Kia vehicles stood out in the latest J.D. Power Initial Quality Study's findings which were released a few weeks ago. The J.D. Power Initial Quality Study aims to determine the vehicles that have the fewest problems during the first 90 days of ownership and this year, Kia ranked fourth overall among all automakers for initial quality.
Moreover, Kia did significantly better than Honda, Mazda, and Hyundai which had below average initial quality results.
To determine which vehicles offer the best initial quality, J.D. Power speaks with over 80,000 owners who purchased a 2022 vehicle. These owners are asked a series of questions in order to determine how many problems they had with their vehicle during the first three months. Vehicles are then ranked according to the fewest number of problems faced by new owners. With just 156 problems per 100 vehicles, Kia finished fourth overall in the 2022 Initial Quality study.
Moreover, the redesigned Kia Forte finished first for initial quality in its segment, highlighting once more its value and quality among compact sedans in Canada. These latest awards from J.D. Power once again prove that Kia vehicles are among the best new cars and SUVs you can buy.
