    Diversity Volume Leadership Awards

    Celebrating automakers who promote diversity

    Presented by S&P Global and the National Association of Minority Automobile Dealers (NAMAD), the Diversity Volume Leadership Awards is the first program of its kind to pay tribute to automotive brands and models with the highest new vehicle registrations for ethnic (African-American, Asian and Hispanic), female, ethnic millennials and LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) consumers. The awards show also highlights the top Motorcycle models for ethnic consumers in two categories including Crusiers and Sport Bikes. New for the 2018 model year awards, we have also added the luxury growth leader category to complement the overall growth leader category for each consumer group. All awards are based on S&P Global registration data for +13 million US vehicles.

    Winners were determined based on 2018 model year US personal new vehicle registration volumes tracked by S&P Global from October 2017 through September 2018. The analysis leading to this year's awards factored in +13 million personal new vehicle registrations across the United States. S&P Global analyzes diversity throughout the year and regularly works with its customers to effectively promote diversity and economic parity efforts through in-depth research and analysis of automotive shopping behaviors, related market influencers, and conquest and retention strategies.

    The US Census projects 2042 to be the year when the current minority population led by African Americans, Asians, Hispanics and Native Americans will become the majority population in the United States. The challenge we pose to the US auto industry is “What are you doing today to prepare for the future majority of tomorrow?” The Diversity Volume Leadership Awards provides facts regarding which models are leading with the growing diverse community across the country.
