Every year, J.D. Power awards companies for top customer satisfaction in different industries. Last year, the Tesla, Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) Model 3 received the top satisfaction rating in J.D. Power's U.S. Electric Vehicle Experience (EVX) Ownership Study. But this year, Tesla was not able to retain the top spot.

Rivian Automotive Inc's (NASDAQ:RIVN) R1T all electric pickup truck took the top spot in J.D. Power's 2023 Electirc Vehicle Experience study, as shared by Electrek. The R1T ranked highest in 7 of the 10 categories, including driving enjoyment and interior and exterior styling. Overall, owners of EVs are more satisfied now than they have been in past studies. The biggest frustrations of owners are related to charging infrastructure for brands outside of Tesla.
