More than 84,000 people who bought a new car within the past 90 days were asked dozens of questions about various aspects of their vehicles in J.D. Power’s latest APEAL study.

Fuel economy, acceleration and audio system quality were among the characteristics that vaulted the Corvette to the top spot.

“Interestingly, storage was also an advantage vs. the competition in this segment — with owners citing more trunk space,” J.D. Power said.
