Mazda6 scores high in JD Power survey

10 October 2003: The Mazda6 scored highest in buyer satisfaction in a J D Power survey in the US in terms of model improvement (over the previous 626).

In responses from 102,975 new-vehicle owners, the new model beat the Mazda 626 by eight percentage points.

Other successful redesigns which are familiar in Europe include the Land Rover Range Rover.

The study also found that the high perception of nonluxury European cars far exceed US, Japanese and Korean brands in terms of exterior styling, cockpit layout and overall performance. The Mini Cooper, Volkswagen Beetle and Golf rank highest in the nonluxury compact category.

The top five nameplates were Lexus, Porsche, BMW, Infiniti (Nissan's luxury brand) and Cadillac. The bottom five were Subaru, Jeep, Kia, Oldsmobile and Suzuki.
