Best SUV 2005
Welcome to your Best SUV 2005 resource on the internet.
IntelliChoice , the leading source for automotive ownership cost and value analysis, declared the winners of its 19th annual "Best Overall Value of the Year" awards for 2005 model year cars, trucks, vans and SUVs.
IntelliChoice's Best Overall Value of the Year awards recognize automobiles whose cost of ownership is particularly less than that of other peer models and provides a quick reference to finding vehicles that promise the best return on investment.
A list of this year's winners and more information on the awards are spotlighted in the Spring issue of IntelliChoice Magazine, on newsstands April 5, 2005.
The Best SUV 2005 winners are:
-- Best SUV Value Under $28,000 - Toyota Highlander 2WD
-- Best SUV Value Over $28,000 - Toyota Sequoia SR5 2WD
"Cost of ownership plays a significant factor in the vehicle purchasing decision and IntelliChoice's resources provide consumers a valuable service by analyzing all the necessary data that consumers are not capable of calculating on their own," said James Bell, publisher of IntelliChoice.
"As the only data-driven cost of ownership awards, we're able to give our readers the ability to feel confident and assured they have chosen their car wisely."
The IntelliChoice evaluation process gathers and analyzes information from auto manufacturers, the U.S. government, and third - party data resources to conclude the true costs of ownership of new vehicles over a five year period.
IntelliChoice also assigns a rating to more than 1300 mainstream vehicles sold in America. This insightful value rating factors the accumulated ownership costs of depreciation, maintenance, repairs, fuel, fees financing, and insurance to identify the true standout models in each class.
In addition to the eight category winners, IntelliChoice also recognizes the following SUV vehicles as class winners:
Sport Utilities
-- Compact Sport Utility Class under $21,000 - Toyota RAV4
-- Compact Sport Utility Class over $21,000 - Honda CR-V 4WD
