The most reliable cars are not those that have been in the garage for decades, occasionally driving out of season (March-October), and then in good weather. Of course, such cars then become welcome guests at auto vintage auctions, but now we are not talking about them. The most reliable cars are those in which it took years to change only the oil, filters, brake pads Yes, change tires twice a year. And that's all: the engine does not knock, the gearbox does not crunch, the suspension does not care about potholes and potholes.
The most reliable cars - history
Previously, the Japanese were distinguished by similar behavior - Toyota Carina (the same Corolla, only in profile), Міtsubishi Galant and, if you're lucky, the 626th Mazda. Yes, and the Germans, especially the 190th gelding, were also distinguished by their amazing unpretentiousness - and occupied the first lines in the car reliability rating a dozen or two years ago.
Actually, it was from here in our latitudes that the legends and legends about the “unkillable Japanese” went (they sounded something like this: I already bought a used one for three and a half thousand dollars, traveled for three years, did not change anything and also sold for three and a half thousand dollars).
Or about the "unkillable German" - in addition to the aforementioned "gelding", his role could also appear diesel BMW 3rd series. But then, in the area of the Millennium (although, according to hardened auto mechanics - and even earlier), this is what happened: automakers behind the scenes began to artificially reduce the life of a car. Although the guarantee for through corrosion of the body or trouble-free mileage remained the same, or even more.
But if earlier the most reliable cars with the stamp “Made in Japan” or “Made in Germany” calmly nursed for two hundred thousand kilometers, and no one paid much attention to the mileage guarantee - half as much, then everything changed.
Reliability of cars has decreased: the next generations of cars have become more "pampered" - thinner metal, more plastic and whimsical electronics. And if, for example, the indestructible Land Rovers from the 50-70s of the last century, for the most part, are still on the move (like the Rolls-Royces, one of the leaders in the car reliability rating of all times and peoples), then about current cars, with all the desire, this can not be said.
The most reliable cars - the Japanese are ahead of the rest?
Determine the most reliable car- the task is far from their simplest. Because there are no objective criteria and tools for this. A more or less reliable picture (although there, for sure, will not be without exceptions) can be given by various statistical surveys, samples and reports of auto analysts.
On the other hand, the statement “there is a lie, there is a blatant lie, but there are statistics” also, it seems, has not been canceled. Indeed, after compiling some rather fundamental statistical works, one very simple conclusion can be drawn: the most reliable cars are Japanese.
In the UK, The MoneySuperMarket Group operates quite successfully - its analysts, in short and thesis, help the residents of Foggy Albion save money. On purchases, travel, smart investments - in general, on everything.
In particular, their MoneySuperMarket project was marked by a huge study on the topic "let's define the most reliable car." Analysts collected information on the frequency of breakdowns, complaints from car owners and the cost of repairs. After analyzing and counting, the researchers came to an unequivocal conclusion: the most reliable cars are Japanese!
The TOP-10 models included the revived mini-crossover Honda HR-V Suzuki Alto, Toyota Corolla, Suzuki Ignis, Honda Jazz and Mazda 2! Although, at the same time, the champion and vice-champion of the reliability rating were Korean Kia Picanto and Vauxhall Agila - British Opel.
The most reliable cars - not only from Japan
Well, in the ranking of car brands, representatives of the Land of the Rising Sun also dominate: Honda, Suzuki and Toyota occupied the podium. And Mazda, Mitsubishi and Subaru took places from the sixth to the eighth: the friendly company of the Japanese was diluted by Ford and KIA.
Surprisingly, from German cars, according to MoneySuperMarket, only Smart is more or less competitive! And Volkswagen, BMW and Mercedes are located in the third ten, behind, for example, Hyundai and even Skoda!
However, according to the results of another survey - also from the British from J.D. Power - it turns out that Czech Skoda makes the most reliable cars! The methodology of the study, which was conducted just a couple of months ago, was simple: they interviewed the drivers of the most different machines, grouping breakdowns into eight categories. And then they just brought together all the mean statistics.
Skoda, Kia, Suzuki, Nissan were in the TOP-5 of the brand rating (less than 90 negative references per 100 cars), and Mercedes-Benz and Toyota shared the fifth place. Volvo, Volkswagen, Vauxhall, Peugeot, Seat are in the second five - an absolutely heterogeneous company! Mazda, Mini and Ford fell short of the TOP-10 quite a bit.
