Green Car Journal has honoured automakers through their Green Car Awards program for the last 14 years. For 2019, the magazine has expanded its Awards to recognizes the best-of-the-best in two increasingly important categories. New this year are the addition of the Luxury Green Car of the Year and Green SUV of the Year.
These prestigious recognitions are handed over to carmakers whose products raises the bar in environmental performance no matter the powertrain. Efficient internal combustion, hybrid and pure electric vehicles have all made the cut for 2019.
