Toyota has reinforced its position as one of Britain’s top manufacturers when it comes to making cars that are big on quality, owner appeal and value for money. That’s the message from the results of this year’s J.D. Power and Associates/WhatCar? Vehicle Ownership Satisfaction Study (VOSS), which shows Toyota maintaining its fifth place ranking from last year, but with an index score up by nine points.

The star performers for Toyota were Aygo and Yaris, which respectively achieved the top ranking in the VOSS City Car and Small Car (Yaris equal top ranked) categories, while the full hybrid Prius was second ranked in the Upper Medium Car category. Verso and RAV4 emerged as the third-ranked MPV and SUV.

Overall Toyota was unmatched by any other manufacturer in the Ownership Costs section of the survey, which covers issues such as fuel consumption, insurance and the cost of servicing and repairs.

The study was among owners of cars around two years old and Toyota is confident that its leading performance in cost-of-ownership will strengthen, as the efficiency benefits of Toyota Optimal Drive technologies- a key feature of all new models over the past 18 months – come into play.

The Toyota Aygo is not available in Singapore but it comes in the form of Peugeot 107 and Citroen C1.