The most reliable cars - the Japanese against the Germans ... and the Japanese!
Their study on a topic that could sound something like "the most reliable car - Japanese or not," was also noted by an equally authoritative organization from the United States - the Consumers Union. She is known for publishing a plump, illustrated magazine Consumer Reports every month, and her work principles are very similar to the “mystery shopper”.
Since the company's budgets exceed tens of millions of dollars, there are also opportunities to arrange a full-scale consumer test of machines. And at the end of 2014, Japanese cars almost completely dominated it!
In the "compact class" the most reliable car is the Japanese Scion XB (another brainchild of Toyota). Among the "hybrids" and pure electric cars, the Japanese Lexus CT 200H also won, and among the luxury sedans, another Lexus - IS 350 - outright beat the German Mercedes-Benz CLA 250.
But german cars they took a relatively convincing revenge from the Japanese in the most massive segment - in the middle class (although in the USA it means, rather, the European D-class). There Volkswagen Passat with a base 1.8-liter turbocharged engine left no chance Nissan models Altea is fresh and sells pretty well in the US.
The results of the study were not without surprises. It turned out that the most reliable car in the coupe and convertible class sports type - Honda Civic Si Coupe, which left no chance for the new Subaru BRZ (by the way, in our latitudes this, in fact, turned Toyota GT86 with a different nameplate and boxer engine attracts for the most part only “subarista” fans).
The Germans, on the other hand, turned out to be out of competition among station wagons of the “minivan” type with their already classic Audi Allroad- a good machine, no doubt. But among the most reliable cars in the SUV and pickup classes, there is not a single car with the “Made in Germany” stamp at all.
Japan, only Japan and nothing but Japan - Mitsubishi Outlander Sport(compact), Toyota Highlander(midsize), Lexus RX 450 (luxury) and monster Toyota Tundra V8 - among pickups.
The most reliable cars are the ones that are well taken care of.
Of course, reviews and studies supported by a serious statistical base are, of course, great. But at the same time, one should not forget about one more very important detail: even the most reliable car requires proper care for themselves and competent maintenance.
Naturally, some machines were originally designed with a large margin of safety and the expectation of operation in difficult conditions. But other things being equal, it is quite possible that a modest office worker Volkswagen Golf with proper care in terms of functional readiness will not yield to the brutal all-terrain vehicle Land Rover Defender or a replica of the retro-jeep Toyota FJ Cruiser.
However, it is possible that Russian motorists have a slightly different opinion - and they may well consider the good old UAZs (including the revived model 469-B), a well-established family-commercial vehicle, to be the most reliable cars. Lada Largus or an eagerly awaited novelty Lada Vesta. Not to mention the more "older" models.
The alignment is approximately as follows: UAZs are not afraid of minor breakdowns, VAZs are easy to fix, but in novelties Russian car industry it remains only to believe. Unless, of course, you take care of them with special, increased care.

Who, if not the owners themselves, will best tell about their cars? They know how many times they visited the service, they know why the car they bought did not suit them, what expectations from the operation of the car were not confirmed, and where such problems got out that they had to get into their wallet. Have you already seen
Another large-scale study was conducted by the European branch of the J.D. power. The agency is engaged in a global survey of car owners who bought their cars more than a year ago and have already driven about 30,000 km on average. A huge questionnaire was filled out by 17,200 motorists who purchased cars between January 2007 and December 2008. Questions that were asked to car owners are very diverse. They concerned the operation of car components, reliability, interior comfort, luggage transportation, up to simple general impressions about the car.
A total of 104 models from 27 manufacturers were evaluated. As a result of processing the questionnaires, cars were evaluated according to four parameters, each of which had its own weight in the final assessment of a particular model:
- owner complaints - 37%;
- quality and reliability - 24%;
- ownership and spending - 22%;
- quality of service at dealers - 17%.
The parameters “Quality and reliability”, as well as “Complaints of owners” really give an objective assessment specific car regardless of country
exploitation vehicle. But the cost of ownership and maintenance at dealers from country to country can vary greatly, since each
In the market, a manufacturer can pursue a completely different policy on the choice of dealers and prices for spare parts and repairs.
In general, the survey reflects the satisfaction of the owner with his car - by what percentage did this or that model meet the expectations of its owners.
