Самые надежные машины в россии: Рейтинг самых надёжных автомобилей для России 2020 года

Самые надежные и самые провальные модели — рейтинг 2020 года — журнал За рулем

Статистику «ломучести» представил немецкий автомобильный клуб ADAC.

Материалы по теме

Специалисты клуба ADAC утверждают, что приведенные здесь данные могут стать хорошим подспорьем тем, кто собрался приобрести подержанный автомобиль. Однако следует учитывать, что на его состояние, кроме стараний автопроизводителя, влияет также отношение к нему предыдущих владельцев. Причем чем старше автомобиль, чем сильнее эта зависимость.

Согласно исследованию ADAC, есть модели автомобилей, которые ломаются особенно часто, в то время как другие почти не выходят из строя. В статистику 2020 года вошли 3 756 226 поломок, которые произошли в 2019 году и были описаны и проанализированы. В рейтинге участвовало 113 моделей 25 марок, и это немаленький портфель данных, чтобы получить объективную картину надежности моделей. Оказалось, что из 113 представленных моделей лишь 18 могут считаться крайне ненадежными и только 37 — особенно прочными.

В малом классе победила Toyota Aygo — несмотря на то, что автомобиль, разумеется, неидеален, он получил очень хорошие или хорошие результаты за все годы выпуска (с 2010 по 2017 год).

Явным аутсайдером стал Smart Forfour, который претерпел множество поломок, особенно модели 2015 и 2016 годов выпуска. Fiat 500 тоже не очень надежен, особенно машины, зарегистрированные в 2014 или 2015 году. В этих автомобилях ненадежная аккумуляторная батарея и часто выходит из строя рычаг переключения передач. В Smart Forfour бывают проблемы со стартером, хотя аккумуляторы тоже не особо качественные.

В B-классе много надежных машин: Audi A1, Citroen C3, Fiat Punto, Honda Jazz, Mazda CX—3, Mitsubishi Space Star, Peugeot 2008, Renault Captur, Suzuki Vitara и Toyota Yaris.

Tревожно высокие показатели ненадежности демонстрируют Hyundai i20, особенно выпущенные с 2011 по 2014 годы, и Opel Meriva 2017 года. Проблема с Hyundai i20 часто возникает из-за свечей или замка зажигания. В Opel Meriva неисправности связаны с системой охлаждения: здесь в качестве причины неоднократно упоминаются негерметичные шланги и неисправные водяные насосы.

По нижней границе среднего класса лидируют Audi A3 и Q3, BMW 1-й и 2-й серий и BMW X1, Mercedes-Benz серий A и B, а также серии CLA и GLA, Hyundai Tucson, Mitsubishi ASX, Skoda Rapid и VW Beetle — это вполне надежные машины, готовые прослужить владельцам много лет.

Среди провальных упоминают Nissan Qashqai и Kia Ceed 2011 года. В случае с Qashqai это почти всегда ненадежная батарея — удивительно, почему выявленная проблема до сих пор не решена, а у Kia Ceed целый «букет» вероятных неисправностей, никто не знает, какая именно достанется именно вам.

Топ автомобилей полноценного среднего класса возглавляют Audi A4, A5, Q5 и BMW 3, 4 и X3, Mercedes GLC и Mercedes GLK — они практически не имеют изъянов. А вот пугают своей ненадежностью модели Ford S-Max, Seat Alhambra и VW Sharan. У Ford S-Max часто выходит из строя не только аккумулятор, но и сажевый фильтр, топливный насос или генератор.

По высшей границе среднего класса лидируют Audi A6 и BMW 5-й серии, Mercedes с Vito, Viano и V-Class, которые немного опережают Ford Tourneo, Opel Vivaro, Renault Trafic и VW Transporter.

Из ненадежных в этом классе назван Mercedes—Benz E-Класса 2010–2011 годов выпуска, который может огорчить владельцев множеством поломок. Проблемы встречаются тут со стартером, замком зажигания, аккумулятором, бывают дефекты и в рулевом управлении.

Благодаря новой базе данных ADAC впервые в этом году появилась возможность оценить показатели автомобилей возраста до 20 лет. Однако до этого момента доживают не все модели, поэтому в расчет брали остаток машин на рынке не менее 7000 экземпляров, вот почему эта оценка включала не 113, а только 26 моделей, которые продавались в Германии относительно хорошо за эти годы.

Абсолютным победителем тут стала Toyota Yaris, которая продемонстрировала очень высокую или приемлемую надежность за все годы выпуска. С положительной стороны себя показали также Audi A3 и A4, Mercedes A-Class и BMW 5-й серии. Неплох в этом смысле также Renault Twingo, особенно машины, выпущенные с 2002 по 2013 годы. С 2014 года качество несколько ухудшилось, но слабые места тут вполне предсказуемы — это стартер и аккумулятор.

Рейтинг самых надёжных автомобилей на вторичном рынке

Очень часто люди ищут в Интернете выгодные варианты для покупки подержанных автомобилей. Их покупают чаще, чем автомобили с салона без пробега. Есть несколько объективных причин, объясняющих такой большой спрос на вторичный рынок автомобилей среди наших соотечественников. Но б/у автомобили также имеют некоторые недостатки в виде возможных проблем и дефектов, вызванных естественными процессами старения машины и способствующих появлению множественных неисправностей. Потому опытные автолюбители рекомендуют выбирать среди самых надёжных автомобилей с пробегом. Причём делать это на основе реальных исследований и тестов, позволяющих дать объективную оценку такому параметру, как надёжность.

ТОП самых надёжных автомобилей на вторичном рынке.

