> Why isn't Toyota or Subaru included on the list of Luxury vendors? The ride experience as a passenger is similar. Because the "luxury" segment is hard to define. The BMW 3 series has a similar problem. The entry level versions have synthetic materials that are a lower grade than some upper trims of Honda Accord or Nissan Altima. The build and paint quality of Accord are likely better in many cases and the car feels very solid. But there are other reasons to rank a BMW 3 series as luxury when an Accord doesn't get the same classification. Similar principles apply.
