I read your awards list early morning on 1st of January. Made me smile, nice way to start 2021.
Perhaps in the coming years, you can also introduce a 2020 award; someone or company who started with a lot of promise, but quickly turned into a turd. Sort of the Dwayne Haskins Medal, but on steroids.

The white colouring pencil award for most pointless car of the year
VW T-Roc convertible. Didn’t work for Range Rover, not sure who decided to sign off on this

Somehow I missed that one. Really poor on Lotus part. I have zero confidence the Evija will be worth its price.

Probably done to divert attention away from the Diesel scandal. Give people another folly to look at.

I think all three categories have merit.
