The 2020 U.S. Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) Study measures owners’ emotional attachment and level of excitement with their new vehicle across 37 attributes, ranging from the sense of comfort and luxury on climbing into the driver’s seat to the power they feel when they step on the gas. These attributes combine into an overall APEAL index score measured on a 1,000-point scale.

Porsche earned 881 points on the 1,000-point scale, compared to the premium brand average of 861. The study, now in its 25th year, is based on responses gathered from February through May of this year from more than 87,000 purchasers and lessees of new 2020 model-year vehicles who were surveyed after 90 days of ownership.
