Japanese God. Which cars turned out to be the most reliable

Japan's auto industry has gone uphill at a fast pace not so long ago, but in a short period of time, this country has achieved phenomenal results in the sales market. Today, reliable Japanese cars are highly valued all over the world, but Russian motorists have a special love for them. This is not an accident. Cars made in the "Land of the Rising Sun" have been plowing our troubled roads for decades, and it is worth noting that they cope with potholes and pits one hundred percent.

Other advantages of these cars include such important factors as unpretentiousness to the quality of gasoline, resistance to any weather conditions, inexpensive service. What else does a real car enthusiast need to be happy? We offer to evaluate the rating of Japanese cars by brand.

At one time the founder Toyota decided to change his line of business, and instead of looms, he decided to produce cars. Today the company occupies a leading position in sales of its cars worldwide. Russia is no exception, which is actively cooperating with its eastern neighbor. In different regions of our country, different indicators of the percentage of car purchases Toyota brands, but, for example, in Primorye, a car from Toyota takes about 90% of the total number of purchased cars.

Why the products of this company are so valued, and this, first of all:

• Simple but effective design;
• Affordable price for a complete set;
• High reliability;
• Unpretentiousness and stable work on our roads.

The best Japanese cars from this company are sold out at the speed of light. Luxury models such as Lexus have long established themselves as prestigious and most reliable Japanese cars. But there are other products that are also highly valued: Corolla, Camry, Land cruiser.

Honda

In our Honda country very popular brand, since cars from this company are attractive in appearance, aggressive in their technical characteristics, and they are also classified as the most reliable Japanese cars along with Toyota. But, if it is an Accord, or it is a sports car, then such transport should be treated with caution: gasoline of acceptable quality, high quality oil, driving on a flat road.

If you follow these rules, then the “iron friend” from Honda brands it will last not a single year, while it will not take the owner by surprise, will not let you down at the most crucial moment, and in general, it will give only one pleasure.

Best Japanese stamps cars are famous for their build quality, metal quality. Products from Nissan strictly adheres to the standards that allow Nissan to compete with Toyota. Excellent transmission, high-torque engine, but the suspension from Japanese manufacturers is rather weak for our roads.

The articulated joints wear out quickly, and the suspension becomes unusable due to Low quality pavement coverings. Otherwise, vehicles from Nissan, if not perfect, then practically they are.

The rating of Japanese cars would be incomplete without this brand. Majority Vehicle from Subaru are great for, because these cars are different high quality engine assembly, which is protected from below by metal pallets, and on our roads it is especially important.

But many are afraid to start such a car in their garage, because Subaru equips its cars with a boxer type of engine, which, in case of failure, will bring headache Russian owner auto. After all, in Russia boxer engines- a real rarity, therefore, their service translates into a round pretty penny.

Mazda

The Japanese car brands Mazda 2 and Mazda 3 made a lot of noise at the time. These machines can rightly be considered as legendary cars With rotary engine. In our country, at the sight of a rotor, maintenance specialists have problems, since they rarely have to deal with this type of engine.

This often discourages Russian motorists from buying Mazda. In addition, it is worth noting that the suspension, like that of Nissan cars, is weak in Mazda, and quickly fails on our roads. But in general, products from Mazda on high level, and if you drive around the city, and if outside the city, then on a flat road, then there will be no problems with the car at all.

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 mobiles 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. Indeed, Japanese cars 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 auto industry is ahead of the rest in automotive technology, cars from Germany are less durable 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 general approach Germans and Japanese to design and development does not give an understanding of why, in fact, most Japanese cars are more reliable than German ones 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 manufacturer's usage limits, then you can expect german product will 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 scheduled maintenance was not carried out for a long time, the driver was faced with the super-endurance of a car that 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, which can withstand even a rare change of 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.

But, despite the foregoing, it cannot be unequivocally said that German cars are less reliable. Just German and initially have a different foundation during development. As a result, these cars are different in spirit. So, it is incorrect to compare their quality, reliability.

If we discard all these difficulties aside, then, of course, Japanese cars last longer. Especially if their owners do not particularly monitor the machines. German cars are more capricious and require due care from their owners.

Drivers who have had the opportunity to drive different brands of cars will agree with the statement that perfect cars does not exist. From malfunctions during the operation of the vehicle, neither the reliability of Japanese cars, nor the impeccability DM nor the recognized safety of the Volvo brand. The realities of the roads in this regard do not spare anyone.

Volvo cars are rightfully considered one of the strongest and safest.

However, it is worth noting that in the world tops, the leading places are often occupied by Japanese cars. They are far ahead of their rivals in terms of durability and reliability. Among the most popular and sought-after manufacturers are:

• Toyota - among the advantages are quite high reliability indicators, simplicity of design, availability of spare parts for reasonable prices and ease of maintenance. Cars of this brand are able to overcome almost all extreme conditions: heat, thunderstorms, frost. Such cars are very popular and recognizable.

• Nissan - quite a bit in quality from Toyota cars lagging behind. And this is just because of one drawback. The suspension of vehicles of this brand is unsuitable for driving on the road with poor coverage. It is more suitable for driving on city streets with good roads. For Russian outbacks and off-road such equipment will not work. But in terms of the quality of the engine, body parts, transmission and other components, there are no complaints.

• Mitsubishi - equipment from this manufacturer has an excellent level of reliability and electronic stuffing modern level. However, there is also weak spots: often the welded places of the body are made somewhat carelessly and the body itself is not well treated with an anti-corrosion compound.

• Subaru - cars are distinguished by good handling, stability and excellent dynamics. They just perfectly behave on winter Russian tracks. There are difficulties with the availability of spare parts, and Subaru cars require high-quality gasoline.

• Honda - cars of this manufacturer attract consumers with their power, reliability and stability. They will be able to serve their owners for a very long time, provided quality fuel And good oil. The stylish design and comfortable interior of this brand are just perfect.

• Mazda - the model range is very wide and includes roadsters, SUVs, pickups, minivans and cars of small and medium classes. Just like cars brands Nissan, Mazda cars have a somewhat unfinished suspension and for driving on a bad pavement she doesn't fit.

It is the models of real brands that most often lead the rating of Japanese cars.

Summarizing the quality of Japanese production

To date Japanese manufacturers cars produce reliable and high-quality vehicles. They have already earned a huge technical base and experience.

Let us dwell in more detail on certain positive aspects that distinguish the products of the Japanese automobile industry from manufacturers in other countries:

• Engine. It should be noted that the Japanese have quite quality engines. Cars with are most often delivered to Russia. In this case, the power is compensated by the volume. Under operating conditions in our country, such motors work much longer, although they consume slightly more fuel. The Japanese also have turbocharged engines, but they rarely come to us.
• Transmission. The mechanics in Japanese vehicles are impeccable. Automatic transmissions, combining automatic and CVT, are as practical and reliable as possible. With due maintenance they last a very long time and have no complaints.
• Drive unit. All cars exported from Japan are equipped with front-wheel drive, which is quite practical. Some sedans have all-wheel drive. There are no complaints about the quality of the structures.
• Suspension. The simple and time-tested suspension structure allows it to work for a long time even in our off-road conditions.
• Body and interior. The body design of Japanese vehicles combines beauty and aggressiveness. Inside the cabin, as a rule, everything is done ergonomically.
• Cost and warranty. The Japanese, as it were, give a 5-year warranty on their cars, but everything is rather cunningly twisted. For example, high mileage excludes the suspension warranty and many more such clauses. As for the price, it used to be competitive, but in recent years, when Japanese manufacturers realized that their products are popular and in demand, the cost has increased.

Consumer rating from the American edition of Consumer Reports

It is believed that the Japanese automotive industry still has no analogues in the world. It is the manufacturers from this state that do not get tired of impressing consumers with the wonders of engineering of their products, as well as the design, perfection of technologies and technical characteristics of the models.

The American publication Consumer Reports decided to find out which japanese car better in consumer ratings. In this case, only car reliability indicators were considered.

Honda topped the list.

In second place in popularity was the automaker Subaru. They can also find great crossover, And sports car, and a beautiful sedan.

Mazda is in fourth place. Models of this manufacturer are distinguished by quality and the best ratio of price to reliability.

The Mitsubishi brand is quite a bit short of the championship. However, it is quite highly valued by tuning enthusiasts.

Another popular and reliable brand The contender for the title of "Best Japanese Car" is Nissan. The models of this manufacturer are most often chosen by night riders, speed lovers and professional drifters.

The most popular cars of 2015 in Japan

Every year Japan selects the top 10 most popular cars, which are best sold in the state. The selection included cars model range 2015–2016. Here are the results of the "Best Japanese Car of 2015" ranking:

• The first place went to the Mazda MX-5.

• Quite a bit behind the leader Honda S660. This car gained well-deserved popularity due to its aggressive character and bright appearance.

• But this time he took the third position not at all Japanese brand. According to the voting results, there was a BMW - the 2nd series Active and Grand Tourer.

• Following the top three is the rear-wheel drive Jaguar model XE.

• In fifth place was quite expensive electric car Tesla.

• The next position was taken by Suzuki Alto.

• Thanks to its attractive sporty appearance, the Sienta managed to win the 7th line. It is produced in three versions: a five-seater modification for wheelchair users, a six-seater version and a seven-seater version.

