线程： 年奖在纽约车展上宣布世界汽车

结果今天亮相由普利司通公司主办的新闻发布会。我高兴地说，获奖者也是我的四个选项。其第一次香港专业教育学院已达成协议，在所有的四个类别，我 66 同胞汽车记者陪审团成员来自世界各地。

虽然有很多的电动汽车主题愤世嫉俗怀疑论者，日产 Leaf 和雪佛兰 Volt 当然是展望未来的汽车。万一你想伏没有资格世界汽车奖由于尚未出售的足够多的国家。讽刺的是，它将有资格明年主要奖。

为记录日产 Leaf 击败了奥迪 A8 和宝马 5 系之间的三个最后入围世界汽车奖 — — 那里没有太大争议。法拉利 458 意大利击败的梅赛德斯-奔驰 SLS AMG 和保时捷 911 Turbo 性能奖 — — 再没有太大的辩论。阿斯顿马丁该网络击败阿尔法-罗密欧 Guillietta 和法拉利 458 意大利汽车设计奖，我怀疑有会惊讶于这一决定一些陪审员。

同样，雪佛兰 Volt 击败宝马 320 d 汽车版和日产 Leaf 和我怀疑很可能有一些人不知道叶为什么不也采取这一奖项。它是雪佛兰的特别好消息如果世界各地的领先汽车记者看到伏作为重要的汽车，即使其中大多数都不驱动它。

The results were unveiled today at a press conference hosted by Bridgestone Corporation. Im pleased to say that the winners were also my four choices. Its the first time Ive been in agreement, in all four categories, with my 66 fellow auto journalist jury members from around the world.

Although there are plenty of cynical naysayers on the subject of electric cars, the Nissan Leaf and Chevrolet Volt are certainly cars that look to the future. In case youre wondering the Volt did not qualify for the World Car award as it is not yet on sale in enough countries. Ironically, it will be eligible next year for the main award.

For the record the Nissan Leaf beat out the Audi A8 and BMW 5-Series among the three finalists for the World Car award – not much controversy there. The Ferrari 458 Italia trounced the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG and Porsche 911 Turbo for the Performance award – again not much debate. The Aston Martin Rapide beat the Alfa Romeo Guillietta and Ferrari 458 Italia for the Car Design award and I suspect there are some jurors who were surprised by that decision.

Likewise, the Chevrolet Volt beat the BMW 320d EfficientDynamics Edition and the Nissan Leaf and I suspect there are probably some who wonder why the Leaf did not also take this award. It is particularly good news for Chevrolet if leading auto journalists around the world see the Volt as a significantly important car, even though most of them have not yet driven it.
