The research for the best vehicle was conducted by Kelley Blue Book's own data for new cars for the initial five-year ownership period. Depreciation and fuel costs are the two greatest expenses for the owners, but there are also other factors that impact the costs of owning a car.

The 5-Year Cost to Own information is also based on finance and insurance fees, maintenance and repair costs, and state fees for all new models. The information and award exist to help shoppers make more informed decisions when buying a vehicle and break down the ownership cost details.

INFINITI's QX80 is the winner of Kelley Blue Book's 5-Year Cost to Own Award based on depreciation costs that are estimated to be thousands of dollars less than other domestic and European SUVs In the Luxury Full-Size SUV/Crossover category, said Eric Ibara, director of residual values for Kelley Blue Book.
