Porsche being the 2nd worst and fiat being in the top 10 is honestly really surprising to me. Things are almost the opposite in the US. According to consumer reports Porsche is the most reliable brand (if not top 3) and fiat has been the least reliable brand for awhile now.

Kareem Airlines I replaced the tires like i changed the oil and the brakes etc. Regular maintenance is not the point of this video. Every car owner has to do that.
Best thingis that parts for both brands are made in the same company, so this is surprise. Unfortunately jlr parts are made in china and sent over to uk to fit to the cars
There was a time, long ago, when buying a German car was prestige because of how much it cost to buy. Now they're prestige because of how much it costs to keep on the road.
@@LiamJose-be6xs For most people, brands like Merc, BMW, & Audi is still viewed as a luxury brand. Especially if you compared some of their "cheaper" cars to its competition from other brands.

My only question is why people hate buying range rover and always say the they are in repairs and least reliable,their suv’s are great looking and has a great social status,so why not reliable and the newer models will be more improved,so why not reliable?
@@karankaler8777 I love my L322, but it remains a car with a lot of issues. The technic and built quality isn’t what you can expect from a car with a pricetag that high. And having the image off being expensive and therefor people want one, so others think the owner is rich. But you have 3 types of LaRo owners, a rich one, the brand enthusiast and the poser. Often the second or third owner is the poser. Can just afford to buy the car, but don’t spend any on maintenance. And being a car with low built quality big things will break down. But even new ones will break down. So the overall reliability is very poor in the end. I am an enthusiast of the brand, especially the Full Fat Range Rover and the Defender. But that’s the only way you going to spend your last penny on an used Land Rover. If you are sensible, don’t buy a used (out of warranty) Land Rover.
@Max Cracker probably Hondas in UK are mostly manual, and in US they're mostly automatic. Generally speaking manuals are more realiable and cheaper to fix, so it makes sense that the manufacturer with the most reliable engines wins.
Some of the Mazdas in this time frame are still built with Ford and other manufacturer parts, especially drive train (engine and transmission). Since about 2015, after Mazda left Ford ownership/partnership, Mazda's are pretty much entirely using in-house tech.
Anyone who knows more than zero about cars. Japanese have been the most reliable cars for decades. Germans just care more about fit and finish and the "appearance" of quality.
@@1Dustin Try to say that to a dude that just bought a new BMW lol, when i asked on a BMW site of their opinion on the B48 and B58 engines in the Supra. And when i asked them about their reliability, how much it cost to repair and shit, many of them were like "BMW Makes the best engines in the world! Ive had 15 of them and never had a single problem!", as soon i asked why he had 15 he stopped responding... lol. Then i get called a Toyota fanboi when i asked if the BMW engine can be considered as reliable as a Toyota... Many BMW owners are very sensitive...
Surely you didn't buy a German car expecting reliability though? You buy them for nice materials (except BMW), decent handling, good engines, great exterior design and a brand image that's a bit ridiculously overhyped at this point but nonetheless has its appeal.
@greeniz Audi has the best quality and technology there was a list. Bmw placed behind and Merc placed 5 in quality and 7 in technology. Bmw placed first on multimedia systems.
It is completely fair, I just don’t know why is Porsche between Jaguar and Land Rover I worked at Jaguar Land Rover and they are the same shit, only difference is the smell
@@andrealves3425 Probably just statistics they did a study that can never be 100% accurate unless they have an infinite number of cars to test, this list is more of an indication rather than actual ranking.
My Lexus RX has over 310.000 km and the only thing that had to be fix was absolutely nothing! (But I beat the crap out of it many times) What an awesome brand!
JD power is so misleading lol... Its funny how some people actually follow that awards advice when an Automaker literally pays to win the price... When they put Dodge over Tesla this last test, then you know its bullshit lmao.
AS someone who used to work in a Chevrolet dealer here in the UK, i can say that the Spark was a reliable little car. The Lacetti was reliable, except just before it became 3 years old, when the steering rack needed replacing under manufacturer warranty.
average repair cost $1,89 but it breaks 3 times a day so you are late everywhere and with oily hands, they are built like shit from the factory by drunk workers eyeballing and guesstimating tolerances from rusty sheet metal
Back in the 90’s, my parents used a Lada Riva Estate 1500 as a load-lugging workhorse for their business. In comparison with other average vehicles of the day, it was not as slow as people pretend. Fit and finish was shite, styling was non-existent, comfort could’ve been better, also could’ve been worse, but it was utterly reliable. In the ten years that my parents had it, there was one problem. The rotor arm for the ignition system threw a bolt, smashing the distributor cap in half, despite this, the car still ran on three cylinders to get home.
In recent consumer reports though, mazda is ahead of honda, toyota and Lexus. Toyota is still ver close behind but honda started using CVT transmission and the new toyotas aren't really reliable as before.
I dont get it's why so many people aren't aware of the fact that this comes from a (probably relatively small) insurance company... They won't rank cars that are expensive to fix on top of the list. They want you to drive the cheapest car to repair because then they'll make the most profit. Reliability also doesn't come from the average cost to repair. Reliability is about how many cars broke down and that's never mentioned in the video... I'm a bit disappointed in Matt that he does such misinforming videos, but he and carwow are probably getting good money for this...
Just shows how wrong Car Wows Data is. If you look at Consumer Reports and TÜV Reports Fiat almost always ranks last. Meanwhile Porsche always comes in in the Solid Middle Field, most of the Time in the Top 10.
@@questionyourself718 I mean it is just the methodology of this "study" which leads to these limitations. I mean if you have a cheaper car, it is also very likely that you don't even repair minor problems, while when having a 200k sportscar, you want it to be perfect thus you repair EVERYTHING. I really prefer the longevity tests in which specific cars are taken down after a for example 100.000km and checked for wear and tear.
