Playboy magazine`s 2011 Cars of the Year
Baku, February 4 (AZERTAC). Playboy has revealed its list of the hottest models of 2011. But before you reach for your belt buckle, the winners are of the four-wheel variety - named the magazine`s nine favourite cars of the year.
Playboy - famous for its informative and investigative articles - unveiled the list in the magazine`s January edition.
True to form, there were some curvier models, some with pretty faces, plenty of Europeans, and of course, a racy topless German (the analogy gets a little messy when trying to explain the two hybrids…)
Playboy`s 2011 Cars of the Year:
Best Hybrid - Honda CR-Z: “A serious two-seat hatchback sports coupe that has ample room for you, the girlfriend and a weekend`s worth of gear … It`s also great looking and stops women in their tracks.”
Best Convertible - Porsche Boxster Spyder
Best Sports Coupe - Cadillac CTS-V: “When Cadillac can build a car this good, we needn`t worry about General Motors` survival.”
Best Bang for the Buck - Mazda2
Best Sports Sedan - Aston Martin Rapide: “Rapide is the most seductive four-door ever designed.”
Best SUV - Jeep Grand Cherokee
Most likely to succeed - Hyundai Equus: “Hyundai`s Equus was designed to compete against the best Lexus and the Germans have to offer - for about $US20,000 less. And damned if it doesn`t.”
Best Plug-in - Chevrolet Volt
Car of the Year - Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG: “This is a vehicle that wants to be luxuriated in, with a throttle that begs to be pounded.”
