feature is in the dashboard of the top
100 best-selling new vehicles in the U.S.
We will update the scoreboard annually

Methodology: Collecting and Analyzing the Data
Data for this report was collected by an independent contractor tasked with auditing in-dash systems in America’s 100 top-selling new vehicles. To gauge radio’s in-dash standing, each dashboard was carefully analyzed for audio entertainment features and visual components, including radio text, artist, and song information. Photos were taken, and a detailed, standardized questionnaire was completed. Data was collected from new vehicles onsite at various auto dealerships between November 2023 and January 2024.
Independent broadcast radio researcher Doug Hyde and industry experts Fred Jacobs, Paul Jacobs, Joe D’Angelo, and Mike McVay, reviewed the research and offered analysis and perspectives on radio’s in-dashboard potential, challenges, and opportunities for development.
