Methodology:
The brands in the YouGov Automotive Rankings 2021 were ranked based on the Index score, which is a measure of overall brand health calculated by taking the average of Impression, Quality, Value, Satisfaction, Recommend, and Reputation.
The Index Rankings chart shows the brands with the highest average Index scores between February 1st, 2020 to January 31st, 2021. The scores are representative of the general population of adults 18+.
All Index scores listed have been rounded to a single decimal place; however, we have used additional precision to assign ranks. All brands have been tracked for at least 6 months to be included in the rankings.
