Chevrolet Is J.D. Power’s Most Awarded Brand

Today Chevrolet was named J.D. Power’s most awarded brand of 2017 at the J.D. Power Automotive Summit ahead of the National Association of Auto Dealers Convention. Six different Chevrolet cars, trucks and SUVs won a total of nine awards in J.D. Power’s 2017 Vehicle Dependability, Initial Quality and APEAL Studies.

According to J.D. Power, “These awards highlight the automotive brands that are continually exceeding customer expectations and leading the way in terms of dependability, quality and overall customer satisfaction.”

“Chevrolet is winning with consumers because our designers, engineers and dealers are focused on delivering great products and a great ownership experience,” said Alan Batey, president of GM North America and brand chief of Global Chevrolet. “This recognition from J.D. Power shows Chevrolet’s strength and underscores the momentum we have across the board.”