Особенности рейтинга

Не так уж легко определить список самых надёжных б/у автомобилей. Но этот никак не останавливает активного роста популярности подержанных машин. Выбор в пользу б/у автомобилей объясняется несколькими основными причинами:

1. Цена. На вторичном рынке стоимость авто заметно ниже, чем на новые машины с салона. За одни и те же деньги можно приобрести совершенно разные автомобили от дилера и среди подержанных вариантов.
2. Ассортимент. Многие справедливо отмечают, что на вторичном рынке выбор намного больше. Потому покупателю есть среди чего выбирать, что отсеивать и находить наиболее приемлемый вариант по тем или иным характеристикам.
3. Комплектация. Один и тот же автомобиль, но с разницей в 1 – 2 года, стоит совершенно разных денег. За определённую сумму можно взять авто с салона в базовой комплектации. Но также предлагаются б/у версии с 1 – 2 годами пробега за аналогичные деньги, но в средней или топовой комплектации.

Важно помнить, что подержанная машина – это всегда определённый риск. Транспортное средство может находиться в числе самых надёжных автомобилей с пробегом, но из-за агрессивного стиля вождения, недобросовестного продавца и прочих нюансов есть вероятность купить авто со скрытыми дефектами и слишком изношенными элементами. Но если вы умеете оценивать состояние, либо же обязательно перед покупкой проводите технический осмотр покупаемой машины, тогда рекомендуем изучить топ из лучших представителей этого сегмента.

Предлагаемый рейтинг, куда попали наиболее надёжные автомобили с пробегом разного возраста, является результатом плодотворной работы немецкого агентства TUV. Эта организация считается самой авторитетной и объективной в Европе. Объясняется это неподкупностью представителей ассоциации технического надзора из Германии, а также объёмом работ, который они выполняют для получения конечного результата.

Они исследуют ежегодно сотни тысяч автомобилей на вторичном рынке. У них есть возможность собирать информацию о проведённых технических осмотрах в Германии. ТО в этой стране является обязательной для всех автовладельцев процедурой. Потому через TUV проходят сотни моделей автомобилей разных производителей, различного года выпуска и состояния.

Сначала они собирают данные, затем обрабатывают информацию, делают выводы относительно:

• характерных поломок машин;
• частоты обращения в автосервис с теми или иными проблемами;
• слабых мест разных автомобилей;
• состояния кузова, проводки и других компонентов, их изменения с течением времени;
• соотношения пробега и частоты возникновения неполадок и пр.

Так получается итоговый список машин, среди которых определяют перечень самых надёжных автомобилей на вторичном рынке, а также топ аутсайдеров. Вся исследовательская информация основывается исключительно на точных статистических данных. Здесь нет никаких субъективных оценок. Всё чётко и прозрачно. Потому TUV считается наиболее объективным и авторитетным оценщиком такого параметра автомобилей как надёжность.

Принцип распределения

У рейтинга нет конкретной привязанности к типу кузова, двигателям или другим характеристикам автомобилей. Потому одновременно в топе присутствуют дизельные и бензиновые машины, а также гибридные версии и прочие представители вторичного рынка. Список преследует цель определить только самые надёжные б/у машины.

Чтобы рейтинг был объективнее и понятнее, его разделили на несколько групп, в зависимости от возраста машины. Это единственный критерий, по которому осуществляется разделение. В перечень исследуемых автомобилей попадают те ТС, возраст которых составляет от 2 до 11 лет. Мы предлагаем посмотреть на 10 самых надёжных автомобилей с пробегом, где каждый топ представлен в определённой возрастной группе:

• 2 – 3 года;
• 4 – 5 лет;
• 6 – 7 лет;
• 8 – 9 лет;
• 10 – 11 лет.

Это позволит вам понять, что лучше выбрать среди двухгодичных машин, а также насколько потенциально поменяется уровень их надёжности через несколько лет. Сразу сделаем акцент на том, чтобы вы следили, как меняют свои позиции европейские и японские надёжные автомобили среди б/у вариантов. Это довольно интересная тенденция, открывающая некоторые важные нюансы для тех, кто рассчитывает купить хороший автомобиль минимум на 5 – 6 лет эксплуатации.

Группа 2 – 3 лет

В каждой категории TUV предоставляет широкий список машин, бывших в употреблении и показавших наиболее высокие оценки по параметрам надёжности. Здесь будет представлен только топ 10. В возрасте до 3 лет самые надёжные б/у автомобили выглядят так:

1. Лидером оказался автомобиль 911 от компании Porsche. Его процент поломок составляет всего 2,1%. 
2. Вторую строчку заняла модель GLK от Mercedes с теми же 2,1% процента. Но по дополнительным показателям в лидеры вышел именно Porsche.
3. На третьем месте опять Mercedes, но уже B-Class. Достаточно неожиданно для многих, поскольку вера в надёжность производителя в последние годы падает. 
4. Четвёртое место снова за Mercedes. На эту позицию вышел A-Class с процентом поломок 2,3%. 
5. Пятое место за Mercedes SLK.
6. Шестую строчку уверенно занимает последний в этом списке представитель немецкого автоконцерна Mercedes M-Class.
7. Наконец-то не немецкий автомобиль на 6 месте. Это Mazda 2 из Японии. 
8. Восьмую строчку заняла модель Adam производства компании Opel. У неё процент поломок составил 2,6%. 
9. Предпоследнее девятое место тоже за Opel. На этот раз таких высоких позиций удостоился кроссовер Mokka. 
10. Замкнул десятку лидеров опять немецкий кроссовер, но теперь уже Audi Q5. Его процент поломок составил 2,7%. 

