Consumer Reports 2017 Best Cars of the Year

 

Consumer Reports has released their annual Best Cars of the Year list for 2017, and for the third year straight, Toyota takes the win in multiple categories. Toyota makes three appearances on the 2017 list, more than any other brand, taking home the prizes for best subcompact car, best compact hybrid, and best midsized SUV. Let’s take a look at which Toyota vehicles were honored this year.

For best subcompact car, the winner this year was the Toyota Yaris iA. Although it’s a simple and affordable sedan, the 2017 Yaris iA still boasts an impressive driving experience, a smooth and reliable ride well beyond what you would expect from a car at this price. The Yaris iA also keeps up to date on the latest tech features, including an infotainment system and automatic emergency braking.

Winning the top prize for best compact hybrid of 2017 is, unsurprisingly, the Toyota Prius. Besides its famed fuel economy of 52 mpg, the 2017 edition of the Prius has also made improvements in reliability, handling, and safety features. Once again Toyota shows us exactly why the Prius is the world’s most popular hybrid vehicle.

The third and final Toyota to make the list is the 2017 Highlander, beating out the stiff competition for this year’s best midsized SUV. Toyota gives you everything you would expect from a great SUV, such as reliability and plenty of space for both passengers and storage, but also throws in a little extra. The engine comes upgraded with 25 more horsepower than last year’s model, and the vehicle comes standard with Toyota’s advanced Star Safety System.

You can find all three of these amazing vehicles at Peruzzi Toyota. Give them each a test drive and let us help you figure out which one would be the best for you!
