On the eve of the Detroit Auto Show, Road and Travel Magazine hosted the annual International Car of the Year Awards ceremony, and without further ado, we'll tell you that Lexus and GM were the big winners. The automagically self-parking Lexus LS 460 sedan garnered top honors on the car side, while GM scored the trophy for International Truck of the year with its new Silverado Crew Cab pickup.
Other ICOTY category honorees included:
- Sports Car: Jaguar XK
- Sedan: Toyota Camry
- Luxury Car: Lexus LS 460
- Minivan: Hyundai Entourage
- Entry Level: Mazdaspeed3
- Crossover: Mazda CX-7
Our friends from AOL Autos were in attendance and covered the shindig at their
Gear Shift blog. Head over there for more on the event.