Достаточно интересные результаты, но оспаривать или сомневаться в их справедливости не приходится. Пока что японские надёжные машины не входят в число лидеров. А это хоть и удивительно, но закономерно. Посмотрим, как ситуация будет меняться дальше.

Группа 4 – 5 лет

Тут процент поломок начинает заметно увеличиваться. Всё же 4 – 5 лет эксплуатации дают о себе знать. Рейтинг надёжности несколько видоизменился, сюда вошли новые машины, а также остались некоторые лидеры из предыдущего топа. Несколько увеличили своё присутствие японские автомобили, но немцы продолжают уверенно доминировать в первой десятке. По крайней мере, количеством. Предлагаем изучить список машин по показателям надёжности среди 5-летних авто и определить, какую модель лучше покупать.

1. Лидером стала модель SLK от Mercedes, оказавшаяся единственной, порог процента поломок которой не перешагнул отметку в 3,0%, остановившись на 2,9%.
2. Второе место за вдруг появившейся Audi A6. Но процент поломок сразу поднялся до 4,2%. 
3. Третье место с показателем 4,4% тоже за Audi. Бронза досталась спортивному купе Audi TT.
4. «Деревянная» награда у лидера предыдущего рейтинга Porsche 911, который опустился из-за увеличенного до 4,8% процента поломок.
5. Новичком рейтинга и сразу на 6 месте стал японский кроссовер ASX, у которого процент неисправностей по оценкам TUV составил 5% ровно. 
6. Компактный Audi A1 оставил за собой седьмое место в рейтинге надёжности. 
7. Ещё одним японским представителем стала Mazda 3. Эти подержанные автомобили имеют 5,6% поломок. Идентичный процент получили ещё несколько моделей, которые и замкнули рейтинг.
8. BMW X1. 
9. Mercedes GLK. 
10. Hyundai ix20.

Под конец даже один корейский автомобиль оказался в числе лучших, набрав только 5,6%. Для сравнения, аутсайдер среди тридцатки лучших в лице японского кроссовера Honda CR-V получил от TUV оценку 7,3%. Показатель неплохой, но среди топ 10 есть объективно хорошие подержанные автомобили, которые стоит приобрести.

Группа 6 – 7 лет

Десятка лидеров опять существенно поменялась. Интересно, что победитель первой группы, а также занявший 4 место в предыдущем топе Porsche 911 снова поднялся вверх. На этот раз он обосновался на 2 позиции. Поменялся и лидер. В прошлом рейтинге среди машин 4 – 5 лет Mazda 3 была только 8. Теперь автомобиль возглавляет топ среди подержанных машин 6 – 7 лет. Процент поломок составляет от 6,8 до 10,1%. Общая картина выглядит следующим образом, начиная с 1 по 10 место:

Изменения кардинальные по многим позициям. Некоторые автомобили даже в число лучших 30 не входили, а затем резко оказались на лидирующих местах.

Группа 8 – 9 лет

В предыдущих группах автомобиль Porsche 911 утратил свои позиции, начал постепенно возвращаться наверх, и тут снова оказался безоговорочным лидером с показателем 9,9%. Ближайший конкурент, которым оказалась Audi TT, продемонстрировал 11,5% поломок. В итоге группа лидеров выглядит так:

Занявший 10 место в топе Mini имеет процент поломок 14,9%. Ранее выше 23 строчки не поднимался. Здесь уже серьёзно прослеживается определённая доминация японских автомобилей. В тридцатке оказались представители Toyota, Honda, Mitsubishi и Suzuki.

Группа 10 – 11 лет

В этой группе автопроизводители способны наглядно показать, что их машины действительно надёжные. Многие лидеры предыдущих рейтингов не сильно изменили свои позиции или хотя бы не покинули лидирующую тридцатку. Есть и неожиданные новички, которые в предыдущих группах не приближались к десятке. Подержанные автомобили сроком службы от 10 до 11 лет распределили места в топ 10 по показателям надёжности в следующей последовательности от 1 до 10 места:

• Porsche 911;
• Toyota Corolla;

