J.D Power released the results of its 2022 U.S Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout Study on Thursday and found that premium brands are, on average, more favorable to consumers and that electric vehicles are still not as appealing to consumers as gas powered ones.

The study measures owners’ “emotional attachment and level of excitement” after purchasing a new vehicle and asks owners to evaluate 37 different qualities, from comfort to excitement to drive, in the survey. J.D power aggregated these responses and assigned each vehicle brand an index score measured on a 1,000-point scale.

The study found mass market brands decreased in emotional appeal as compared to premium brands, with the gap widening to 31 points from 19 points in 2021. The study also found that mass market brand satisfaction decreased by four points while premium brands increased 8 points from 2021.

The highest-ranked premium brand was Porsche with a score of 888, a six point improvement from 2021. The highest-ranked mass market brand was Dodge for the third consecutive year with a score of 882.

“Dodge is a fantastic example of knowing who your customer base is, and marketing to them, getting them to buy your cars and then satisfying them,” David Amodeo, director of global automotive at J.D power, said. “Dodge is not for everyone…they found this niche in the market, and they’ve just targeted them and really appealed to them.”

Audi and Honda were the lowest ranked premium and mass market brands with a score of 847 and 824 respectively.

The study also found that battery electric vehicles ranked lower than traditional gas powered vehicles with a score of 838 for BEVs as compared to 846 for gas powered vehicles. Tesla Motors, which received a score of 887, was not included in the BEV composite score due to concerns that “the brand’s dominance in the category would skew the results of all other BEVs.” Tesla is not rank-eligible because it does not allow J.D Power to survey owners in states where permission is required.

Satisfaction with fuel economy/range satisfaction decreased from last year amid a rise in gas prices, J.D Power said. Range/charging speed among BEV owners saw only a slight decrease in satisfaction from last year. Overall vehicle satisfaction fell one point on the 1,000 point scale, marking the first decline in eight years.

“The study was fielded as fuel prices were experiencing a meteoric rise, and that pinch at the pump is conveyed in lower vehicle satisfaction,” Amodeo said in a statement. “Battery-electric vehicles have not been negatively affected by the increase in fuel costs but do have issues related to battery range and charging time.”

J.D Power also gave out awards to automakers for models that ranked highest in their respective segment. Hyundai Motor Group received the most awards with seven, followed by BMW AG, Nissan Motor Co. and Stellantis with three each.

The study surveyed 84,265 consumers from February to May 2022 after more than 90 days of ownership.
