2022 Best Cars for the Money Awards
What are they?
Considered to be an expert in rankings and consumer reports– globally, I might add– U.S. News Best Cars has published rankings of the majority of new vehicles sold in America since 2007. With the goal of putting out rankings that “empower citizens, consumers, business leaders and policy officials to make better, more informed decisions about important issues affecting their lives”, U.S. News assists more than 40 million people per month for answers and guidance.
The Best Cars for the Money Awards shine light on cars, SUVs and minivans which perfectly fuse long-term value and excellent ownership experience. According to Jim Sharifi, the managing editor of U.S. News Best Cars, “A Best Cars for the Money award represents a strong value at the dealership and over the course of ownership. These vehicles also provide a rewarding ownership experience, with comfort, features and performance that buyers will appreciate.” The Best Cars awards include: Best Vehicle Brands, Best Cars for the Money and Best Cars for Families.
How are the Best Cars For The Money awards chosen?
For each category, the victor car has the best combination of quality and value. By using a car’s score in the U.S. News Best Car Ranking, U.S. News measured quality. Scores in the rankings are based on safety and reliability data, the shared opinion of the automotive press on a given vehicle’s performance and interior, and how strongly each reviewer recommends it. The value of a vehicle is measured by checking its real-time transaction prices (given by TrueCar), and the five-year total cost of ownership data (determined by Vincentric).
Hyundai’s Success
In the rankings, Hyundai won more than any other car brand with five awards. Honda came in second with three, while Kia, Nissan and Toyota each collected one award. Three of Hyundai’s models racked in their second award (Hyundai Kona, Hyundai Santa Fe, Hyundai Tucson) while two of their vehicles earned the award for the very first time (Hyundai Elantra Hybrid and Hyundai Tucson Hybrid). Hyundai, the star of the show, shone the brightest in the SUV category, but also acquired success in the car category as well. The awards are as follows:
