What is the most reliable car?

As of 2014, Toyota and Lexus brand cars are the most reliable, according to Consumer Reports. Other reliable brands include Scion, Honda, Subaru, Volkswagen and Mazda.

Toyota tends not to release new technology in its cars until it has worked out all the problems, resulting in cars that rank high on reliability; the same is true for Toyota's luxury division, Lexus. Even given its new hybrid technology, the Lexus CT200h ranks very high for dependability in comparison to other hybrids. Other specific models with high reliability rankings are the Scion xB, the Honda Civic, the Toyota Prius c, the Subaru Forester and the Volkswagen Passat 1.8T.
