The countdown is on! Builders have less than a week to secure their spot in the running for the 2025 SEMA Best Engineered Vehicle of the Year Award. If you’re showcasing a feature vehicle at this year’s SEMA Show, November 4-7, Las Vegas, now’s your chance to gain industry-wide recognition for engineering excellence before the October 29 deadline.
Now in its third year, the award honors a featured vehicle at the 2025 SEMA Show that demonstrates exceptional engineering throughout the entire vehicle or an aspect of the vehicle that goes beyond just physical appearance. It also aims to inspire more engineers to enter the automotive aftermarket by highlighting their impact on the automotive specialty-equipment industry and placing a spotlight on the symbiotic relationship between a vehicle's design and engineering.
To be considered for the award, builders must upload a photo, video and description of the engineering content included in the build, as well as the location of the displayed vehicle at the SEMA Show. Entries are being accepted until Wednesday, October 29 at this link.
The award winner will be announced at the 2025 SEMA Show on Thursday, November 6, in SEMA Central.
