BMW Secures First Place Once Again in Consumer Reports’ Annual Automaker Brand Rankings

At Competition Auto Group, we understand the importance of reviews—whether from loyal customers or respected sources like Top Gear. We’re proud to celebrate the achievements of BMW and BMW M, especially as BMW has claimed the top spot in Consumer Reports’ annual Auto Brand Report Card rankings for the second year in a row. Last year, BMW earned this prestigious recognition for the first time, and this year, the brand continues to excel.

Consumer Reports evaluates automakers based on road-test scores, predicted reliability, owner satisfaction, and safety. BMW excelled in every category, showing improvements in both reliability and customer satisfaction. The publication is no stranger to BMW’s performance, naming the 2022 BMW M4 Competition xDrive Coupe as one of the quickest cars tested by Car and Driver in 2022. This year, BMW expanded its excellence with 12 models tested for 2024, including four eco-friendly options. All models earned glowing Consumer Reports recommendations, further highlighting BMW’s consistent quality across the lineup. With an Overall Score of 82 and a Road-Test Reliability Score of 88—five points higher than Subaru in second place—BMW continues to lead the industry.

BMW’s leadership reaffirms its commitment to offering not just high-performance vehicles, but also long-term reliability and customer satisfaction. As brands like Subaru, Porsche, and Cadillac rise in the rankings, BMW stands out by providing both performance and peace of mind. When you choose BMW, you’re choosing a brand that balances cutting-edge innovation with safety and satisfaction.
