成立于1986年、与J.D.Power同样具影响力的市调公司IntelliChoice,在美国地区的公信力足以左右消费者购车目标,日前该公司针对2005年3月前共计1700款车,公布整体最具价值的评选结果,日本车可算是大获全胜,美国车与其他地区进口车成绩普遍不佳。
IntelliChoice所公布的这份结果,是以购买价格、维修保养费用、市场二手价格为评选标准,再加上诸多的因素来评断哪款车最具购买价值,依车型分为25种类别,结果日本车就占了多达20款,当地的美国三大则靠SUV休旅车与Pick up货卡稍稍扳回颜面,至于欧洲车款仅VW Golf入榜。日本车之所以能获得消费者认同,最主要还在于低故障、高品质且省油,不若美国车动不动就展开大规模召回;而欧洲车最大罩门就在于零件保养费用太贵。以下就是这次评选的结果:
