Американская независимая организация Consumer Reports опубликовала ежегодный рейтинг автомобилей. Особенностью Consumer Reports является то, что эксперты этого издания анонимно приобретают различные модели (в 2005 году было протестировано в общей сложности 200 машин) и затем ездят на них. Причем, делают это не 2-3 дня, как поступают сотрудники многих автомобильных журналов, а намного дольше.

И оказалось, что в 2005 году американские и европейские марки автомобилей потерпели сокрушительное поражение от «японцев», передает издание «Газета». Автомобили сделанными компаниями из Страны Восходящего солнца выиграли во всех 10 категориях!

Среди компактных хэтчбеков ценой до $20 тыс. безоговорочную победу одержала новая Honda Civic, которая в России появится уже в этом месяце (правда, ожидается, что в России Civic будет стоить дороже $20 тыс., хотя точных цен представительство Honda пока еще не озвучивало).

В категории автомобилей ценой $20-30 тыс. победила другая Honda – модель Accord, а среди машин стоящих в США $30-40 тыс. лучшим оказалась Acura TL (марка Acura принадлежит Honda). При этом специалисты из Consumer Reports заявили, что Acura TL является одним из самых лучших спортивных седанов за всю историю автомобилестроения. Среди люксовых седанов Infiniti M35 вытеснил Lexus LS430, что, кстати, тоже стало сюрпризом (Infiniti принадлежит Nissan, а Lexus – Toyota).

Острая борьба развернулась за лидерство среди внедорожников. И оказалось, что среди относительно недорогих автомобилей этого класса (до $30 тыс. в США) победил Subaru Forester, а в ценовой категории больше $30 тыс. лучшим стала Toyota Highlander с гибридным двигателем.

Потерпели поражение «американцы» и в классе пикапов. Здесь лучшим оказалась Honda Ridgeline. Мало того, еще одна Honda (модель Odyssey) опередила всех конкурентов в классе пикапов (раньше победу здесь обычно одерживал Chrysler Voyager).

Лучшим спортивным автомобилей стала Subaru Impreza WRZ STi, а самой экологически чистой машиной признана Toyota Prius.

хм, странные они... Войеджер и Одиссей назвали пикапами ни с того ни с сего... Rolling Eyes

Хонда может и опередила в чем то, но Лексусом ей все равно не стать : ))

еще раз убеждаюсь что наша ублюдочная пресса не может даже просто перевести отчет Consumer Reports не говоря уже об аналитических способностях. а ведь многие люди прочитав и поверив в этот бред сделают для себя соответствующие выводы.
эх в руки бы написать кто это писал.CR Good Bets

Reliable used cars

These are CR's lists of reliable cars from the 2005 survey. These are the specific models with above-average Used Car Verdicts, spanning the model years 1998 through 2005. CR Good Bets are cars that have multiple years of above-average Used Car Verdicts. (Also see our lists of used cars to avoid.) CR Good Bets and Bad Bets include only the models for which we have sufficient data for at least three model years. Models that were brand new in 2004 or 2005 do not appear. Problems with the engine, engine cooling, transmission, and drive system were weighted more heavily than other problems.

Listed by price group and alphabetically within groups. Price ranges are what you'd pay for a typically equipped car with average mileage.
