2021 is; It was a difficult year for the automotive industry: the shortage of components, especially semiconductors, affected the timing of development, production and sale. However, we've seen a number of new car models come to market, many of them electric or hybrid, and many of them have achieved five-star ratings despite demanding requirements. Congratulations to the winners so like the runners-up, some of whom were very close contenders for first place in their respective categories.
