Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang, Ford Edge Receive Top Honors from AutoGuide.com

DEARBORN, Mich., Nov. 16, 2015 – The 2016 AutoGuide.com Reader’s Choice Car of the Year award goes to Ford Shelby® GT350 Mustang – the second year in a row a version of the iconic pony car has received the award. Mike Schlee, AutoGuide.com road test editor, says driving Shelby GT350 is akin to a religious experience. Shelby GT350 Mustang edged out a number of competitors, including Chevrolet Camaro and Cadillac ATS-V.

The all-new Ford Edge also received top honors – winning the 2016 AutoGuide.com Reader’s Choice Utility Vehicle of the Year award. The original crossover utility vehicle from Ford is loaded with more technology and higher levels of craftsmanship, and is even more fun to drive. Technologies introduced on Edge include enhanced active park assist, side parking sensors and front camera with washer. Edge Sport features a 315-horsepower 2.7-liter EcoBoost® engine – making it the highest-performing Edge ever. Edge beat out competitor SUVs including Honda Pilot and Mazda CX-3.