From a plethora of sources in Australia, this list would seem fairly accurate except for Fiat and Ford who would be further down the list. What it basically confirms is that Japan and Korea are much better at screwing a car together than the Europeans and Americans. Pity that the list did not include Jeep and Dodge who would have made Land Rover look excellent for reliability.
Actually, Rolls Royce is the most reliable 'brand' in the world, is the only manufacturer who gives to his owners a 8 year warranty "12 if you follow the manual", all Rolls Royce are handmade and checked before they go to the street, every part of the car is signed by the person who made it "If that part is bad or in bad conditions, the worker has to assume the responsability of that" there is a saying in Rolls "If a part of the car needs 4 screws, we put there 16", they even have workers for cheking if seat threads are allright, imagine, if other manufacter need 2 workers doing something about a car, they put in the same situation 4 workers, they hardly ever cut on expenses. Rolls Royce doesnt appear in any reliability list because they made less than 100 cars per year, do you think when you pay 400k for a car you are paying only the brand? Hell no! Greetings from Spain!
@@RJaviALR What is your source for that 12 year warranty because I can only find a 4 year factory warranty on the official website of Rolls Royce. Perhaps Rolls Royce offers an extended warranty option, but honestly; all major manufacturers have that these days. Plus; I have no doubt that Rolls Royce's building quality is better than it's rivals, but that also means parts are much more expensive to replace (especially genuine Rolls Royce parts), plus; luxury cars these days are all about having the latest technical gadgets. These are things that become outdated and break usually rather fast. That is also why all the modern luxury cars have such a low reliability score compared to a cheap but basic Toyota.
@@daile8799 It's a nice pleasant driving experience. The engines are the smoothest feeling. Probably has something to do with how long they last. You can just feel how well put together the car is. Even at way past 100,000 miles. Had an Acura at 278,000 feel and drive perfect.
I bought a Toyota Camry a few months ago so I feel pretty secure and happy with my purchase as it was between Toyota and Honda so I’d have made out good either way.
Till today I've been with my jeep frank cheerokee 2015 . With 126k miles done on it it still runs smoothly like a clock. Excellent reliability till today . 5 years done and no issues till now
It isn't just about how reliable the car is in terms of how seldom it breaks down but also repair costs. Also 1 out of 3 old fiat 500 is still on the road. What other car company has 1/3rd of any model on the road out of which the YOUNGEST is 35 year olds? The bad rep of Italian cars stems from a disastrous production of Alfas which used Russian steel and rusted like nothing. And finally if a seat does not have electric seats they can't break and you don't have pitstop drawing down the average for the brand.
Yep. My friend’s 2016 Toyota Corolla broke last week. Had to tow it and the repair costed him 1000$ at a shitty mecanic. So much for the Toyota reliability :) (68 000 km)...
My neighbour has owned her Yaris Verso from new (20 years) with no trouble. Going back further, a friends grandfather had his Carina 2 from new in 1985 until well into the 2000's trouble free. Same story with my great aunts 1977 Celica she drove from New into the 2000's trouble free.
I bought my Civid 1.6 dtec from new in 2013 and 96500 miles later it has never missed a beat and does not burn a drop of engine oil. A brilliantly engineered car.
As someone who drives a new VW. I am just like....Well at least we are not bottom of the barrel unrealiable.......heh he ehh. THANK GOD I am leasing it. RIP all the second hand 80000+ KM buyers though. At least they are nice until they start breaking. I don't like it that VW is ranking low, but you got to face reality when it is there, even if you like a brand. And since most brands did a get a 60-70% rating you could (sadly) say that most VW brands did averagely well. but the fact that 60-70% is almost the norm, says a lot about general reliability I guess.
VW's reliability is pretty average I'd say. Got no clue where that perception of them being horrible comes from, seems to be a thing on the internet only.
For the price of a new golf (basic 27.245 euro) you can get a new Lexus CT200h (basic 27.400 euro). When fully loaded, the lexus comes at least 2k cheaper. Less consumption, bigger engine, more power, reliable, way more comfortable and the build quality is superior.
Yes, Honda! Have two of them, Civic and CR-V. Very reliable, economical and reasonably fun cars. My older CRV I owned for more than 10 years with 150000 miles and had no issues other than a AC compressor clutch. Replaced it with a new CRV, also a fantastic car.
I think the car's reliability also waries on how you treat the car. My dad has a 2007 Audi A4 1.9 tdi and it's Got 200.000 miles on it. And the only thing that is broken is the glovebox😁
I have an old Crv 2004 facelift, and that old car did have some problems like leak, door hard to open, but those things are not often happening. That old car is reliable and it's still good for long travel... Happy for my old Honda ❤
Can confirm the Lexus ranking, having previously owned a 2004 RX330 (totaled one an accident) and currently owning a 2011 RX350 and a 2016 IS300 F-Sport, I can tel you firsthand that they’re remarkable reliable. Never had an engine problem. The old ‘04 RX330 once had a bad alternator after about 270k miles, but other than that they’ve never broken once. Even the ‘11 RX350 with 250k miles hasn’t had anything go wrong. The ‘16 IS300 F-Sport is barely even broken in at 52k miles, and hasn’t even been to the shop for maintenance yet!
Remember that the quality of the car matters, but also the drivers. Certain brands attract certain people who drive in a certain way. Insurance company’s know this because some cars are more expensive to insure than others, not only because the probability of breakdown, but also probability of a crash. Since some brands are more likely to crash, they are probably driven more aggressively and therefore will break down more often, even if the quality is good. Something to keep in mind.
agree. if you got a 300hp+ car you probably want to make use of all that horsepower every now and then. cars beyond a certain amount of money become a status symbol, to people its more than a car, its to show off their place in society and that does include showing off the capability of the cars. somebody who buys toyota or honda, brands who exclusively sell affordable cars, do not care about such thing. you dont buy a prius to brag about it
This is REALLY weird... In Germany we have the bi-annual TUEV checkup for every car; every year there's a "TUEV Report" for sale at the newagents', which, in addition to giving the pros and cons for each individual model, also has vast tables for each year of first registration, ranking the cars by reliability. Each year FIAT and Dacia "fight" for the places at the very bottom of those tables. [Must be that FIAT simply can't build left-hand-drive cars. 😉]

