The Car of the Year gong went to Toyota"s innovative new Prius petrol/electric vehicle, the first hybrid car to win. Auto Express col-umnist Steven Cole Smith sits on the judging panel, and told us: "The Prius is an excellent vehicle, but I didn"t award it maximum points because I wouldn"t want to drive it every day.
