Consumer Reports' Top Picks of 2024: From Hybrids to BMW

Ford Motor Co.'s Maverick Hybrid is the only Detroit automaker to make Consumer Reports' annual "Top Picks" list, marking the second consecutive year for the Maverick. No Detroit-based auto brand ranked in the top 10 of Consumer Reports' brand rankings, with European and Japanese brands dominating due to solid reliability. Ford's electric Mustang Mach-E also made the "Top Picks" list. Consumer Reports evaluated over 250 vehicles and found that plug-in hybrid demand is growing, leading to expanded testing and rating for those vehicles. The organization's "Top Picks" for 2024 include vehicles from Subaru, Toyota, Ford, Tesla, Mazda, and BMW.