I was expecting honda at somewhere at the top but I wasn’t expecting it to be the most reliable, I thought it would be 1. Toyota. 2. Lexus. 3. Honda do you agree with me ?
I agree ☝🏼 but they are so ugly and boring cars, another thing that people fail to realise is that German cars are pulling around 600hp so they’re much more chance to break so it’s not a fair comparison
@@AA-os1sg man I’m driving a Mercedes Gle Coupe Amg 63s and a Bmw M760Li so for me is definitely boring even when compared with smaller series I think there’s no comparison at all, I’m on my 40s business owner and I wouldn’t take a Honda if it’s free unless I can sell it
Their list seems fair, this analysis is more of cost of repairs. Europeans actually use more of small models of these brands compared to the Americans. He's technically saying Honda jazz truly never breaks down
@@oyetim1506 yeah I noticed this too, that's probably why mitsubishi was so low on the list, most of their sales portfolio is in larger, more expensive cars so that bumped up the average repair cost. And why fiat ranked so highly with the fiat 500 being so ubiquitous.
While this is actually quite good at giving you a rough idea of the benefits / drawbacks of these brands...we have to remember that there are an exponential number of variables that come into play that can significantly impact the decisions and ratings given. E.g: - Which cars are / aren't chosen - Model variations within a make - Driver-induced issues vs. Wear-tear - Total number of cars for each make - Representation across all fleet - Factors determining reliability - Warrantywise's sponsors!
there are 500 other parameters not in this statistics counted which make this video worthless and more like advertisig for Honda, Lexus and Toyota, ok iam happy for Honda, because they are kinda small - but still this statistic is so unscientific i just want to scream
Lòng Nguyên- maybe a cyclical pattern where companies increase and decrease quality periodically. It happens all the time when new executives come in and start cutting corners to maximize profits.
@@chrisd6736 Yeah man and holy shit, after I said that I had did some research and of a recent report, Genesis (Hyundai's luxury brand) was considered the most reliable brand in the US. Crazy how hyundai has established themselves
Thats not obvious at all, the more you pay for a car, the better quality and reliability it should have, thats common sense with literally everything else on the market, and it shouldnt be any different with cars. If you truly wanna make this fair then lets count in used car value as well, German cars depreciate faster than a cement block hits the sea bottom.
@@GAMEVIDSnorwegian422 yes, you do get better quality parts, and if they break, they are more expensive to produce and therefore more expensive, that's the thinkg OP tried to say i believe

