What is a BOVY?
Vehicles with just low ownership costs do not necessarily make good values. IntelliChoice’s Best Overall Value of the Year (BOVY) awards recognize those vehicles whose total cost of ownership is significantly lower than expected relative to their peer models, thus assisting consumers in making smarter purchase decisions. These vehicles are not just excellent values; they are the top-ranked models in their respective classes. Learn More...