90000 Russian Car Brands Names — List And Logos Of Russian Cars 90001 90002 Although Russian car brands are nothing compared to German or American ones, they still represent an important player in the global auto industry. Their importance was immense during the communist era, in which cars were exported to all countries of the Soviet bloc. If, for the moment, their notoriety and geographic coverage is reduced, this is not to mean that Russian cars are not still worthy of mention. In 2010 Russia was the world’s 15th greatest car manufacturer.90003 90004 List & Logos Of All Russian Car Brands 90005 90002 These are all the auto manufacturers that originated in Russia. 90003 90008 Most Popular Russian Car Companies 90009 90002 We think it is important to pin down the main Russian car brands that have made the postcards and the TV shows of 3-4 decades ago. Some of these are still widely used. 90003 90012 Lada 90013 90002 Lada Logo 90003 90016 90017 90018 Years: 90019 1966 — Present 90020 90017 90018 Headquarters: 90019 Togliatti, Samara Oblast 90020 90017 90018 Founder / Parent Company: 90019 JSC AvtoVAZ 90020 90017 90018 Website: 90019 http: // www.lada.ru/ 90020 90033 90002 One of the automotive players that are still manufacturing vehicles, Lada used to be a car giant exporting products to all parts of the world, including Western Europe. One of the brands that have embraced western design ever since its beginnings, Lada boasts on a prestige that not many other European car brands own. It’s a true fact: Ladas are no Mercedes, BMW or even Fiat. But their main quality does not reside in exquisite design or impressive performance. Lada is a car that simply gets you from one place to another, by offering basic comfort and maneuverability.90003 90002 Not many car manufacturers worldwide can claim that they continue to sell their vehicles in the same formats they were released, 40 years priorly. 90018 AvtoVAZ 90019 is one of them, with over 20 million approximately identical cars sold until 2012 (the year in which production ceased). 90003 90002 The most common model, the 2105 Classic, was based on the тисячу дев’ятсот шістьдесят шість Fiat 124 sedan and was most appreciated for its affordable price, its reliability, and the unpretentious mechanics (let’s face it: if you’ve grown in a communist country, you must have seen at least one male Lada owner lying underneath their car, fixing it).90003 90002 Part of the Fiat group from the very beginning, Lada is now a member of the Renault — Nissan alliance. Newer models (Kalina, Priora, and Granta) are being manufactured at the moment and are becoming more and more popular among Russian buyers. 90003 90012 Volga 90013 90002 Volga 90003 90016 90017 90018 Years: 90019 1946 — Present 90020 90017 90018 Headquarters: 90019 Nizhny Novgorod, Russia 90020 90017 90018 Founder / Parent Company: 90019 GAZ 90020 90017 90018 Website: 90019 http: // volga21.com / 90020 90033 90002 A product of the alliance between Ford and USSR in 1932 Volga was meant to supply the demand for luxury cars that were little by little emerging in Western Europe. The Volga model was started in тисячі дев’ятсот п’ятьдесят шість and was a successor to the previous GAZ-M20 Poebda. 90003 90002 Although very far from what German or French brands managed to achieve in terms of luxury, the vehicles built by the GAZ — Gorkovsky Avtomobilny Zavod — were a brief reminder of Ford’s defined, sleek design outlines.Being perceived as highly different from the more rudimentary Lada, the Volga became a trademark of wealth, being only purchased by doctors, lawyers, nd political representatives. 90003 90002 Up until today, several series of Volga vehicles were manufactured, the latest ones being used as cabs and police cars. Production stopped in 2007, which makes Volga now one of the desirable vintage car models in the world. President Putin is known to be one of the avid fans of this brand. 90003 90012 Zil 90013 90002 Zil Logo 90003 90016 90017 90018 Years: 90019 1916 — Present 90020 90017 90018 Headquarters: 90019 Moscow, Russia 90020 90017 90018 Founder / Parent Company: 90019 Igor Zakharov 90020 90017 90018 Website: 90019 http: // www.amo-zil.ru/ 90020 90033 90002 Mother Russia had her own luxury limousines. These were not very famous outside of the Soviet Union but, nonetheless, they were notorious for their association with government officials. Many of them were seen being driven in these cars, that massively contrasted to the overall enclosed perception of the Russian regime. 90003 90002 The most famous model of the Zavod Imeni Likhachova was the Zil-115, an armoured vehicle used for transporting dignitaries during their official trips.Joseph Stalin was one of the personalities associated with this particular Russian car brand. 90003 90002 The manufacturer, now entitled Amo-Zil, is currently producing buses, trucks and tractors. 90003 90012 Moskvich 90013 90002 Moskvich Logo 90003 90016 90017 90018 Years: 90019 1930 — Present 90020 90017 90018 Headquarters: 90019 Moscow, Russia 90020 90017 90018 Founder / Parent Company: 90019 AZLK 90020 90017 90018 Website: 90019 http://www.azlk.ru/ 90020 90033 90002 Another one of the popular Russian models, the Moskvich is characteristic of the traditional Russian spirit.A rather dull vehicle, its several models (including the 408, 412 and the newer 2142) knew reconnaissance and appreciation nation-wide. With some people claiming that this is the Russian car by definition, and not the Lada, Moskvich is definitely worth of a closer look. 90003 90002 The history of this particular car brand is far from ordinary. Production was initiated in 1949 with 24000 vehicles, to be further on ceased in favour of military vehicle manufacturing, during the Second World War.Immediately after the war, Russia acquired an entire production line from Opel, in Brandenburg. This is actually when the first Moskvich model was born — the 400 — based on the German Opel Kadett. 90003 90002 The brand knew glorious days in the seventies and in the eighties, as the Soviet Union was strengthening its economy, only to reach bankruptcy in 2002 and dissolution in 2006. Some of the production plants were acquired by Renault in 2008, which meant that some of the Renault models (the Logan) were being assembled there.Since 2009 the brand is owned by giant car brand Volkswagen. 90003 90008 Other Active Russian Auto Manufacturers 90009 90012 GAZ 90013 90002 GAZ 90003 90016 90017 90018 Years: 90019 1932 — Present 90020 90017 90018 Headquarters: 90019 Nizhny Novgorod, Russia 90020 90017 90018 Founder / Parent Company: 90019 GAZ Group 90020 90017 90018 Website: 90019 http://azgaz.ru/ 90020 90033 90002 Gorkovsky Avtomobilny Zavod, abbreviated as GAZ, is a Russian automobile company founded in тисячі дев’ятсот тридцять дві.The company was first named ‘Nizhny Novgorod’, but then after a year was named to Gorky and then finally GAZ.

It was privatized in 1991 and adopted the name Moskvitch, as many cars manufactured already had been using the name. 90003 90002 AZLK was told to cease production of cars in 2001, but the company still did not give up and went on producing vehicles. However, within nine years, the company lost all its process equipment and documentation, thus coming to an end in 2010 року.90003 90012 Avtokam 90013 90002 Avtokam 90003 90016 90017 90018 Years: 90019 1989 — 1997 90020 90017 90018 Headquarters: 90019 Naberezhnye Chelny, Russia 90020 90017 90018 Founder / Parent Company: 90019 Grigory Rysin 90020 90017 90018 Website: 90019 Not Available 90020 90033 90002 Avtokam, also popularly known as ‘Autokam’, was a Russian Automobile Manufacturer that was headquartered in Naberezhnye Chelny, Russia.

