Honda Has the Lowest Vehicle Service Costs

  • Honda Lowest Service Cost Slider

Why do Hondas have such good resale value? In addition to tech-savvy features like the Honda Sensing® suite, outstanding fuel efficiency, and consistently high safety scores from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), a new report from Automotive News states that Honda has the lowest vehicle service costs in its respective class for the 2021 model year.
 
Further building on its reputation for both the low cost of ownership and superior dependability, Honda bested the likes Hyundai, Buick, and Toyota for the least amount of service costs over the first three months (or 90 days) of ownership.
 
According to James Davies at We Predict—a company that monitors automotive data relating to maintenance, repairs, warranty milestones, and service campaigns—Honda had the lowest service costs for “basically everything that’s not the result of a collision.” The folks at We Predict obtained their data from “actual service interactions” that were “performed at U.S. franchised dealerships, independent service centers, and other facilities.” Based on the data for repairs and service costs, Automotive News reported the following figures below.

Honda Dollar Amount

Honda Service Costs

Honda service and warranty costs were $21 through the first 90 days of ownership.

Hyundai Dollar Amount

Hyundai Service Costs

Hyundai service and warranty costs were $22 through the first 90 days of ownership.

Buick Dollar Amount

Buick Service Costs

Buick service and warranty costs were $24 through the first 90 days of ownership.

Toyota Dollar Amount

Toyota Service Costs

Toyota service and warranty costs were $24 through the first 90 days of ownership.

“It’s likely that in 60 months, the Top 3 after 90 days will still be in the Top 3,” Davies said. “Cars that launch well, that go on the road initially well, tend to do well later on.”
