How we score vehicles

The OTTO Score comes from one consistent internal method, not an opinion. Every axis is computed from published specifications and live Thai pricing, and the same inputs always produce the same result.

The six axes

Value	What you get for the money.
Safety	What published testing supports.
Efficiency	What it costs to keep moving.
Performance	What the published figures say it will do.
Practicality	How it fits daily life.
Ownership	Not scored in v1; reviews cover ownership in words instead.

The verdict ladder

Avoid - the numbers lose clearly to direct rivals.
Consider - competitive on some axes, with trade-offs to accept.
Shortlist - strong on the axes that matter most against direct rivals.
Class leader - at the top on nearly every axis.

What we cannot assess

OTTOdash does not drive the vehicles it analyzes, so ride quality, noise, seat comfort and long-term reliability are never scored. Where an input is missing we mark the axis not scored rather than substituting a default.
