#VOTY2025: The Nominees Are…

Today is the day that we present the nominees for the 2025 Victory & Reseda Vehicle of The Year Award – #VOTY2025!

This year's list of nominees continues to be representative of the work V&R continues to do towards presenting these vehicles to you. They represent the latest, the greatest, and the freshest ideas for their intended consumer.