Absolutely best result showed a crossover from Lexus. Model Lexus The RX posted a customer satisfaction score of 86.7% and was a 3% lead over the prestigious Jaguar XF sedan in second place. Not so long ago in the reliability ratings of cars brand Jaguar occupied a rather modest position, especially if these ratings were issued in Germany or the States. But now, firstly, Jaguar really began to collect fewer complaints from owners about the quality and reliability of their models, and secondly, this study was held in the UK, where they are very loyal to the domestic automaker - the pride of the British.
Third on the global satisfaction list is another Lexus, the IS sedan.
By the way, except for the Lexus RX that pulled ahead, the other 103 models showed fairly close results - there are no frank failures here: the cars are located in a tight group and the gap in the results of the second and last place was only about 10%.
Customer satisfaction is completely independent of vehicle size or body style. The top ten included a tiny urban hatchback from Toyota, a compact van from Honda, prestigious sedans from Audi and Jaguar, crossovers from Lexus and Honda, C-class model from KIA. It is noticeable that premium brands, and in particular Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, took places in the first half of the list. Together with them, Honda, Toyota, Volkswagen models firmly settled here.
And here french cars they have always been disliked in Britain, and they rank low on the customer satisfaction list. First Frenchman, Citroen C4 Grand Picasso, appears only in 37th place on the list (which it shares with the Audi A4 and BMW 5-Series), and the bulk of the French models have accumulated towards the bottom of the list.
There is another absurdity in the testimony of the British. Three absolutely identical models, produced at the same plant in Slovakia, are located in different parts of the list. car with japanese badge Toyota Aygo took 31st place, and cars with French emblems were in 90th (Citroen C1) and 99th (Peugeot 107) places.
Among urban minicars, FIAT Panda and Citroen C1 received the best marks for quality and reliability; when it came to complaints from the owners, the FIAT 500 was the least of all complaints, while the French models and the old Ford Ka received from the British in full. But as for the work of dealers and the cost of maintenance, Toyota Aygo and Smart ForTwo received high scores and were the best in the class of urban subcompacts. They were accompanied by two FIATs - Panda and 500.
In total, 23 models are presented in this category. At the top of the list are japanese models and a small English MINI. The best in quality and reliability
were recognized as Honda Jazz and Toyota Yaris. In addition, the highest rating for reliability received Mitsubishi Colt, and for the quality of the interior - Volkswagen Polo.
Bottom of the list good results shown in terms of quality and reliability Ford Fiesta, Citroen C3 and Opel Meriva, which is sold in England under the brand name
Vauxhall. The brightest, and most importantly, the most English car MINI. The highest ratings for service and cost of service in the UK received Toyota model Yaris.
And here is the first extremely unexpected result: among 19 golf-class models, the consumer liked the affordable Korean model of Slovak production the most. Great quality and reliability, no complaints and low prices service brought KIA Cee'd to first place in the class and fourth in the overall customer satisfaction rating. The KIA Cee'd has not only overtaken the class benchmark VW Golf, but also premium compacts from BMW, Audi and Volvo. The latest of these, the Volvo C30, received top marks for quality and reliability. The VW Jetta and KIA Cee'd also get high marks for reliability. The body quality was the best in the Toyota Auris, and the new Mazda3 also received the highest score for reliability.
A clear division of consumer preferences can be seen in the ratings of 12 D-class cars. The highest scores were given to Japanese models and Volvo, followed by German and French models. The highest marks for quality and reliability are received only by Toyota Prius. Another top mark for body quality goes to Honda Accord, and no other model in this class received top marks for reliability and quality. But the Accord had a minimum number of complaints. Customers were also loyal to the Volvo S40. The highest rating for cost of ownership was, of course, the hybrid Prius.
The Japanese Lexus received top marks for quality and reliability. Received the highest rating for reliability mercedes c-class. In terms of the low number of complaints, it scored high Audi model, and in part favorable cost Ownership UK consumers have chosen the native Jaguar X-Type.
Japanese automotive market finished 2017 with sales growth of 5.3%: 5 million 234 thousand new cars were sold. However, it should be borne in mind that official statistics in this country also include heavy trucks, so the list includes brands such as Mitsubishi Fuso, UD Trucks, Hino and even Scania, not to mention delivery trucks under mass brands.