Al mac I've never owned a turbo porsche but what I've heard from chatting with guys at the dealership during oil changes they are pretty reliable as well. An owner in there had 150k miles on a 2010 Cayenne, 2nd owner running strong
A 9 year old Honda may be more reliable than a Toyota. But not the recent ones. I have an 07 Accord past 200k miles. Still going strong. Just change the oil,brakes and tires and drive.
This list is so wrong, if you check the official rating of most reliable brands, you will be right, because Lexus is in the first place, followed by Porsche is the second place, Toyota in the Third one, Honda in the Fourth place and I do not remeber correctly who was in the Fifth position, but I think it was Audi.

Javier Álvarez Herrera this is going off of a warranty website. People are far less likely to buy a warranty on a reliable vehicle so it skews the data a bit.

Dacia is a blend between Renault and Nissan tech but assembled in their own factory. European Dacias are built in Romania and are apparently much better built (steel protected from rust using zinc much better), while British and Asian Dacias are built in India and are nowhere close. Afaik the TCE 90 and TCE 100 engines are reliable as hell, mainly because they are super simple (no EGR, no DPF crap, just regular old indirect injection, chains instead of belts etc.). There are Dacias on literally every corner here and they are good cars. The older SCE engines had some flaws but recently they switched to the TCE 100 engines which have an amazing reputation afaik

James Bond Well good sir we have had Land Rovers and Jaguars in our family for decades now and i have to tell you that your friend is totally, indisputably, absolutely, correct. Our first Discovery had its rear diff break right after the warranty ended. The dealership wanted to compensate part of the costs but the manufacturer gave us the middle finger, despite the issue being commonplace. The new discovery had a commonly known issue with freezing intercoolers breaking the turbos, and the manufacturers answer to us was along the lines of “yes good sir we know this is quite an unpleasant thing to happen in the middle of the winter out in the forest in the extreme cold but not to worry, we will sort you out with a new turbo at the totally reasonable price of 4000£”. I will leave this story here and not touch on the other LR’S or our JAGs as this message would never end. Yet once again we find ourselves at the dealership looking for a new Landy. Call it stupid all you want, but they are such nice cars when they work that it’s like the worst best kid you have. They might wreck your house but you still love them even if others don’t understand why.
@@SuomiFinlandPerkelee O yeah, no doubts it feels real good driving a Rover... when it's working... By the way to be fair these days fixing any car is very costly.