Marussia Motors was led by the former formula racer Nikolai Fomenko and won many races throughout its life. 90003 90002 The first Russian sports car was manufactured by Marussia Motors. However, in April 2014 the company was disbanded and many employees left to join other companies. The company soon faced bankruptcy and filed several notices of financial difficulties, but was unable to recover hence coming to an end. 90003 90002 We tried to cover the names of all the top Russian car brands in our list, and hope you enjoyed all the logos and pics.You might be interested in checking out, list of all auto manufacturers worldwide 90003 .90000 Traveling to & from Russia by car, motorcycle or hitchhiking 90001 90002 Driving by car in Russia is a great option as you’ll save on travel costs and will be able to see the country. The petrol prices are low (€ 0.70 per liter) and the whole trip from Berlin to Moscow takes about 26 hours with the stops and border controls. The roads are very good, especially if you drive along the federal highways or through Minsk in Belarus. The infrastructure along all the routes to Russia is pretty well developed: there’s a lot of decent hotels and motels along the way (which you can pre-book online or get a room on the spot), every 15-20 km there is a petrol station opened 24 hours, lots of repair workshops and places to eat as well.The border-crossing part is the most difficult one, however, if you know a few lifehacks, you will manage to save time and money, and that’s what this article is going to help you with. 90003 90002 90003 90006 90002 90003 90002 If you happen to be traveling from one of the Baltic states, Germany, Finland or Sweden, then driving your own car to Russia may be a good option. There are many tourists traveling by car from these countries, as well as a steady flow of second-hand cars imported to Russia from Germany.All this means that the customs regulations are quite straightforward and the infrastructure on the road is good. However, this also means longer queues at some border crossing points. 90003 90002 90003 In case you do not want to deal with the border-crossing hassle, you can also rent a car in Russia — the price is about € 20 per day, which you’ll probably save comparing to how much it’s going to cost you to get your own car into and out of Russia (petrol + insurance: eg 4000km from Berlin to Moscow and back ~ 350 liters x € 1.5 ~ € 525 vs € 200 for a return flight). 90002 90003 90015 90002 90003 90018 Driving to / from Russia through Belarus by Car 90019 90002 If you do not mind getting a Belarus transit visa, we would recommend to take 90021 the fastest route to Moscow through Belarus 90022 that goes along the E30 motorway through 90021 Warsaw and Biylastok 90022 (in Poland) into 90021 Minsk 90022 (Belarus) and into 90021 Moscow 90022. That route is about 1800 km and can be driven comfortably in about 24 hours (with 30-minute stops every 2 hours).90003 90002 90003 90002 The main advantage here is not only the speed, but also the border infrastructure. For instance, if you drive through Latvia to Moscow there is only one border crossing point and it might get busy, there is no reliable live queue information, and no electronic queue booking system. When you are crossing through Belarus you get a very civilised border experience and can plan your trip very well not to get stuck in queues, especially if you are driving back from Russia to Europe.So consider investing into Belarus transit visa as it will save you time and Belarus is nice to see. 90003 90002 90003 90002 The roads are very good quality also and the highways in Belarus are better than anywhere in Europe and they are empty too, so it’s a great drive. The disadvantage is that you’d have to get a transit visa to Belarus. 90003 90002 90003 90002 90003 90042 Best Border Crossing between Poland and Belarus into Russia 90043 90002 If you decide to drive this way, you would need to choose which border crossing to use.The most popular (and the busiest one) is 90021 Terespol (Poland) — Brest (Belarus) 90022 as it is along the main motorway. It takes about an hour longer than the shortest route, but it has the electronic queue system on the Belarus side, which means you can book your spot before and know how much time you’re going to spend at the border precisely (no long queue surprises). This does not work on the Polish side (no electronic queue system), so If you arrive to Terespol on the side of Poland and the queue is too long, in about half hour (40 km) you can get to 90021 Sławatycze 90022 where you can cross to Belarus through 90021 Domachevo 90022, which is usually less busy as it’s a smaller road.90003 90002 90003 If you are driving 90021 from Belarus to Poland through Brest checkpoint 90022 you can use the 90021 electronic queue system 90022 and book the exact time of your passing through Brest. You can book your spot not later than 3 hours before the passing, so when you are driving through Minsk, stop there for a meal and simply book your spot in the queue. So when you arrive (which takes about 3 — 3.5 hours) you will be sure to wait not more than an hour. Note, that you should enter the waiting area at least 1 hour before your intended crossing and if you’re late you can not use your queue.The 90021 electronic queue 90022 costs about € 10 and can be 90021 booked online on https://belarusborder.by/. 90022 The good thing is that if you’re late you can always drive down to Dolmachevo (30 minutes) and cross there if the queue in Brest is too long. 90002 90003 90002 We recommend, however, to take one of the two smaller border crossing points: 90021 Bobrowniki (Poland) — Berestovica (Belarus) 90022 or 90021 Kuźnica (Poland) — Bruzgi (Belarus). 90022 The first one, Bobrowniki — Berestovica is the shortest path and it goes along a smaller road, so it may be less busy than others.The second one, 90021 Kuznica — Bruzgi 90022 goes along a bigger road but can get a bit busier than the first and it takes about 30 minutes longer. 90003 90002 90003 90002 Also, beware that sometimes the queues can b 90021 e quite long. So the best time to cross Polish-Belarus border is when there is the least local traffic. That means either between 14.00 and 17.00 or after 0.00 90022 in both directions. Usually locals go shopping in both directions and in the morning / evening there’s also people going for work.So 90021 the busiest times 90022 are from 8.00 to about 15.00 and from 18.00 to about 23.00. 90003 90002 90003 90002 There are sometimes people offering their «services» to get you pass the other cars in the queues for about € 30- € 50. This may work, but you’ll probably save only about half hour, so it is no really worth it and may also be risky. 90003 90002 90003 90002 In any case, please, 90021 use the websites of the both border controls 90022 to check the current queues. The Belarus one is much more convenient and mobile-friendly, but the Polish one also has some info, so you can choose the border crossing point that is least busy.90003 90002 90003 90002 90003 90002 90003 90002 90003 90042 Best Stopovers and Hotels Along the Poland — Belarus — Russia Highway 90043 90002 Our favorite route is the following (you can use it in both directions): 90003 90002 90021 Berlin — (6 hours) — Warsaw — (7-8 hours) Minsk — (4 hours) — Smolensk — (6 hours) — Moscow 90022 90003 90002 90003 90002 You can stay overnight in Warsaw and Smolensk and make a stop to eat in 90021 Minsk 90022 as they have great food there.90003 90002 90003 We also can recommend you a 90021 great hotel near Smolensk 90022, situated in a quiet natural forest area just 20 minutes outside of the center. It’s called 90021 Veranda Hotel 90022 and it has an amazing breakfast included and a great spa, where you can rest after a long drive. The rooms only cost about € 40 for a double, so it’s a great choice. 