The Japanese car market has a curious feature. If total sales are relatively constant and major fluctuations in demand occur only after natural Disasters then sharp ups and downs in sales individual models- a common thing on the Islands. Local buyers follow the release of new cars, and due to the fact that Japanese companies, as a rule, the set of close ones in the set consumer qualities models, the redistribution of demand between them happens very often.
Nearly 28% Japanese market occupy the so-called key-cars - cars with a length of no more than 3.4 m with an engine of up to 660 "cubes" and a maximum of 64 hp. The tax on such crumbs is one and a half to two times less than on complete cars, so the sales volume exceeds 1.44 million copies. For the third year in a row, the most popular model in Japan is the kei car (on the main photo): 218,000 cars!
Among the "ordinary" cars is still in the lead, but after a surge in demand associated with the release of a new generation, sales fell by 35% (to 161 thousand). The younger hybrid (132 thousand, minus 22%), which in other countries is known as the Prius c., is also losing the market. But nissan note with the advent of added 36% to 139 thousand cars.
The Japanese are not yet as passionate about crossover fashion as buyers from Europe, the USA or Russia, but in the past year, it seems that a turning point has occurred. The new SUV quickly burst into the top ten in the sales ranking with a result of 117 thousand cars! Although he has no obvious followers yet: the next crossover is already on the twenty-third place of the hit parade - this is the Suzuki Hustler kei car (73 thousand). But the Japanese are very fond of minivans: the most popular among them is with a result of 87 thousand cars.
In general, Toyota with its widest model range occupies 30% of the home market. And for cars foreign brands account for only 5.8% of demand: 306,000 cars last year (4% more than a year earlier), and mostly "Germans". Mercedes is the leader among brands (68,000 cars), which is the only one among the "strangers" that has made its way into the top ten of the brand rating. And the most popular import model- Volkswagen Golf: 23 thousand cars per year.

Toyota vs BMW, Audi vs Mazda, Mercedes-Benz vs Infiniti. And this list can be continued for a long time. It so happened that motorists around the world are constantly comparing german cars that were once considered, with Japanese cars, which also from the very beginning have proven themselves to be ultra-reliable and "non-fragile" vehicles.
No wonder why there are always fierce battles in disputes between fans of Japanese and German cars, where each camp tries to prove to each other which cars are still better. And, probably, this dispute cannot be resolved, since the question of which car is better is pure water a philosophy that does not have an engineering and technical explanation. However, today we will try to do it. True, turning the question a little differently. So let's go.
To this day, the fact remains: . This is recognized even by true fans of the German car industry. And it does not matter what brand of cars we are comparing. Really, japanese cars mobiles are more enduring compared to German ones. But here's the question: why?
Have the Germans forgotten how to make reliable cars? Of course not. This becomes clear when it comes to the incredible engineering technologies that appear on every new German car today. Moreover, as it was originally, at the dawn of the automotive industry, most German companies open up new technologies to the world, forcing the entire automotive industry to move into the future. But why then Japanese auto industry more reliable and durable?
We contacted a German engineer involved in research and development work (R&D) with a team of distinguished scientists, engineers and designers, asking him why, at a time when the German automotive industry automotive technology ahead of the rest, cars from Germany are less hardy than Japanese cars.
Due to the fact that our interlocutor is part of a large group of specialists from different countries world (including from Germany), we got the opportunity to understand how German engineers think when creating a product (in particular, a car), and also get an unexpected answer to the question why German cars are less reliable than Japanese ones. Here is what he told us:
I have had the pleasure of working with several Japanese, Italian, Taiwanese, Chinese and Russian scientists and engineers. Naturally, before that my experience was also associated with working with German engineers and scientists in Germany. Therefore, having worked in the framework of R&D, I can now compare how German engineers and scientists differ from specialists from other countries. Let's focus on what interests you: German and Japanese engineers.
German and Japanese engineers have one common feature: they invent and know how to bring to life high-quality details from seemingly terrible materials. In general, if you need to make candy out of shit, all questions are for Japanese and German engineers. They really, from a scientific point of view, will approach the problem and figure out how to make a masterpiece out of the impossible. Moreover, their approach is the same to every even small detail, whether it is a screw, a clip, etc.
Unfortunately, such a general approach of the Germans and Japanese to design and development does not give an understanding of why, in fact, most Japanese cars more reliable than German in the real world. After all, if engineers from two countries have the same approach to development and their implementation, why then from the assembly line of Japanese automotive companies Are more reliable cars coming out? Do the Germans end up working worse?