A very logical solution is to don't keep a car more than two-three years, just enjoying driving a new car and not dealing with the repairs.
In my experience, Hondas are not as reliable as Toyotas (having owned both, each for years). I will never buy another Honda. My current car is a Toyota, and any car I may buy in the future will also be a Toyota/Lexus.
After owning several 2010s and newer manual hondas I can say they are quite reliable and rarely in the shop, however I always get issues with poor fuel economy when they hit 100,000 kmish

I mean my uncle had a Fiat Uno and it lasted a long time. I read that Fiat owners say that the Fiat Panda is very reliable. They said its a good little car to have up in the Alps in Northern Italy on tight roads and small villages. I think Scotty mean’t Fiat is bad because of the crappy American car companies they own such as Chrysler and the quality control being bad with cars made in the US. That being said there are certain Fiat models that are just bad quality.
I have had 3 new Hondas, but my favorite Honda, was a used 2003 Honda Civic, a 2 door, 5-speed manual shift. It was the smoothest engine I ever had. It got 44 mpg. I drove it 100,000 without a single problem and only parted with it when I moved overseas. I still miss it.
I can see a cost of ownership video coming up. If the Germans are so good at engineering, then why arent they better on reliability? PS: We are missing the contextual data, which does make a massive difference as oits omp[ossible to gain a proportional comparison with other cars as to how often this happens i.e is it every six months or is it every 5 years? That will be the difference between tolerable to ridiculously expensive and annoying. He says that its a trade secret/ sensitive, which I get, but its omission also prevents us getting a realistic understanding of just how unreliable a car is.
Cost? They put too many technological gimmicks, driving up costs. So they cut corners anywhere they can I guess. Also to make customers sell their older cars and buy newer models maybe.
Germans produce cars that have a blend of performance, luxury, desirability etc. Reliability is not the best. Many reliable cars have little of the other traits.
@@arminask Lexus has produced cars with all those aspects, yet being superbly reliable, and not even pricier. German cars only sell because of their past and the impression of quality, to get you to buy it. They are produced only to make a ton of money, they don't care about the reliability.

Mitsubishi offers 10 years warranty so if you are just looking at repair cost under warranty it will be inflated. Most other brands offer 4 years thus less likely to need repair during the warranty.

@@karankaler8777 I love my L322, but it remains a car with a lot of issues. The technic and built quality isn’t what you can expect from a car with a pricetag that high.
And having the image off being expensive and therefor people want one, so others think the owner is rich. But you have 3 types of LaRo owners, a rich one, the brand enthusiast and the poser. Often the second or third owner is the poser. Can just afford to buy the car, but don’t spend any on maintenance. And being a car with low built quality big things will break down. But even new ones will break down. So the overall reliability is very poor in the end.
I am an enthusiast of the brand, especially the Full Fat Range Rover and the Defender. But that’s the only way you going to spend your last penny on an used Land Rover. If you are sensible, don’t buy a used (out of warranty) Land Rover.

You know you live in a weird time when Alfa Romeo ranked higher than Porsche.....
I dont get it's why so many people aren't aware of the fact that this comes from a (probably relatively small) insurance company... They won't rank cars that are expensive to fix on top of the list. They want you to drive the cheapest car to repair because then they'll make the most profit. Reliability also doesn't come from the average cost to repair. Reliability is about how many cars broke down and that's never mentioned in the video...
I'm a bit disappointed in Matt that he does such misinforming videos, but he and carwow are probably getting good money for this...
Just shows how wrong Car Wows Data is. If you look at Consumer Reports and TÜV Reports Fiat almost always ranks last. Meanwhile Porsche always comes in in the Solid Middle Field, most of the Time in the Top 10.
Alfa Romeo has improved reliability incredibly in recent years. One of the most reliable luxury European brands now.
@@questionyourself718 I mean it is just the methodology of this "study" which leads to these limitations. I mean if you have a cheaper car, it is also very likely that you don't even repair minor problems, while when having a 200k sportscar, you want it to be perfect thus you repair EVERYTHING. I really prefer the longevity tests in which specific cars are taken down after a for example 100.000km and checked for wear and tear.
Lexus are quite expensive I would say
From a plethora of sources in Australia, this list would seem fairly accurate except for Fiat and Ford who would be further down the list. What it basically confirms is that Japan and Korea are much better at screwing a car together than the Europeans and Americans.
Pity that the list did not include Jeep and Dodge who would have made Land Rover look excellent for reliability.
Yeah, that's what most people say when FIAT surprises them... plethora of sources, ok.

