Customer Loyalty to Car Brands Has Decreased, Study Shows
With so many changes in the car industry, from supply shortages to rising prices, shoppers have been less loyal to car brands than in previous years, according to the J.D. Power 2023 U.S. Automotive Brand Loyalty Study, SM released recently.
“As vehicle availability increased and more choices hit the market for consumers, loyalty among brands as a whole saw a decline this year,” says Tyson Jominy, vice president of data & analytics at J.D. Power. “Additionally, owners were tied down to their vehicles for longer than normal due to ongoing supply chain disruptions, and as a result were more likely to experience problems with their vehicles.
Porsche ranks highest among premium brand car owners for a second consecutive year, with a 56.8% loyalty rate. Mercedes-Benz (50.5%) ranks second.
Volvo ranks highest among premium brand SUV owners with a 56.5% loyalty rate. BMW (56.1%) ranks second.
Toyota ranks highest among mass market brand car owners for a second consecutive year, with a 60.0% loyalty rate. Honda (55.0%) ranks second.
Subaru ranks highest among mass market brand SUV owners with a 61.1% loyalty rate. Toyota (60.5%) ranks second.
Ford ranks highest among truck owners for a second consecutive year, with a 64.6% loyalty rate, the highest loyalty rate in the study. Toyota (60.4%) ranks second.
The 2023 study calculations are based on transaction data from September 2022 through August 2023 and include all model years traded in.
