Signs There Is No Intelligent Life At Consumer Reports: High Grades For Toyota
Published:
Last Updated:
Consumer Reports released its study of the best vehicles sold in the US. Honda (HMC) finished in first place, Subaru in second, and Toyota (TM) in third. The firm said that it suspended ratings on Toyota cars that have been recalled, but also said the Japanese car company’s rating was the same as last year.
Hyundai, which is likely to capitalize on Toyota’s problems because of its growing reputation for quality rose from ninth place in the survey last to fourth place this year.
Toyota’s Prius ranked as the best “green” car and the Lexus LS 460L, made by Toyota’s luxury brand, was rated best car overall. It is stunning that, given the claims Toyota has not been forthcoming with data about recalls, that Consumer Reports would include its cars at all.
