Maybe they're trying to find something worthy of praise. They've already gone through the list of official trucks and are still looking...

I can kinda see the MB or X3 being called light SUVs, but the rest are just high ridding wagons / 5 door hatches and they should be up for the car of the year, not truck of the year. I love the Countryman, but something with the same ground clearance and roof line of an AWD BMW 3-series should not be called a truck.
