北美年度風雲車
北美年度風雲車（North American Car and Truck of the Year Awards；NACTOY）依據當年度新型汽車裏，經由美國與加拿大當地的汽車專業記者來投票所選定的最優秀汽車，並受予獎項。
設立
早期，在「底特律車展」（North American International Auto Show；NAIAS）會場裏，雖然有類似的票選最優秀汽車的活動，但僅能算是雛型也未受予獎項。
1995年，正式經由美國與加拿大當地的汽車專業記者組成評審團體，集體在「底特律車展」會場裏，票選「年度風雲轎車」與「年度風雲貨卡車」兩個獎項。自此，遂成為「底特律車展」的特色之一。

批評
參照歷年風雲貨卡車得獎的汽車品牌來觀察，不難看出貨車多以美系汽車佔絕大多數，歐系汽車、日系汽車，皆顯少得此獎項。近年來，歐系汽車與日系汽車，逐漸也開始往此領域持續發展當中，期望能扭轉此一情勢[1]。
獎項
大致上，可區分為「轎車」（Car）和「貨卡車」（Truck）兩個獎項。但是，參照歷年所得獎的汽車類型來思考，不難發現出來，仍有汽車類型上的區別。所以，實際上「轎車」仍隱含有「跑車」（Sports）的類型；「貨卡車」也含有「休旅車」（SUV）的類型。
