Default Kbb.com Names Most Researched Vehicles of 2005

Honda and Toyota Dominate 2005 Top List

IRVINE, Calif., Jan. 3 -- Kelley Blue Book (www.kbb.com), America's most trusted resource for new- and used-vehicle information, names the most researched vehicles during 2005. Information was collected among more than 80 million unique visitors to kbb.com, the most-visited third-party automotive Web site in the world. Visitors to the site generated nearly 360 million pricing reports to aid them in their new-car buying process.

  5. Ford Mustang  10. Honda CR-V     15. Infiniti G35   20. MAZDA3
Honda and Toyota dominate kbb.com's most researched new vehicles list for the 2005 calendar year, with the two brands together capturing eight out of the top 10. Four domestic vehicles managed to make the top 20 with consumers during 2005. Two were from Ford - the Ford Mustang and Ford Escape -- and two from Daimler-Chrysler -- the Chrysler 300 and the Jeep Grand Cherokee.

"The most-researched vehicles list makes it clear that the import manufacturers are doing a better job than the domestic makers in conceiving and producing high-volume vehicles," said Jack R. Nerad, executive editorial director and auto analyst for Kelley Blue Book/kbb.com. "The Big Three automakers used to dominate the top sellers, but this list is another indication that imports are mainstream vehicles to a broad cross-section of Americans."
