OK......that explains it, then. Thanks. I was not aware of that criteria. I thought it also included existing ones.

Don't think that's correct. See the 2014 results and you will see that the Ford 3 cylinder is on the list in both 2014 and 2015 as is the GM 6.2L LT1

These are Wards words not mine

To be eligible for the Ward's 10 Best Engines competition, an engine or propulsion system must be all-new or significantly re-engineered and available in the U.S. market

And this is the full list of the past winners of Ward's 10 Best Engines, with many engines being multi-year winners despite being carry-overs.

yep... they change them when something new comes up but sometimes they stay longer.... 2GR-FSE was on the list for 4 years straight.
