After you check out our Top Picks, take the poll below to tell us which car you'd be mostly likely to buy.

What It Takes to Be Tops

A model has to have an exemplary Overall Score in its category to be a Top Pick. This single number combines road-test performance, reliability, owner satisfaction, and safety. A car that scores high in all four of these key measures is truly extraordinary.

Road Test: This score is based on more than 50 tests and evaluations conducted at our Auto Test Center by our experienced staff.

Reliability: We predict how new cars will likely hold up based on problems reported by subscribers for more than half a million vehicles (in our latest survey).

Owner Satisfaction: We rate owner satisfaction based on the percentage of surveyed owners who say they’d definitely buy the same vehicle again.

Safety: All recommended cars must perform well in CR’s accident-avoidance tests and also provide effective occupant protection in government or insurance industry crash tests (if the vehicle has been tested). Models with standard forward-collision warning and/or automatic emergency braking are given bonus points.
