“We saw numerous repeat winners this year," said Vincentric President, David Wurster. "When manufacturers measure and manage a vehicle's total cost of ownership, they are able to consistently deliver high value to consumers year after year."
Using a stasticial model and the eight ownership cost factors, Vincentric identifies the Best Value in CanadaTM winners by measuring which vehicles had lower than expected ownership costs given their market segment and price. Ownership costs measured included depreciation, fees & taxes, financing, fuel, insurance, maintenance, opportunity cost, and repairs.
