The Best New Cars page serves car shoppers and auto enthusiasts alike as a continuously updated reference for comparing the overall quality and desirability of the newest models, beginning with 2013 vehicles. The rankings span every brand, make and model, creating a diverse list that will provide visitors with an up-to-the-minute update of which vehicles are reigning supreme across industry reviews and rankings, fuel efficiency ratings and safety.
Total Car Score will continuously update its Best New Cars rankings as new models come on the market, making it an on-demand comparison tool for evaluating the year's best new vehicles.
"We want to give our visitors a snapshot of the best-scoring cars for the new model year while they're still hot off the assembly line," said Karl Brauer, editor-in-chief of Total Car Score. "When new models are released the standings can quickly change in terms of which vehicle is number one on our list. This makes the Best New Cars list an informative resource for the everyday car shopper while engaging enthusiasts who want to see where highly anticipated new releases rank according to industry authorities."
The Best New Car feature supplements Total Car Score's current car reviews and ratings tools for new and used vehicles dating back to model year 2000, making it a complete destination for discovering, researching and comparing new and used vehicles.
"The Best New Cars list allows Total Car Score to continue providing the latest and most reliable information about new vehicles as they come to market," said Brauer. "This gives our visitors access to the most comprehensive and up-to-date vehicle ratings data, allowing them to effectively research and buy the newest models with full confidence in their decision.
"Not every 2013 model has received a valid Total Car Score yet. We expect the top scoring cars on this page will shift in the coming months, which is why we created this real-time tracking tool for our users," said Brauer.
