Have you never looked at new cars? It has always been that way; the new editions are always the "next year's" model-year. And so any awards will also relate to that model-year.

It’s like school years, or football seasons

I knew the next model came out the year prior, it just never occurred to me that they would just decide right away, even before the year that they're celebrating.
