The Annual 'Wheels Car Of The Year' Event
The "Wheels Car of the Year" is an annual event that started in 1963 where the top vehicles in the auto industry compete in terms of function, value, efficiency, technology and safety. According to report, the event was participated by a total of 28 vehicles that have been narrowed down to six contenders. Among those that made it to the top of the list include the Volkswagen Tiguan, Subaru Impreza, Holden Astra, Mercedes-Benz E Class, Audi A4 and the Mazda CX-9, which also happens to be the biggest of them all.
Earning The Coveted Award
The 2017 Mazda CX-9 was able to score high in terms of versatility and affordability. In addition, the 2017 Mazda CX-9 also gained added points thanks to its interior styling and technology features including the automatic braking system.

Mazda's Eighth 'Wheels Car Of The Year' Award
Apparently, this is not the first time that the Japanese automaker has won the "Wheels Car of the Year" award. Reports state that this is the eighth time that Mazda has won the coveted title.
