#VOTY2020 – The Long List

September 21, 2020 by Randy Stern

Just like every #VOTY before it, the idea of "vehicle" is not one to put into a row of silos. In our automotive world, we continue to recognize the continued realities of the marketplace, where the SUV is king and queen of the showroom floor. Trucks also played a huge role in this year's #VOTY2020 Long List, as they continue to drive sales volumes in this industry.

Today is the day that we present the Long List for the 2020 Victory & Reseda Vehicle of The Year Award!

This year's Long List continues to be representative of the work V&R is doing to present these vehicles to you. Some of which are considered stalwarts in the marketplace. Other vehicles represent the latest, the greatest, and the freshest ideas for their intended consumer. 

Just like every #VOTY before it, the idea of "vehicle" is not one to put into a row of silos.
