Top 10 Most Liked Vehicles According to Consumer Reports

Published on February 8, 2021 in Top 10 by Guillaume Rivard

U.S. magazine Consumer Reports has published a list of vehicles owners like the most.

The results are from the 2020 Annual Auto Surveys on 369,000 vehicles, with the main criteria being the driving experience, comfort, storage, in-car electronics and value. Owners were also asked whether they would buy the same car again if given the chance.

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.

Tesla once again tops the list, followed by Lincoln, Ram and Chrysler. Surprised? Subaru and Hyundai are tied in fifth place… ahead of Porsche!