Land Rover: least reliable car in the list
Bentley and Rolls Royce:we got a pass!
Actually, Rolls Royce is the most reliable 'brand' in the world, is the only manufacturer who gives to his owners a 8 year warranty "12 if you follow the manual", all Rolls Royce are handmade and checked before they go to the street, every part of the car is signed by the person who made it "If that part is bad or in bad conditions, the worker has to assume the responsability of that" there is a saying in Rolls "If a part of the car needs 4 screws, we put there 16", they even have workers for cheking if seat threads are allright, imagine, if other manufacter need 2 workers doing something about a car, they put in the same situation 4 workers, they hardly ever cut on expenses. Rolls Royce doesnt appear in any reliability list because they made less than 100 cars per year, do you think when you pay 400k for a car you are paying only the brand? Hell no! Greetings from Spain!

@@RJaviALR What is your source for that 12 year warranty because I can only find a 4 year factory warranty on the official website of Rolls Royce. Perhaps Rolls Royce offers an extended warranty option, but honestly; all major manufacturers have that these days. Plus; I have no doubt that Rolls Royce's building quality is better than it's rivals, but that also means parts are much more expensive to replace (especially genuine Rolls Royce parts), plus; luxury cars these days are all about having the latest technical gadgets. These are things that become outdated and break usually rather fast. That is also why all the modern luxury cars have such a low reliability score compared to a cheap but basic Toyota.
Honda is an amazing overall package. Reliable, driving pleasure, low cost luxury.
Wouldnt call it luxury, even at max trim.
@@daile8799 It's a nice pleasant driving experience. The engines are the smoothest feeling. Probably has something to do with how long they last. You can just feel how well put together the car is. Even at way past 100,000 miles. Had an Acura at 278,000 feel and drive perfect.
I got the Honda that went wrong . About £1200 bill, even though if I'd been in the USA it would have been covered via a recall.
I bought a Toyota Camry a few months ago so I feel pretty secure and happy with my purchase as it was between Toyota and Honda so I’d have made out good either way.
Toyota better and cheaper and I have Toyota Corolla ae100 and it is better than I thought it would be ok later
I had Toyota Sienna with 450k miles before the engine and transmission broke, used it for more than 10 years. Toyota reliable is the real deal
The accord looks better but Toyota still the kind I see
So the most reliable major european brand is Fiat :D didn't see that coming
Pretty wild
The Fiat's in the sample are relatively simple and inexpensive. Average repair bill is also low. Still, quite impressive.
Till today I've been with my jeep frank cheerokee 2015 . With 126k miles done on it it still runs smoothly like a clock. Excellent reliability till today . 5 years done and no issues till now
@Ed Ward Um, no they aren't.
It isn't just about how reliable the car is in terms of how seldom it breaks down but also repair costs. Also 1 out of 3 old fiat 500 is still on the road. What other car company has 1/3rd of any model on the road out of which the YOUNGEST is 35 year olds? The bad rep of Italian cars stems from a disastrous production of Alfas which used Russian steel and rusted like nothing. And finally if a seat does not have electric seats they can't break and you don't have pitstop drawing down the average for the brand.
Feeling reasonably confident in the 6 year old Toyota I've just bought now!
Should have many years life left in it
Yep. My friend’s 2016 Toyota Corolla broke last week. Had to tow it and the repair costed him 1000$ at a shitty mecanic. So much for the Toyota reliability :) (68 000 km)...

I don't like it that VW is ranking low, but you got to face reality when it is there, even if you like a brand.
And since most brands did a get a 60-70% rating you could (sadly) say that most VW brands did averagely well. but the fact that 60-70% is almost the norm, says a lot about general reliability I guess.
VW's reliability is pretty average I'd say. Got no clue where that perception of them being horrible comes from, seems to be a thing on the internet only.
For the price of a new golf (basic 27.245 euro) you can get a new Lexus CT200h (basic 27.400 euro). When fully loaded, the lexus comes at least 2k cheaper. Less consumption, bigger engine, more power, reliable, way more comfortable and the build quality is superior.

