Chevy didn’t score the award for car of the year but did earn itself the distinction of becoming the first brand ever with three cars in the final 10.

The Malibu was one of the three finalists for the award, but lost out to the Honda Civic. The Camaro and Volt also made the so-called short list in the car category.

The North American Car and Truck of the awards have been handed out since 1993.
