Power U.S. Initial Quality Study (IQS). This study is based on feedback from hundreds of thousands of new vehicle owners who share their experiences during the first 90 days of ownership. That means Nissan has fewer problems during those crucial first months than any other mass market brand.

What is the J.D. Power Initial Quality Study?

The J.D. Power Initial Quality Study (IQS) is one of the most respected benchmarks in the automotive industry. It measures new vehicle quality based on feedback from 92,694 purchasers during the first 90 days of ownership. The study also includes repair visit data from hundreds of thousands of real-world events reported to franchised dealers. Essentially, it tracks how many problems owners experience per 100 vehicles (PP100) across 10 different categories, ranging from infotainment systems to powertrains. A lower PP100 score means better quality, so Nissan’s score of 169, well below the mass market average of 192, shows their vehicles have fewer issues than any other brand in this competitive segment. This achievement reflects Nissan’s continuous improvements in quality.

Nissan’s number-one spot in the 2025 J.D. Power Initial Quality Study wasn’t only a matter of brand perception, and it was earned through the strong performance of individual models across multiple categories. These results highlight that Nissan is delivering quality across a variety of vehicle types, from sedans to SUVs to pickups. Here’s a closer look at the top-quality Nissan vehicles in this year’s study:

• Nissan Sentra ranked highest in the Compact Car segment
