Skoda dominated the 2012 Auto Express Driver Power car ownership survey with its Yeti SUV in top spot, the Superb family car second and the Octavia in fourth.

This is the second year running that Skoda has topped Driver Power with this year’s rankings a reverse of last year, when the Superb came first and the Yeti second.

Steve Fowler, editor-in-chief of Auto Express, said: “Skoda clearly knows a thing or two about keeping its customers happy. It builds cars people love, while its dealers do all they can to please owners. Skoda’s advertising says that it’s the manufacturer of happy drivers – this year’s Driver Power survey shows it’s right!”
