Ford, Hyundai, and Kia are Consumer Guide’s most awarded brands for 2022—each earned an impressive five Best Buy awards.
“Ford, Hyundai, and Kia all have broad product lineups, offering something in most every category. Our editors named five vehicles from each of these brands to our Best Buy roster, as we found them to be among the very best in their respective segments,” said Publisher Tom Appel, who led the editors’ selection process for this year’s list.
Listen to a complete rundown of this year’s Best Buys on Episode 109 of the Consumer Guide Car Stuff Podcast, available for download on all major podcast platforms.
Since 1967, Consumer Guide Automotive’s award-winning editorial team has used a rigorous and comprehensive evaluation process to identify the vehicles worthy of serious consideration by consumers. The editors utilize objective criteria, such as price, features, performance, accommodations, fuel economy, reliability records, and resale value, to assess each vehicle.
The key to Consumer Guide Automotive’s annual Best Buy Awards is the careful evaluation of every aspect of each vehicle as it relates to consumers’ real-world driving experience. It is this thoroughness that leads consumers to check Consumer Guide Automotive reviews before buying a new vehicle.
Consumer Guide’s editorial team drives more than 100,000 miles every year evaluating what these vehicles do well—and what they don’t. Whether it is driving through the city, on highways, in rural areas, on long trips, or simply picking up the kids at school, these vehicles are tested in the same way that typical car buyers would use their vehicles.
