The Edmunds Testing Team evaluates some 200 cars each year. Each vehicle is driven on a standardized road test loop and visits our test track for instrumented testing in controlled conditions. Our time behind the wheel is used to develop ratings that describe how a car stacks up against its direct rivals in a particular size and price class.

Bookmark for the wife.
I’ll read this next year, when there are some actually available for purchase.
Funny......but true. :)
Husband bought his first new car ever this year - a Chevy Trailblazer. Ratings are pretty decent here. Thanks for the post; I’ll show him.

Not only available, knowing what I know about dealerships and their sales people I fear the inflated prices will be permanent
Supply and demand has a way of stabilizing profit margins.
Took a look. You’re right. Seems to be a great value.
Aston Martin DBX MSRP $211,786
WHAT!!??
“Supply and demand has a way of stabilizing profit margins”
Yes I agree....in a normal world.....which we ain’t in. Lol
A friend just traded in his Hyundai Palisade, the sister ship to the Telluride. He had it for two years, loved it. Great interior.
Why did he trade it in? To buy a Genesis GV80 and get 100 more HP.
I drove it back from dinner about a month ago. Quite an impressive vehicle.
Interesting.
I found it pretty amazing that so few of the cars were rated less than 7 out of 10.
I was also found it interesting that the price of a car did not seem to effect it’s rating.
That tell me, the auto industry is turning out some pretty damn good products today. Expensive as hell, but pretty darn good.
He likes it a lot.
I’m holding out for the C8 ZR1 to be released a few years down the road.
My last sports car. No batteries.
KIA has upped their game so much. And a 100,000 mile 10 year warranty. Unheard of.
Just took home a new 2022 KIA Telluride (Telly) SX everlasting silver (and bluish) last week. Wife says she’s getting thumbs up, questions, looks, it’s ridiculous. Ours was on order for 2 months. It’s ridiculous. And we got a great trade in price too. The key is...find a dealer who isn’t adding to MSRP. We found 2....only 2.
Wow, 100 more HP. I bet it’s impressive. Nice.
Ever noticed prices on Ferraris, Lambos, etc. Or a Ford GT? Or even high-end Porsches? The A-M seems like a bargain.
Subaru Crosstrek Limited is looking good.
I can remember when Korean cars were known for being cheap pieces of junk. Now Hyundai/Kia are among the best. I just bought a new 2022 Hyundai Tucson. Very comfortable and roomy. Great interior.
