Acura Wins ALG’s 2010 Residual Value Award for Best Luxury Brand

12/02/2009 – TORRANCE, Calif. – Acura announced today that for the second consecutive year it received the Automotive Lease Guide (ALG) 2010 Residual Value Award for Best Luxury Brand.  According to ALG, Acura’s line of luxury performance vehicles is expected to retain the highest percentage of their original price after a three-year period. Acura beat out other luxury brands such as Audi, BMW, Lexus and Mercedes-Benz for the highly coveted award.

“It is an honor to win the award for Best Luxury Brand a second year in a row,”

said Jeff Conrad, vice president of Acura sales.

“It sends a clear message to our customers that Acura vehicles represent a smart choice in today’s luxury market”.

Residual value is a measure used to recognize vehicle quality, reliability and overall brand strength. ALG determines the award winners after carefully studying the competition in each segment, historical vehicle performance and industry trends. Key factors that affect ALG’s residual value forecasts include vehicle quality, production levels relative to demand, pricing strategies and resale performance.
