For the fourth year, Autobytel's has chosen the best of the best and the most interesting options for car shoppers in 2015. I am Autobytel’s Editor-in-Chief, Michelle Naranjo, and these are our picks for the 2015 Autobytel Car of the Year, Autobytel Truck of the Year and individual segment winners.
The overall winners this year signal a shift in the trend towards more choices than ever for car buyers. Leaning a lot more green and fun than in previous years, the 2015 Autobytel Car of the Year is the Volkswagen Golf in all of its iterations. Making its way back to the Autobytel Truck of the Year podium for 2015, the 2015 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel brings great mileage, incredible performance, and excellent interior features to a small but very competitive segment.
Here’s more about this year’s overall winners of the 2015 Autobytel Car and Truck of the Year and the winners in each sub-category.
2015 Autobytel Car of the Year-2015 Volkswagen Golf
One of the most versatile, practical and affordable options on dealer lots today is the 2015 Volkswagen Golf. Fun to drive, lighter and larger, the GSI has a much improved base engine, the e-Golf is a torque-y blast to drive, the TDI brings great diesel MPGs, the GTI is a hot hatch, and for the diehard VW fans out there, there’s the Golf R. We’ll get more on the versatile VW in a couple of other segments that it won this year in addition to it being the overall Autobytel Car of the Year.
2015 Autobytel Truck of the Year-2015 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel
The 2015 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel was the clear winner for 2015 Autobytel Truck of the Year honors, as it swept voting by a handy margin. Spend some time behind the wheel of the 2015 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel and it's easy to understand why this truck had us in its thrall: with 240 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque on hand from a 3.0-liter turbodiesel V-6, the pickup offers up to 9,200 lbs of towing capacity, and yet on the highway it returns a phenomenal 28-mpg. Combine that with the availability of one of the best interiors in its class, plus striking styling and hulking road presence, and you got the formula for the 2015 Autobytel Truck of the Year.
