It's part of Motor Trend's identity. IMHO, MT used to be the car magazine for people who didn't really like cars but thought they should. Now it's much better, but all the mainstream car mags are a far cry from the '70s and '80s when they were real enthusiast books and also usually well-written and thoughtfully edited. Nowadays none of them are very good.
As for COTY, who cares? It's meaningless, especially when awarded to a car that relatively few people will even see, let alone actually drive or own. OTOH, I agree that a car like the Tesla should be recognized. Like it or not, EVs are going to become more common and in a dozen years will be fairly mainstream.