90002 90003 Near 90021 Warsaw 90022 a good option is 90021 Zloty Lin 90022 hotel, which is also located in a quiet area about 30 minutes off the main road (€ 40 a night), but you might as well want to get something in the center of Warsaw or just along the route.There’s plenty of options on Booking.Com. 90002 90003 90002 In 90021 Berlin 90022 the best area to stay is in Kreuzberg, near Hasenheide or Gorlitzer Park. 90003 90002 90003 90002 90003 90002 90018 Driving to / from Russia through Poland, Lithuania and Latvia 90019 90003 90002 The good thing about this option is that you enter Russia through the border EU border directly, so you do not need any extra transit visas. This would be the 90021 shortest route from Poland to Russia avoiding Belarus 90022 (and thus the transit visa hassle) and you would travel through 90021 Kaunas 90022 (Lithuania), 90021 Rēzekne 90022 (Latvia) entering Russia near Pskov.This is the 90021 shortest route to St. Petersburg 90022 from Western Europe (about 1750 km or 24 hours with 30-minute stops every 2 hours). If you are traveling to 90021 Moscow 90022, this routes takes about 3 hours longer than the route through Belarus, but, again, you do not need any transit visas and the route is quite nice and quiet. 90003 90002 90003 90002 90003 90002 If you are driving to St. Petersburg you would be crossing at 90021 Grebnova (Latvia) — Ubylinka (Russia) 90022.Prepare to wait about 1.5-3 hours at the border. 90003 90002 90003 90002 90003 90018 Driving to / from russia through Finland and Scandinavia 90019 90002 This would perhaps be the most picturesque route as you can drive through the beautiful nordic nature. If you are 90165 traveling from Finland 90166, 90021 Nujimaa / Bruschnishnaya 90022 control point is usually quite fast, while Valimaa / Torfjanak usually has longer queues. The border between Latvia and Russia is usually not too busy, but it depends: sometimes you can get through the border in 20 minutes, sometimes you might have to wait 2 hours.90003 90002 90003 90002 90003 90002 90003 90018 What Types of Petrol Exist in Russia and How Much It Costs? 90019 90002 The 90165 petrol and diesel 90166 is easily available in Russia and there are generally 4 types on sale: 95 ( «devyanosto pyaty» — that’s what you use for most foreign cars — unleaded), 92 ( «devyanosto vtoroi»), 80 or 76 (for old Russian cars), and diesel fuel. The 95 petrol is about $ 0.8 US / € 0.7 per liter, diesel is about $ 0.7 US / € 0.6 per liter, so it is about times less than in Europe and about the same price as in the USA.90003 90002 90003 90002 There might sometimes be problems with the 90021 quality of the fuel 90022, so it’s better to use petrol stations that have some sort of a brand name (BP, TNK, LukOIL, RossNeft are among the best ones). 90003 90002 90003 90042 Traveling to Russia by Car is Cost Effective 90043 90002 If you drive, say, from Berlin to Moscow, the whole trip will take about 1800 km and at 10 L per 100 km you’re looking at 180 liters to spend. If you get most of your petrol (let’s say, for 60% of this journey) in Russia or Belarus at € 0.7 you’d end up paying about € 0.7 x 100 + € 1.4 x 80 = € 70 + € 112 = € 182 for petrol. Add a couple of nights in the hotels along the way (€ 40 x 2 nights for a decent double) and your total will be about € 260 for a one-way trip, which is less than what you’d pay if you took a flight in most cases. 90015 90003 90195 90003 90002 To travel in Russia by car or motorcycle you need: 90003 90002 • Your 90165 personal passport 90166 with valid 90165 Russian visa 90166, original; 90003 90002 90003 • Your 90165 driving licence 90166, original.Usually a plastic card with a photocard is enough (at least for EU, US, Canadian and Australian licenses), but having an 90165 international driving permit 90166 may also be helpful in some cases, if you travel in smaller towns. The international license type you need is DP 1949. In UK you can get it at selected Post Office branches for £ 5 in just 5 minutes or by post through The Automible Association (AA); I have to say that I drive with a UK license plastic card (no international permit and no translation) and it is just fine.90002 90003 90002 • The 90165 registration document on your car 90166 (a document that proves you are the owner of the car with all the information about the owner and registration — called «techpassport» or auto-passport / STS (СТС) in Russian), original ; 90003 90002 90003 90002 • 90165 Third-party insurance 90166 valid in Russia (also called KASKO in Russia and can be purchased at petrol stations just before the border or if you want to save money and time at the local office or affilliate of a Russian insurance company (such as Ingosstrakh, Rosno, etc.), For example, in Latvia it can be bought at most Parex Bank branches). The standard price is about $ 40 for cars and $ 80 for campers and caravans (per every month of validity). 90003 90002 90165 90166 90003 90165 None 90166 90021 of these documents should be translated in Russian 90022 (except for your visa, insurance, and International driving permit that will be in Russian, anyway). Your visa does not need to have the information about your car, but it’s recommended, so when you apply for your Russian visa support, submit your car details as well.90015 90002 Fire 90165 extingiusher 90166 and the 90165 first-aid kit 90166 are mandatory. 90003 90002 90003 90002 The same set of documents is needed when you rent a car in Russia, but the renting company will provide the registration document for the car and the third-party damage insurance, so you’ll only need your driving license and your passport. 90003 90002 90003 90018 90019 If you are traveling to Russia with your own vehicle, 90165 you will get a temporary permit 90166 from the customs to be able to use the car legally in Russia.It is usually given for 10 to 30 days, but you can extend it at local customs offices. In order to 90165 extend your temporary car permit 90166, you should first have your visa registered (see more information on this topic at our Russian Visa section), and then go to one of the 90165 customs offices. 90166 90002 In 90165 Moscow 90166 the customs office where you can 90165 extend your temporary permit 90166 located at BUTOVSKI TAMOZHNIYA PUNKT at KILOMETRE 26 of the WARSHAWSKE SCHOSSE — thats outside the MKAD (Moscow ring road) by around 5 kilometres.Going out from Moscow the office is on the right hand side on the territory of a company called SOVTRANSAVTOEXPEDITIA (or something like that) There is a nice large white sign in Russian at the turning point (Thanks for this information to Dittrich, who posted it on our Talk Lounge forums). 90003 90002 In 90165 St. Petersburg 90166 it’s located at Schosse Revolutsii, # 114 (North-East). 90003 90002 90263 90003 90002 The temporary car permit can be extended for 1 year maximum, but usually it is extended for 3 to 6 months, depending on the type of your visa.It will never be extended for a longer time than your visa registration is valid. 