Can confirm the Lexus ranking, having previously owned a 2004 RX330 (totaled one an accident) and currently owning a 2011 RX350 and a 2016 IS300 F-Sport, I can tel you firsthand that they’re remarkable reliable. Never had an engine problem. The old ‘04 RX330 once had a bad alternator after about 270k miles, but other than that they’ve never broken once. Even the ‘11 RX350 with 250k miles hasn’t had anything go wrong. The ‘16 IS300 F-Sport is barely even broken in at 52k miles, and hasn’t even been to the shop for maintenance yet!
Remember that the quality of the car matters, but also the drivers. Certain brands attract certain people who drive in a certain way. Insurance company’s know this because some cars are more expensive to insure than others, not only because the probability of breakdown, but also probability of a crash. Since some brands are more likely to crash, they are probably driven more aggressively and therefore will break down more often, even if the quality is good. Something to keep in mind.
Absolute nonsense
I agree witt you, everthing depens how you drive
talking insurance, yes. talking breakdowns, nonsense
agree. if you got a 300hp+ car you probably want to make use of all that horsepower every now and then. cars beyond a certain amount of money become a status symbol, to people its more than a car, its to show off their place in society and that does include showing off the capability of the cars. somebody who buys toyota or honda, brands who exclusively sell affordable cars, do not care about such thing. you dont buy a prius to brag about it

He's technically saying Honda jazz truly never breaks down
Lol
@@oyetim1506 yeah I noticed this too, that's probably why mitsubishi was so low on the list, most of their sales portfolio is in larger, more expensive cars so that bumped up the average repair cost. And why fiat ranked so highly with the fiat 500 being so ubiquitous.
While this is actually quite good at giving you a rough idea of the benefits / drawbacks of these brands...we have to remember that there are an exponential number of variables that come into play that can significantly impact the decisions and ratings given.
E.g:
- Which cars are / aren't chosen
- Model variations within a make
- Driver-induced issues vs. Wear-tear
- Total number of cars for each make
- Representation across all fleet
- Factors determining reliability
- Warrantywise's sponsors!
there are 500 other parameters not in this statistics counted which make this video worthless and more like advertisig for Honda, Lexus and Toyota, ok iam happy for Honda, because they are kinda small - but still this statistic is so unscientific i just want to scream
Funny how these lists have barely changed in 30 years.
What do you expect?
Lòng Nguyên- maybe a cyclical pattern where companies increase and decrease quality periodically. It happens all the time when new executives come in and start cutting corners to maximize profits.
I believe Hyundai and Kia had went up. Previously known as being unreliable now they're actually pretty good.
somethung- ya for sure when those brands first came to US they were amongst the lowest quality cars. I think they have really stepped up their game.
@@chrisd6736 Yeah man and holy shit, after I said that I had did some research and of a recent report, Genesis (Hyundai's luxury brand) was considered the most reliable brand in the US. Crazy how hyundai has established themselves
Tbh starting prices of cars should be really counted in as well, it's obvious that to fix 100k Car is more expensive than 30k car...
Thats not obvious at all, the more you pay for a car, the better quality and reliability it should have, thats common sense with literally everything else on the market, and it shouldnt be any different with cars. If you truly wanna make this fair then lets count in used car value as well, German cars depreciate faster than a cement block hits the sea bottom.
The Gaming Norwegian Don’t think so otherwise more expensive car companies would always be the worst like Lamborghini and Ferrari
@@GAMEVIDSnorwegian422 yes, you do get better quality parts, and if they break, they are more expensive to produce and therefore more expensive, that's the thinkg OP tried to say i believe

Seeing a Range Rover on a tow truck is so rare they had to make a mock-up of it for the thumbnail ;-) True story - Matt will confirm.
True- they normally break down soon enough to simply push them back into the garage ☺
I've seen in reality also in my city
True
Lol...I’ve seen more range rovers at the side of the road with bonnet up than any other....apart from Mercedes sprinter vans.
Well, they're too heavy for most tow trucks I think. But it's not hard to find a bigger truck like the ones they use to tow vans

As a Honda owner, we may share the #1 spot.
This list is so wrong, if you check the official rating of most reliable brands, you will be right, because Lexus is in the first place, followed by Porsche is the second place, Toyota in the Third one, Honda in the Fourth place and I do not remeber correctly who was in the Fifth position, but I think it was Audi.

Javier Álvarez Herrera this is going off of a warranty website. People are far less likely to buy a warranty on a reliable vehicle so it skews the data a bit.
Drone I’m a Honda owner too. I’ve had a few issues with mine recently. Granted it’s 12 years old and has 150,000 miles on it, but that’s not the point. Something in the AC is acting wonky so it’s at the mechanic and I am stuck at home
It’s sooo cool to see so many different car brands. Here the in US we don’t get to see them and can’t drive them. Remember when I used to visit India growing up we use own Skoda ( Ocatavia, Rapid ) they were really good especially Octavia.

