The Best Vehicles of 2016
January 21, 2016
The 2016 Volvo XC90 and 2016 Nissan Titan XD were recently named top winners in the annual Best of Awards from Cars.com.
Each year, Cars.com editors drive and evaluate dozens of all-new or fully redesigned vehicles to determine which ranks top in quality, innovation and value.
The 2016 Volvo XC90 received the awards' highest honor, Best of 2016, while the 2016 Nissan Titan XD was named Best Pickup Truck of 2016. Other winners included the 2016 Toyota Prius c for Eco-Friendly Car of the Year and the 2016 BMW M235i for Play Car of the Year. All the winners are listed below.
If you're considering adding any of these award-winning vehicles to your garage, I recommend using TrueCar No Haggle and CarsDirect for the lowest prices in your local area.
