The best value cars are those that combine a low cost to operate, good reliability, and good performance. Consumer Reports analyzed more than 200 vehicles that their auto experts have tested recently. The performance of the cars are determined based on - the cars’ relative benefits; their relative risk of having problems; and estimates of each vehicle’s five-year ownership costs. The models that perform better overall in those categories are considered to be the best value cars.
The Honda Fit has held the title of the best value car for the past four years but lost its position to the Prius because of the fact that the reliability rating of the Prius is slightly higher than the Fit’s. However, there are plenty of less expensive cars in the market too. But those cars can’t match the Prius for its comfortable ride, competent handling, roomy interior, excellent reliability, and, of course, its great fuel economy.
