U.S. magazine Consumer Reports has once again published a list of vehicles owners like the most. The results are from the 2022 Annual Auto Surveys, involving more than 300,000 vehicles from the 2020-2022 model years, as well as some 2023 models.
The team used criteria like price, performance, reliability, comfort, enjoyment and more, then came up with a satisfaction score based on the percentage of owners who responded "definitely yes" to the question of whether they would buy the same vehicle if they had it to do all over again.
Keep in mind that the most satisfying models or brands aren’t necessarily the best on the market. They may not rate well on other measures such as crashworthiness or long-term reliability.
The Tesla Model Y was the best-selling car model in 2023, topping 1.15 million sales. It was followed closely by the Toyota Corolla. Overall global car sales grew to roughly 75.3 million units in 2023, up from 67.3 million in 2022.
According to Consumer Reports, the most liked car brand in 2023 is Porsche, followed by Genesis, Tesla, BMW and Subaru. On the other hand, the least liked brands, in order, are Infiniti, Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan and Cadillac.
COLCHESTER, CT — BMW for the first time landed the top overall spot in Consumer Reports' (CR) annual Auto Brand Report Card Rankings, narrowly edging out last year's winner, Subaru.
Toyota doesn't just have the best-selling sedan, it also has the best-selling compact car. And Corolla sales were up 4.6 percent through 2023 despite the current model being several years old and due for an update.
Luxury brand Lexus gets ranked first, with models like the 2023 Lexus GX proving to be the most reliable. They are also doing well in the hybrid model section. Better fuel economy, low maintenance costs, and top-rated technology are what you get when you buy a Lexus.
Maruti Suzuki launched the Baleno-based crossover, the Fronx, in the country in April. The model was one of the most popular cars of 2023, especially for its design, features, and performance. The Fronx can be had in five variants at a starting price of Rs. 7.46 lakh (ex-showroom).
Experts say that 2024 will be the best year to purchase a new car since 2019. As interest rates slowly drop throughout the remainder of the year, payments will become more manageable. Don't overlook manufacturer rate promotions, as they can save you thousands of dollars.
Car dealerships have wildly varying customer satisfaction ratings when it comes to auto repair prices, wait times and overall service, with Hyundai, Jeep and Kia scoring the worst, according to the latest survey from Consumer Reports released Wednesday.
To put these rankings in context, CR's top five brands ranked on average predicted reliability — Lexus, Toyota, Mini, Acura and Honda — all scored in the 70s, making them twice as dependable as many of the brands listed below, according to CR's methodology.
