General Motors Co.’s Chevrolet brand swept the North American Car and Truck of the Year awards at the Detroit auto show today with its Corvette Stingray sports car and Silverado pickup.
The win, which marks the first time Detroit-based GM has taken both awards since 2007, underscores the automaker’s product resurgence following its 2009 U.S. government-backed bankruptcy reorganization. Ford Motor Co. in 2010 was the last to sweep the awards with the Transit Connect van and the hybrid version of its Fusion sedan.