No. In fact, the problem is more fundamental. Let me explain.
Germans love rules. They follow these rules. Therefore, when developing cars, German engineers initially take into account this feature of the German people, who love and know how to obey any rules. As a result, when the future German car is being developed and constructed, its technologies have already taken into account that those who will drive them will unquestioningly abide by the RULES developed by the automaker!
When Japanese engineers design cars, the design philosophy is very different from the German engineering approach. So, when Japanese engineers develop a product, they ask themselves: “How will customers use it? How can I prevent it from crashing if they abuse it?".
And here is what a German engineer thinks when he invents, develops and creates a product (not necessarily a car): “I made this car, and it must be used in a certain way, strictly according to the developed rules. If a customer abuses them and he fails (the product fails), it's his fault, not mine.".
And so it is. This is the real difference between German engineering and Japanese engineering. You look at most of the German products, which everyone must use exactly according to the conditions worked out by the manufacturer, for which this or that product is intended. And then, probably, this product will serve you as long as possible. If the consumer exceeds the usage limits set by the manufacturer, then you can expect the German product to fail in a short time.
Many Japanese products(including cars) operate well even outside the specifications and established conditions of use.
For example, there are many examples in the auto world when in some Toyota, in which a planned Maintenance, the driver was faced with the super-endurance of the car, which surprised with its reliability. For comparison: if you do not carry out scheduled maintenance on time for a German car, it will quickly fail, unlike Japanese cars that can withstand even a rare replacement. engine oil in the engine.
Yes, you can, of course, argue for a long time, citing thousands more arguments both in favor of Japanese engineers and defending the German auto industry and those who serve for its benefit. There is no consensus. Someone thinks that it is impossible to make German cars super high-quality and reliable, because they are technologically complex (the level of complexity of some German cars is comparable to early space rockets).
Someone thinks that the Germans in last years snickered and deliberately spoiled their auto industry, reducing the potential life of a car in order to sell as much as possible more cars. Someone is convinced that the Japanese managed to establish the production of the most reliable and quality cars in the world thanks to a change in the policy of standardization and quality back in the 60s and 70s under the leadership of American scientists.
As a result, Japan made great efforts after World War II to improve its manufacturing capabilities and technology. Thanks to the efforts of thousands of engineers, the Japanese have learned to create some of the most reliable products in the world, as a result, Japanese products have begun to be praised all over the world for their reference reliability. AND main reason This, according to many experts, is in rethinking the entire policy of quality standardization in the entire industry of the Land of the Rising Sun.
Germany, on the other hand, has been well known for its technology since World War II. Yes, there have always been good engineers in Germany. But the quality standardization left much to be desired. There were also problems in Germany with the organization of competent production.
The Germans during the war, by the way, did not have a system of interchangeable spare parts for military equipment. For example, the well-known Panther tank was equipped with caterpillars, which, in case of damage, could be replaced with new ones, created only at the plant where the tank was produced. Russian and American tanks were easily repaired thanks to the standardization of parts. That is why Russian tanks were more effective in single combat.
But subsequently the Germans also came to standardization throughout the industry. This also applies to the automotive industry. Without it today in today's highly competitive world in any way. . And the higher and more successful this standardization, the more successful company On the market. In general, the standardization of German industry began in the mid-70s. Until that time, quality programs did not really excite Germany. As a result, standardization programs for production and quality programs appeared in Germany much later than in the USA and Japan.
Companies such as Ford and Toyota are now the benchmark for standardization in the automotive industry, and have been able to create a truly unique quality standard for their products without sacrificing their cost. That is why these companies today collect all the cream from the car market. Especially Toyota, which sells the most cars in the world.
The Germans, on the other hand, because of a different policy, went a slightly different way, focusing on the production of premium sophisticated cars, taking the production of cars with amazing technologies as a standard. Unfortunately, we know what harder car by design, the less reliable it is. As a result, German cars break down more often than Japanese ones.
But again, we return to the fact that German cars are better and more reliable if you follow them and follow all the rules prescribed by the automaker. Japanese cars are simpler, have less technology, and are also much cheaper. German cars. Also, Japanese cars are more enduring, because initially engineers lay in the Japanese auto industry scenarios when car owners begin to deviate from the rules prescribed by the manufacturer.