90003 If you need assistance, the company called InterAutoCenter provides car registration services to foreigners in Moscow, they might be able to advise you on the other cities as well. 90002 If you want to do it yourself, here’s the info that Dittrich posted on our forum — according to him, the process have become much easier and is not expensive at all: 90003 90002 90270 «It took me only 1 hour and cost me 410RBL [$ 17 — WTR] for forms, duties and» services «and another 250RBL [$ 10] for photocopies.All in between GBP10 to GBP20. Strictly the duty of RBL100 (€ 1.5) has to be paid at SBERBANK but they do not have one there. If you persist then they might let you go and see someone in one of their offices who will give you a receipt for RBL100 in return for 400RBL cash. This is what we did. 90015 There is no vehicle inspection now but check the form to ensure they get the reg no and VIN no correct. They stuffed mine up. However this was not a problem at the border on the return trip because the number on the paper was the reg document no not the reg no of the vehicle.They took photocopies of the reg document and that was that. 90015 And finally, we got the certificate extending the temporary import AFTER the closing time of 5pm (5.30pm in fact). 90015 So a big thumbs up to Russian Customs on this. In 2005 I spend a whole afternoon at the customs and paid over GBP40. «90015 See 90275 90270 Dittrich’s forum post 90275 90003 90270 on this subject. 90275 90002 90270 90275 90003 90002 90003 90018 Traveling to Russia with a Camping Car 90019 90195 If you decide to travel to Russia with a camping car or a motorhome, you should be aware that there are no special facilities along the way.There are camping sites designed for truck drivers mainly, which have basic facilities (such as toilets, showers, and sometimes water) but they are far from western standard. 90015 However, it’s not impossible to travel to Russia with your own camping car. All you need to do is to stick to the main routes and look out for motel / camping site signs along the way. 90015 In terms of 90165 safety 90166, you will definitely have to look out more for your camper than if you traveled in Europe, so we recommend to leave your car only at secured sites (or at least arrange with somebody to look after your car for a fee — 100R-200R ($ 3- $ 6) per day should be enough).<90003 90195 However, it's not as dangerous as it used to be to travel in Russia with a car anymore. Nowadays criminals found other sources of income and there's lots of police along the way, which creates another problem of frequent police checks. There will be no problems though if your documents are OK.> 90003 90195 The easiest way to travel is to cross from 90165 Finland 90166 or 90165 Estonia 90166 into 90165 St. Petersburg 90166 region, which has a few well-maintained camping sites and visit St.Petersburg and Novgorod (which is an ancient and beautiful Russian town about 250 km drive away). 90003 90195 A 90165 camping 90166 near 90165 St. Petersburg 90166 is Hotel Camping Olgino, which is located 18 km from St. Petersburg on the motorway towards Finland. It received bad reviews from travelers (expensive and the staff is not friendly), but at least it’s something. The address is 18 km Primoskoe Shosse (on E18 route), and they charge about € 10 / night per car and it’s unclear whether there’s a charge per person or not, but it might be that it’s extra € 15 / person / night.Tel: +7 812 633-0205. 90003 90195 If you are traveling to 90165 Moscow 90166, there’s a camping car grounds next to Sergiev Posad and also in Moscow itself: see Sokolniki camping for motorhomes. 90003 90195 The way from Europe to Russia through 90165 Belarus 90166 is also possible. There are a few camping sites along the way (in Brest and near Minsk) run by Intourist, but they are all either hotel car parks or sub-standard sites. 90003 90195 90003 90195 If you decide to undertake a longer journey we recommend you to see the links at the bottom of this page.90003 90195 90003 90018 Russian Traffic Rules 90019 90195 The traffic rules in Russia are pretty similar to the ones in Europe. The speed limit on regional roads in Russia is 90 km / h and on some motorways (e.g. paid Moscow — St. Petersburg or Moscow — Voronezh routes) it can reach up to 130 km / h. The city speed limit is 60 km / h. 90003 90195 Note, that the 90021 city limits are usually shown with a white sign that has black letters. 90022 Sometimes you will not see the speed limit sign, but it’s implied that when you’re driving inside a city, your speed should be 60 km / h, so be careful and look out for those signs, so you know when to reduce your speed.90003 90195 90334 90003 90195 Once you see another sign that crosses the name of the city with a red line, the city is over, you can drive 90 km / h again. 90003 90195 Note, that while the speed limit is pretty low, there’s usually tolerance for about 15 km / h higher. Which means that you probably will not be fined if you drive about 105 km / h instead of 90 km / h outside of a city in Russia. 90003 90195 Another important rule you have to keep in mind is that 90021 when you want to turn left on a road crossing, 90022 you should not drive to the middle of that crossing like you would normally do in Germany or France.You should wait until the arrow of the green traffic light for the direction you want to go turns on and only then drive to that direction. 90003 90195 Finally, watch out for solid lines on the road surface — if you cross those you might lose your driving license, so be careful with your lane discipline. 90003 90195 90003 90018 The Russian Traffic Police (GIBBD) 90019 90002 The traffic police in Russia is called GIBBD (government inspection of road safety) and is notorious for its flexibility.While the traffic rules in Russia are generally the same as in Europe, you can always reach an agreement with a traffic office on the spot in case your infringement is not really serious. The fine for speeding is $ 10 US, if you cross the red lights, you’ll get your driving license taken and will have to go through the court to get them back. The cameras are installed on the major motorways and city avenues and GIBBD inspectors usually like to hide in the most unimaginable places and then jump out of the trees to stop your car and show you what that their radar detected.90003 90002 90003 90002 Also, you should not worry if you get stopped even if you think you did nothing wrong: the check-ups are regular and if your documents are OK, the inspector will take 1 minute and wish you a nice journey. In any case we recommend you to be polite when you speak to the Russian road police. Usually if they see you’re nice and you came to see the country, they’ll be very friendly and leave you alone. I had a case when I drove with an outdated insurance (that was the fault of the car leasing company and I did not check), the inspector stopped me and saw that but after a short conversation where I told him how much I liked his town and what a good time I had, he let me go saying it was not my fault anyway.90003 90195 90003 90018 Car Insurance in Russia 90019 90002 You should have a third-party insurance valid on the whole territory of Russia to be able to enter with your car.

