Cars – Reliability tests

The reliability of the car is often a decisive factor when choosing a car, especially a used one, because when buying used cars, we cannot use the warranty service.

Which then cars, brand, models deserve to be called reliable? Which cars worth buying considering car reliability, and which cars we should avoid especially, when we buy used car?

Reliability tests are carried out annually by various automotive magazines. As it turns out, the results of such tests are very similar every year.

The most reliable used cars they are still japanese cars. The top five are, of course, the Toyota Corolla, Toyota Avensis, Toyota Yaris, Honda Civic and Mazda 6. When buying such a car is a risk, that we will often go to the site with him is negligible. It is the absolute top class among used cars in terms of reliability.

The Kia Ceed is just behind the top five, Volvo V40, Skoda Octavia and Seat Leon. The difference in points between all of the top ten is minimal, so buying any used car from the top ten we acquire practically reliable car.

Thus, Toyota plays the first fiddle, proving its quality in all segments of its cars, which can be seen in the ranking - three places in the top ten taken by its flagship models of representatives of each segment, from city cars, from the compact to the limousine.

Another Asian concern is an interesting fact, Kia rising star, which by providing a guarantee 5 years on mechanics and 7 years on the drive system with the engine provoked the suggestion that this is just a marketing gimmick. Based on the results of the car reliability test Kia Ceed proves, that the longest warranty on the market is not a coincidence, but confirmation of high quality.

Tests, unfortunately, confirm a fairly high failure rate of French cars.
