The awards are divided into Best Value in Canada, along with Lowest Cost to Own in Canada. Toyota earned two awards as a brand – the sixth time it has won for Car Brand and SUV & Van Brand – and six for individual Best Value models. Tesla took two brand awards and four Best Value model awards. Ram was named Best Brand Value for trucks for the third time.
The awards named a “landslide number” of electrified vehicles, the company said. Of the 25 Best Value awards, 17 were given to electric vehicles (EVs), plug-in hybrids (PHEVs), or hybrids; while 14 electrified vehicles were named as Lowest Cost to Own.
