Tuesday, June 9th, 2009
Honda (UK) has reclaimed second place overall in the JD Power Survey, scoring highly across all four categories – vehicle quality and reliability, vehicle appeal, service satisfaction and ownership costs.
The latest results mean Honda has appeared within the top three manufacturers for four years running.
Honda’s popular Jazz finished first in its class yet again, making it a remarkable five years in a row and an unbroken record since the supermini was first included in the 2004 results. The Jazz also finished third in the overall model ranking table, making it Honda’s highest achieving model. Civic and CR-V also achieved second place for reliability in their sectors.
Matt Gibson, Head of Customer said:
“We always strive to give our customers the best experience and achieving a consistently excellent result in the JD Power Survey is extremely important to us. This year, as well as moving back up to second place, we have also closed the gap on the top manufacturer.”
