Kelley Blue Book Names Toyota as Brand with Best Resale Value

It isn’t something that everyone considers when buying a new car, but resale value should always be considered when purchasing a new vehicle. Don’t you want to get as much as possible out of your vehicle when you trade it in or sell it for a newer model five years down the road?

The 2013 FJ Cruiser

If you said yes, Toyota is far and away the manufacturer for you.

In its annual “Best Resale Value” awards, Kelley Blue Book named Toyota the best overall brand. Not only did Toyota win the Best Brand category, but in Kelley Blue Books’ “Top Ten” list, which names the top ten overall models, Toyota took four of ten spots, including the top overall vehicle with the FJ Cruiser.

KBB also named the top vehicle in respective categories. Of the twenty-two categories, Toyota vehicles won six – the Avalon won for Best Full-Size Car, the FJ Cruiser won Best Mid-Size SUV/Crossover, the Sequoia won Best Full-Size SUV/Crossover, the Tacoma won Best Mid-Size Pickup Truck, the Tundra won best Full-Size Pickup truck, and the Sienna won the category for Best Minivan.
