Thirty automotive journalists evaluated 33 vehicles at this year's event held at the Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, Texas on April 25-26, 2022.

The Texas Auto Writers Association was founded in 1987 by automotive journalists who wanted to provide an avenue for professional growth, development, and networking. These professionals sought to create an automotive event that was unique to Texas, and the result was the TAWA Truck Rodeo. In 2003, TAWA created an event for sedans, sports cars, and other vehicles not eligible for the Truck Rodeo. The Texas Auto Roundup, as the event is called today, is held annually at the Texas Motor Speedway. For more information, visit https://texasautowriters.org/.
