What is the Hottest Car Award?
The title of the “Hottest” at SEMA means that a manufacture’s vehicle is one of the most popular platforms for aftermarket modifications. The Ford win this year with the Ford Mustang, Ford Focus, and Ford F-series is the first time any manufacturer has won three of these awards.
“Winning SEMA’s hottest vehicle awards for Mustang, Focus and F-Series is a great affirmation of the popularity of Ford vehicles with this trendsetting part of the market,” said Dave Pericak, director of Ford Performance, in a recent Ford press release. “We’re proud the aftermarket has embraced these three vehicles with as much enthusiasm as our customers invest to personalize their Mustang, Focus and F-Series.”
