This has been quite the successful year for Six Speed Blog. We have tested nearly 50 cars ranging from the typical small sedan to your most luxurious land yachts, with a few thrills in between. We feel, this now qualifies us to look upon the past and determine which car ultimately deserves to be called car of the year.

Because we had so much diversity, it’s only fair if we split them up:

Compact Car of the Year:

Hyundai Elantra GT

Midsize Car of the Year:

Subaru Legacy 3.6R Limited

Small Crossover of the Year:

Hyundai Tucson Limited

SUV of the Year:

Toyota 4Runner Limited
