When looking to purchase a used car a buyer usually has some idea of what he or she is looking for. But according to Consumer Reports, some car brands are just better than others.
On the low end of the scale, according to the news provider, are Chrysler and Suzuki, which tied for last place in the magazine’s ranking which tested comfort, fuel economy, performance and reliability.
Chrysler saw its scores drop in this year’s survey, and the magazine had few good things to say about the automaker.
“Most models from [Chrysler] have noisy, inefficient, unrefined powertrains; subpar interiors; and poor visibility,” writes Consumer Reports. “Chrysler is the only automaker with no models on our Recommended list.”
At the top of the list continues to be Japanese automakers, with Honda, Toyota and Mazda all in the top four of the magazine’s list.
It says that Honda, and its luxury brand Acura, continue to make some of the best cars on the market and says the reliability of the cars are better than any other automaker.
The findings of Consumer Reports seems to turn into popularity for Honda as a recent report from Cars.com finds that the Honda Civic and Honda Accord are two of the most popular cars on its site.
