The Canada Green Car of the Year is organized by the Canadian Automobile Journalists Association. It is selected through evaluation and voting by a panel of local Canadian automotive experts and journalists, considering eco-friendly values such as charging time, driving range, and driving performance for eco-friendly vehicles sold in the Canadian market.


Earlier this month, the Canadian Automobile Journalists Association announced the final three nominees in the passenger and utility green vehicle categories. The Ioniq 6 was chosen over the BMW i4 and Toyota Prius, while the Ioniq 5 was selected over the Kia EV6 and Ford F-150 Lightning.
