Unlike the J.D. Power Initial Quality Study (IQS), which tracks the number of problems owners experience with their vehicles in the first 90 days of ownership, the APEAL study ranks vehicles based on "design, performance, safety, usability, comfort, perceived quality and other factors."
Porsche outscored Dodge this year, 888 to 856, on a 1,000-point scale. Genesis and Cadillac rounded out the top 3 premium brands, while Dodge was followed by Ram and GMC.
