What makes Edmunds Top Rated different from the slew of awards you've seen before? We don't just rate new cars — we take into account entire segments to determine which car rises above its class. It doesn't have to be new to be the best, and that's why the Honda Civic and Ford F-150 are both repeat winners this year.

About Edmunds Top Rated Awards 2023

The 2023 Edmunds Top Rated award winners were selected by the Edmunds editorial team in part based on informed opinions gathered during its vehicle testing and ranking process, including the Edmunds EV Range Test for electric vehicles. Edmunds’ editors selected the overall winners from a group of finalists that consisted of each of the highest-ranked eligible new vehicles in their vehicle classes assigned by Edmunds. Eligible vehicles must have undergone the full Edmunds testing process by November 1, 2022, and be available for sale as new on January 1, 2023. The top-ranked vehicles are those with the highest overall test ratings based on the following criteria: performance, comfort, technology, fuel economy and value.
