/Utility side, where the Chevy Silverado bested the new Jeep Cherokee and Acura MDX.

Congratulations to both of the winners, as well as the finalists. We'll have more information regarding the 2014 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the year later, including voting breakdown.Chevy Corvette Stingray, Silverado named 2014 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year originally appeared on Autoblog on Mon, 13 Jan 2014 07:50:00 EST.
