The same question, asked as 3 real US audiences grounded in survey data.
Toyota leads the Automotive category in the US market with an average position of 1 and 33% engine consensus. Ford follows at average position 2. Across 10 queries for this category, 19 different brands were named; 5 of them appear in the ranking table. In 2 of 3 audience segments the AI names a different brand as its top pick (Tesla).
“Avg position” shows where a brand appears, on average, when ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity are asked for the leading Automotive brands — a lower value means the brand is named earlier in the answer. “Consensus” shows how strongly the three engines agree on that brand. Every result comes from brand-free buyer questions: the engines are asked, with no brand named in the prompt, which providers they would recommend — once on a neutral query and once from the perspective of real audience personas grounded in survey data. This scan queried a single engine, so every brand the engine named enters the ranking. The data is refreshed regularly; the current scan is from 2026-08-30.
