Lexus has regained its top spot from Porsche in this year’s Initial Quality Study conducted by J.D. Power and Associates, with Cadillac, Hyundai and Honda rounding out the top five.
Two very important studies that come from J.D. Power every year include one dealing with the first three years of ownership, which offers a glimpse at how well a car will hold up over that time period, and another being the Initial Quality Study, which asks questions about the first three months of ownership.
There’s always vigorous debate — especially in our comments — about the IQS study and its real value to car shoppers. We’ll just weigh in with the fact that the more information with which you can arm yourself, the better. Plus, many newer models won’t be listed on the three-year dependability study.