But where is Jeremy Clarkson's favorite brand: Dacia?
Good news!
He owns two Range rover's as his daily cars, One for his GF and a 07 for himself.
You'll find that Dacia is actually one of James May's favourite brands, based on being so cheap. Clarkson has a slightly different taste
Dacia is a blend between Renault and Nissan tech but assembled in their own factory. European Dacias are built in Romania and are apparently much better built (steel protected from rust using zinc much better), while British and Asian Dacias are built in India and are nowhere close.
Afaik the TCE 90 and TCE 100 engines are reliable as hell, mainly because they are super simple (no EGR, no DPF crap, just regular old indirect injection, chains instead of belts etc.).
There are Dacias on literally every corner here and they are good cars. The older SCE engines had some flaws but recently they switched to the TCE 100 engines which have an amazing reputation afaik

I remember like years ago one of my friends had a Mercedes authorised repair training and opened his Mercedes repair show. Every time when I saw him the shop was really busy. But he never stopped complaining that he didn't open a Land Rover and Jaguar repair shop. Than , like he told, he would be making three times more money.
James Bond Well good sir we have had Land Rovers and Jaguars in our family for decades now and i have to tell you that your friend is totally, indisputably, absolutely, correct.
Our first Discovery had its rear diff break right after the warranty ended. The dealership wanted to compensate part of the costs but the manufacturer gave us the middle finger, despite the issue being commonplace. The new discovery had a commonly known issue with freezing intercoolers breaking the turbos, and the manufacturers answer to us was along the lines of “yes good sir we know this is quite an unpleasant thing to happen in the middle of the winter out in the forest in the extreme cold but not to worry, we will sort you out with a new turbo at the totally reasonable price of 4000£”.
I will leave this story here and not touch on the other LR’S or our JAGs as this message would never end.
Yet once again we find ourselves at the dealership looking for a new Landy. Call it stupid all you want, but they are such nice cars when they work that it’s like the worst best kid you have. They might wreck your house but you still love them even if others don’t understand why.

In my experience, Hondas are not as reliable as Toyotas (having owned both, each for years). I will never buy another Honda. My current car is a Toyota, and any car I may buy in the future will also be a Toyota/Lexus.
I think your sample size is a bit lacking to draw a valid conclusion
After owning several 2010s and newer manual hondas I can say they are quite reliable and rarely in the shop, however I always get issues with poor fuel economy when they hit 100,000 kmish
Sold my 2014 Honda CR-V 1.6 i-DTEC in January 2023 after 232,000 trouble-free kilometres. One air hose, one window sealing defective in 8 years and 8 months. Apart from that, only oil, filters, a belt, brakes, tires, fluids. The best car I ever owned (and I had many brands like Mercedes, BMW, Ford, Opel, Citroen, Toyota, Mitsubishi, Peugeot). Built in Swindon in the UK, by the way.
Now I own a Japanese-built 2022 HR-V e:HEV (hybrid) Advance Style and absolutely love it. Refined, economical, stylish. Looking forward to go more than 250,000 km with it!
A major factor is not over-engineering a car means less moving parts and thus lower chance of failure.

best engines in the world, even better than toyotas
I can see a cost of ownership video coming up. If the Germans are so good at engineering, then why arent they better on reliability?
PS: We are missing the contextual data, which does make a massive difference as oits omp[ossible to gain a proportional comparison with other cars as to how often this happens i.e is it every six months or is it every 5 years? That will be the difference between tolerable to ridiculously expensive and annoying. He says that its a trade secret/ sensitive, which I get, but its omission also prevents us getting a realistic understanding of just how unreliable a car is.
Cost? They put too many technological gimmicks, driving up costs. So they cut corners anywhere they can I guess. Also to make customers sell their older cars and buy newer models maybe.
the germans today is not what the germans back then
Germans produce cars that have a blend of performance, luxury, desirability etc. Reliability is not the best. Many reliable cars have little of the other traits.
It's about a business
@@arminask Lexus has produced cars with all those aspects, yet being superbly reliable, and not even pricier.

Mitsubishi offers 10 years warranty so if you are just looking at repair cost under warranty it will be inflated. Most other brands offer 4 years thus less likely to need repair during the warranty.
