If you look at the model breakdowns, Honda’s score is really really really propped up by just the HRV and non-hybrid CRV.
I’m sure the overall score is weighted according to all responses instead of by model, but enthusiast perception is usually average across all models not weighted by model popularity, because enthusiasts usually buy the niche performance vehicles instead of the barebones cheapest model that gets the high score and heavy weighting.
So if we did a average of average model scores:
Toyota would have 70 instead of 76.
Lexus would have 70 instead of 79.
Mazda would have 69 instead of 67.
Acura would have 62 instead of 70.
Honda would have 60 instead of 70.
Hyundai would still have a score of 56.
Which matches the narrative of the subreddit pretty exactly.
