More than 800 of Cox Automotive's technicians participated in the initial round of competition, with 150 making it to one of five regionals. Thirty finalists earned their spot to compete at 2025 Top Tech Finals in one of three categories: Heavy-Duty Truck, Light/Medium-Duty Truck, and Trailer categories. With every move scrutinized and the clock ticking, competitors faced written and hands-on tests designed to challenge their technical skills and problem-solving abilities.
Of this elite group of finalists, these were the Grand Champions and Runners-Up in each category:
The champions will have the opportunity to compete against other industry competitors at the nationwide TMC SuperTech competition in Raleigh, N.C., this September.
“The most rewarding part of this annual event is witnessing the caliber of technicians we have across Manheim and Fleet Services. These team members didn't just compete-they elevated each other, shared knowledge, and demonstrated the collaborative spirit that defines Cox Automotive,” said Patrick Brennan, SVP of Fleet Services. “It was clear that excellence in our field is fueled not only by individual achievement, but by the communities we build together. I'm incredibly proud of our winners, finalists and all competitors at this year's event.”
“Our world-class technicians are the foundation of Manheim's continued vehicle services growth and client satisfaction,” said Alan Lang, SVP, Physical Services and Auctions, Manheim. “Their precision, adaptability, and deep technical expertise ensure we deliver exceptional service every day. Events like Top Tech showcase not just individual excellence, but the strength of our Cox Automotive technician community. These professionals embody the values that make Manheim a trusted partner to our clients and their dedication is helping to shape our future.”
