Edmunds.com to Announce Most Significant Vehicle for 2006 at SEMA Show on Wednesday, November 2, 2005
WHAT: Edmunds.com, the premier online automotive resource, will
announce the winners of the 2006 Editors' Most Wanted Awards,
including the Most Significant Vehicle Award for 2006,
in a press conference at the 2005 Specialty Equipment Market
Association (SEMA) Show.
For eight consecutive years, the Editors' Most Wanted Vehicle
awards have recognized the new model year's cars and trucks the
auto-loving Edmunds.com editors would choose to buy with their
own money.
One of the Editors' Most Wanted categories is the Most
Significant Vehicle Award, which is given to a new vehicle that
significantly changes the rules of a given vehicle segment,
creates a new niche or redefines an automaker's image. This
year's winner accomplishes two of these three in convincing
style.
In addition, Edmunds.com will present an update on the rapid
growth of Inside Line, Edmunds.com's free online magazine for
auto enthusiasts. Inside Line was launched in January 2005 at
the Detroit North American International Auto Show and now hosts
nearly three million visitors each month.
WHY: Edmunds.com and Inside Line are among the most trusted and quoted
automotive industry sources, with a commitment to providing
comprehensive information to consumers and enthusiasts alike.
The awards recognize automakers' most recent achievements in 26
vehicle categories and pinpoint the best of the best across the
vast array of new 2006 models, helping buyers find the right
vehicle for their lifestyle, their budget and their taste.
