Study Highlights:
The 2023 U.S. APEAL Study, now in its 28th year, is based on responses from 84,555 purchasers and lessees of new 2023 model-year vehicles who were surveyed early in the ownership period. The study asks vehicle owners to consider 37 attributes 90 days after the vehicle purchase, ranging from the power they feel when they step on the accelerator to the sense of comfort when climbing into the driver’s seat. J.D. Power then aggregates the responses to generate an overall APEAL score on a 1,000-point scale. The study was fielded from February through May 2023.
