The Automotive News All-Stars awards recognize leaders making a significant impact on their companies and the industry at large. Our selections for 2023 reflect the industry's many changes in powertrains, retailing, manufacturing and beyond. Our Industry Leader is Euisun Chung, the chairman of the Hyundai Motor Group, and the CEOs of the three biggest dealership groups were all honored.

For the 12th time, Automotive News is honoring 100 leading dealerships across the U.S. for creating positive work environments for their employees. We celebrate and congratulate the stores named to the 2023 list and highlight reasons why these dealerships and their companies stand out. These top workplaces have developed career paths for employees. Many offer four-day workweeks and benefits such as paid parental leave and paid training. And they encourage employees to volunteer in their communities.

Our 12th 40 Under 40 class recognizes a group of talented leaders who are stars in automotive retail. This year’s honorees have led initiatives aimed at trimming expenses and employee turnover, boosting new- and used-vehicle sales and expanding service and parts operations. They have adopted digital retail technology and aided growth through dealership buy-sell transactions. We congratulate these young leaders and hope you enjoy reading about their accomplishments in the automotive retail industry.