• Hit the top 10 and Fiat 500X. Consumers have embraced this vehicle with enthusiasm for its performance and design.

• At the end of the ranking, but still in the top is the Subaru Legacy / Outback.

• The last position is occupied by a hybrid Nissan X-Trail. The popularity of this SUV is growing all over the world.

Summing up all the above, we can conclude that each separate brand Japanese cars has its own characteristics and advantageous characteristics. The range of models is quite wide and allows everyone to choose for themselves best option. However, when choosing a new Japanese car for yourself, it is important to take into account the conditions in which it is supposed to operate, its weak and strengths. This will allow you to enjoy the comfort and reliability of your vehicle for as long as possible.

Now it's hard to believe, but the history of the Japanese automotive industry began only in the first decade of the 20th century - that is, later than in the countries of the Old World and the USA. Moreover, at its origins was a banal borrowing from the same Europeans and Americans, which continued until the Second World War ...

The first experiments on the creation of cars with engines internal combustion in Japan, they date back to 1905 - it was then that engineer Shineitaro Yoshida presented the first omnibus with a gasoline engine assembled from imported parts ... and two years later, a passenger car, called "Takuri", was revealed to the public. But in this case, as they say, "didn't work" ...

Before the advent of the truly first production car another ten years passed in the Land of the Rising Sun - in 1917, the production of a four-door Mitsubishi sedan Model A, created on the basis of the Italian Fiat models Tipo 3 and equipped with a 35-horsepower engine and rear-wheel drive transmission ...

And in the future, the Japanese automotive industry developed mainly on the licensed production of foreign "iron horses", and most of the plants were controlled by American and European companies.

In the mid-1930s, the Japanese "crushed" all industrial facilities, as a result of which foreign machine builders were forced to curtail work on the territory of this country. Moreover, in connection with the beginning of the militarization of Japan, many enterprises made a bias towards the creation of military equipment, and cars faded into the background (then only very wealthy people could afford them) ...

After the defeat in World War II and the subsequent occupation of the country, the development of the Japanese auto industry was frozen, which lasted until 1949. But at that time, the automotive industry was in a very deplorable state, which is why almost the entire elite of the country (with the exception of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Industry) considered this industry unpromising - as a result, local companies were still engaged in direct copying of American models ...

Another war helped the Japanese overcome such a difficult situation - the Korean War, which broke out in the summer of 1950 - the Americans then "full program" loaded factories in the Land of the Rising Sun with orders for the production of military equipment, which allowed local automakers to "stand firmly on their feet" ...

But a special development boom happened with automotive industry in the 1960s, during the era of the “Japanese economic miracle”, the output of cars, and companies began to actively compete with each other (which was only in the hands of ordinary buyers) ...

The tangible growth of the automotive industry in Japan continued in the 1970s - local automakers not only started exporting their products, but also transferred part of their capacities abroad ... And the mechanical engineering reached its highest peak in 1989 - then a total of about 13 million "iron horses" (of which almost half went abroad).

True, already in the early 1990s, the production of cars in Japan decreased to the levels of 1979, and the industry itself fell into stagnation, which lasted until 2002 and was replaced by another growth ...

At the beginning of the 21st century, automakers from Japan began mass organizing assembly branches in Asia, the USA and Europe, as well as more actively conquering the world's leading markets ...

In the 2010s, the Japanese auto industry rightfully occupies one of the leading positions on the planet - “ iron horses» local machine builders are represented in all existing segments and are distinguished by reliability, progressiveness and high quality. Well, companies from the Land of the Rising Sun annually in total “produce” about 25 million cars.

If you are looking for a passable, practical, safe and relatively inexpensive car, which demonstrates equally first-class performance within the city and beyond, then you should pay attention to the top presented in the article Japanese SUVs. The main factor in the ranking was reliability, but also took into account the frequency of breakdowns, the ability to easily purchase spare parts, the cost current maintenance and endurance needed in our latitudes.

Japan can't "boast" bad roads or harsh climate, so most automotive production focused on overseas sales. Our country is one of the main buyers of products local car industry. Goods going to Russia are characterized by the following distinctive features, which determine such a high popularity:

• The best Japanese crossovers and SUVs, despite their apparent fragility, are well tolerated by our bumps, impassability and impressive distances between settlements;
• These are undemanding machines that are distinguished by low fuel consumption with improved performance of the units under the hood;
• The electronic filling is amazing. For the set price, you will get the most "stuffed" useful systems unit;
• Regardless of the purpose of the purchase, jeeps from the land of the rising sun have enviable comfort.

We present our TOP 10 best Japanese SUVs in terms of price / quality / breakdown probability.

Rating of the best Japanese crossovers
