BMW is #1

The largest consumer survey among car owners, American Consumer Reports, has named BMW the best car brand.

Subaru, Mini, Lexus and Honda also made top five. And at the bottom we find Jaguar, Jeep and Land Rover.

BMW is usually at the top when Consumer Reports presents its annual ranking of car brands (third last year). But 2023 is actually the first time that the German brand ends up at the very top.

The ranking itself is based on four factors in which the brands are rated. It is about safety, reliability, rigorous test drives and customer satisfaction. The latter point is based on surveys where Consumer Report’s members were asked if they would consider buying a car from the same brand again if given the chance.
