MotorTrend Also Announces 2023 Software-Defined Vehicle Innovator Award Finalists, Includes Ford, Hyundai, Stellantis
LOS ANGELES, CA – November 17, 2022 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – Today at the Los Angeles Auto Show, MotorTrend announced the Genesis G90 as the winner of its Golden Calipers for Car of the Year.
