Car brands with the least chance of engine breakdown (not Toyota)

  • Jul 30, 2021

Every motorist is interested in owning a car with a high-quality and reliable power unit that can serve faithfully for more than one year. Someone will say that in our time, all engines are equally bad. However, in reality this is not the case. The quality of the power units jumps quite strongly not only from brand to brand, but also from model to model.

Hardly any of the domestic motorists will be surprised by the fact that at the end of the year, the top three in terms of engine quality were taken by car companies from Japan and Germany. This is because it was the production of these countries that traditionally hold the palm in this and not only this area. Nevertheless, for many it will be surprising that the first place at the end of 2020 was not taken by Toyota at all. Traditionally, engine reliability ratings are compiled on the basis of an analysis of the frequency of operation on the dashboard of the "Check Engine" pentagram. In total, experts analyzed 19.5 million cars that were produced between 1996 and 2020.
