End Of The Year Awards

View:

These are the exact words given out by Stephen Park, the current president of the Association of the Scottish Motoring Writers. Park uttered such words during the awarding event of the best vehicles that the group was able to work with. He also did add, ?Despite so many fantastic category winners, the XK Coupe emerged as a clear overall champion. Perfectly proportioned from every angle, and designed by Scotsman Ian Callum the XR is also thoroughly accomplished on the road. Furthermore, the imminent addition of a supercharged derivative to complement the normally aspirated 4.2 liter engine, adds further strength to the Jaguar's case.?

On the end of the creator of the Jaguar XK Coupe and other products like Jaguar 3.8 parts, it was Geoff Cousins who received the ?Car Of The Year? award in behalf of the company. He did so by saying, ?I am especially honored to collect this award for what we believe to be a truly deserving winner. The XR made an immediate impact in the UK when it was launched in March this year and already more than 2000 customers in the UK have taken delivery, with Scottish dealers recording a 57% growth in XK sales compared to 2005. Scotland continues to be a significant market for us, with more than 1100 vehicles sold this year while XJ sales have increased by 40% since 2005.? Cousins is the current managing director for the Jaguar's United Kingdom arm.

Another award that the Jaguar XK Coupe took home was the ?Sporting Car of the Year? and this time, it was Ian Callum, the current director for design of the company, who received it. And upon doing so, he chose to say, ?I feel very proud to have led the team that created the award-winning XK and it's even more special to me to collect the prize in Scotland from the Association of Scottish Motoring Writers. The XK is undoubtedly the most advanced car Jaguar has ever produced and marks the beginning of a whole new chapter for the company.? Commenting on the XK Coupe winning the Scottish ?Sporting Car of the Year? category, Stephen Park President of the ASMW continued: ?The Dove Publishing-sponsored Sporting category was undoubtedly one of the most fiercely contested but from the moment I drove Jaguar's new sports GT, I just knew that my fellow ASMW members would agree that this is a seriously special machine.?

End Of The Year Awards

Automobile Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC) members pick Camry LE, Camry Hybrid and RAV4 as category winners for the 2007 Canadian Car of the Year. Toyota Trio were given the top honors. Toyota Camry LE won in the Best New Family Car, Toyota Camry Hybrid, in the Best New Family Car, and Toyota RAV4 V6 Sport in the Best New SUV/CUV category.

"Toyota is very happy to accept these awards and on behalf of everyone at Toyota in Canada, I'd like to thank AJAC's members for these honors," said Stephen Beatty, Managing Director at Toyota Canada Inc. "The Toyota Camry is North America's most popular passenger car. The Toyota Camry Hybrid represents an important evolution of gasoline-electric hybrid technology in the second most popular market segment in Canada. And the redesigned Toyota RAV4 will be manufactured in Woodstock, Ontario when our new assembly plant, currently under construction, begins production in 2008."

Toyota Camry, a midsize car built in Georgetown, Kentucky plant, is the best-selling car in the United States for 8 of the last 9 years starting in 1997. Now in its sixth generation, auto parts for Toyota Camry have been notably redesigned though the length of the car remained unchanged. Kentucky plant produces approximately 45,000 Camrys annually.

Toyota Camry OEM parts boast functionality and style. The new Camry is also being manufactured by Toyota Motor Corporation Australia. The new generation Camry in Australia went on sale last August. Its model range is composed of the Altise, Ateva, Sportivo and Grande.

This year, Toyota created a hybrid version of Camry. It was introduced alongside with the redesigned Camry. The car employs Hybrid Synergy Drive setup, which is identical to that of Prius, Highlander Hybrid and Lexus RX 400h. Camry Hybrid uses a 4-cylinder gasoline engine that is capable of producing 192 horsepower. Standard features of the Camry Hybrid include knee airbags, side torso airbags and side-curtain airbags, remote entry and start.

Toyota RAV4, on the other hand, is a compact crossover SUV which was significantly redesigned for the 2006 model year. For now, Toyota RAV4 auto parts are assembled in the automaker's Tahara, Aichi, Japan assembly plant. However, the assembly is expected to be transferred in Woodstock, Ontario, Canada assembly plant when the latter comes online.

"These three vehicles are extremely important to Toyota's vision of the future of personal transportation in Canada," Mr. Beatty continued. "Therefore, we're pleased that they have been selected by AJAC's members as the best in their respective categories."

AJAC is an association composed of professional journalists, writers and photographers who are responsible for the coverage in Canada's auto industry.
