Unfortunately, to date, there is no sane vehicle reliability rating in Russia, and therefore we value such an important vehicle parameter from reviews of friends and various forums.
But the British insurance company "Warranty Direct" has identified the most high-quality models produced since 1997. They have made a rating of reliability of cars, the first 10 positions from which will be given below.
When compiling this list, the insurance company took into account the number of machine failures and the cost of repairing it. By the way, Warranty Direct made a separate reliability rating for cars by brands. It is expected that the first positions in it are occupied by Japanese manufacturers: Honda, Toyota, Suzuki, Daihatsu.
Car reliability rating
At 10 positions - "Honda Jazz".
Another name is "Honda Fit". The first generation of these cars immediately after its debut in 2001 was a real hit. In 2002, "Honda Jazz" beat out in the sales leaders, ahead of "Toyota Corolla". This hatchback is very simple to operate, and its safety level is so high that at that time it was beyond competition.
"Toyota Yaris" occupies the 9th position .
Compact hatchback, which also quickly became popular all over the world. In 2010, the total number of cars sold was 3.5 million in 70 countries! This car is known for its durability: 200 000 km mileage is not a problem for it!
In 8th place - "Mercedes-Benz E-Class".
This representative of the well-known company is the first of the luxury cars that got into the reliability rating of cars. Sedan rightfully earned the image of a quality vehicle for wealthy owners. After all, according to statistics, only 1 in 10 cars per year falls into the auto mechanic. In addition, the German is known for the highest security.
7th place - "Mazda MX-5".
In addition to sports style, the car can boast of reliable management and assembly. A quality and unpretentious "iron friend" for absolutely little money!
In sixth place - "Volvo S40".
Despite the small shortcomings of this car, its safety is beyond doubt. This, perhaps, its most powerful advantage, along with the price, a rich bundle and a stylish interior.
5 place - "Honda HR-V".
A capacious trunk, high cross-country ability and visibility are perfectly combined with maneuverability, mobility and economy of this car.
4 place - "Toyota Aygo".
This car can boast of high reliability and maneuverability. However, it has a fairly high price tag, for which it is not particularly popular.
At 3 positions - "Suzuki Alto".
Its undoubted plus - low price. This car is easy to manage, quality assembly, simple mechanics and maximum economy. Perhaps the only drawback is a rather unpresentable appearance.
In second place - "Opel Agila".
Practical, powerful, easy to clean and, most importantly, quite safe. Although there are disadvantages: uninteresting interior and high cost.
And he leads the reliability rating of Mitsubishi Lancer.
Practical to use, affordable for everyone, with a spacious interior and high safety - it's all "Mitsubishi Lancer"!
