In a recent article about Audi’s winnings in these awards, we reported that the fifth annual Motorist Choice Awards had added more criteria in making its determinations for this year’s winners. Fifteen new points were incorporated this year by the research firms, InelliChoice and AutoPacific, the administrators of the proceedings, to determine the 30 award-winning automobiles.

Overall, there were 30 winners in 15 categories — with both premium and popular class winners — for each category. Here is the entire list of winning vehicles.
