2011 J.D. Power UK survey results
By Brett Davis | May 31st, 2011
J.D. Power and Associates in the UK have released the 2011 J.D. Power Survey results, which consists of ratings from 16,840 motor vehicle owners, who judged their own cars as a long-term product.
The survey produces results that can provide real-world advice when it comes to buyers selecting a new car. Each survey taker provides as much detail as possible on what their particular model of car is like to live with.
Every car is rated using the same marking process, including everything from dealer costs to mechanical repairs. Each car is then put into one of nine different categories, including City cars, Family cars and SUVs.
Taking top spot for the City car category was the Toyota Aygo with a score of 80.2 percent. Owners’ main areas of concern were the noisy engine, very small boot and poor overtaking ability, although these elements weren’t high on the priority list to begin with. Other highly-rated cars in this category included the Fiat 500 (79.9 percent and the Hyundai i10 (79.8 percent).
(Nice to see a Fiat doing much better if this has been posted earlier please remove.Thanks.)
