Toyota tops the charts in every metric except for one, particularly when it comes to Value (measuring the brand that consumers think is the most value-for-money) with a score of +45.5, making it 9.8 points ahead Honda (Cars), the brand with the next highest score in this metric (+35.7). The one metric however that Toyota does not score top in is for Satisfaction (which measures how satisfied consumers are with that brand), narrowly beat out by Honda (Motorcycles) (+30.4).
Japanese brands dominate the top ten, with Honda (Cars) in second (+36.8), Honda (Motorcycles) in third (+32.0), Isuzu in fifth (+24.9), Mazda in seventh (+18.9), Yamaha in eighth (+18.5), Nissan in ninth (+17.9) and Mitsubishi in tenth (+15.8).
German automotive manufacturers make up the rest of the top ten. BMW comes in fourth (+25.5) and Mercedes-Benz in sixth (+20.1). They both fare well in the Reputation metric (which measures the corporate reputation of a brand by asking which brands consumers would be proud of working for). BMW comes in third (+35.0) and Mercedes-Benz in fourth (+29.3).