Drivers expect more out of expensive vehicles known for rapid-fire acceleration or high-performance towing. Then there are those who say a vehicle’s not reliable unless it tops 200,000 miles. 90003 90002 For the nonprofit organization Consumer Reports, the most reliable vehicles must pass (or ace) 17 different tests.Even if an automobile runs like a dream, testers will knock it down a few pegs if the electronics system is hard to use or the interior scratches easily. 90003 90002 In other words, getting a top reliability rating from Consumer Reports takes some doing. 90003 90002 To show how well some models have done, we rounded up the top performers since 2010. Here are the 20 most reliable vehicles of the decade, including one that is practically flawless since 2010 90011 (No. 7). 90012 90003 90014 20.Nissan Leaf 90015 90002 The new 2018 Nissan LEAF should continue to be as reliable as its predecessor. | Nissan 90003 90018 90019 90011 Among electric cars, Leaf’s 4 perfect reliability scores in 5 years stand above the pack. 90012 90022 90023 90002 While Tesla has mixed reviews for reliability, Nissan Leaf proved long ago that electric vehicles could stay on the road with the best of them. The first-generation Leaf landed the top Consumer Reports rating for four of its first five years on the market from 2011 to 2016.As the new-for-2018 model makes its way to the market, it also comes with above-average predicted reliability. 90003 90014 19. Toyota Venza 90015 90002 The Toyota Venza is still a popular used car. | Toyota 90003 90018 90019 90011 Remarkably, Venza never posted anything below an excellent reliability rating in 7 years. 90012 90022 90023 90002 Though discontinued in 2015 року, Toyota Venza put up a perfect reliability score in each of its seven years on the U.S. market. Caught stylistically between a wagon and SUV, this vehicle never sold particularly well, but drivers who bought one were blessed with a model that suffered few mechanical issues.Low-mileage models continue to command high prices on the used market. 90003 90014 18. Toyota Sequoia 90015 90002 The Toyota Sequoia does not change much, and buyers like it that way. | Toyota 90003 90018 90019 90011 Since 2012 Sequoia never scored below the top reliability rating. 90012 90022 90023 90002 If you’re looking for a used SUV, Toyota Sequoia has been among the best for dependability since the 2008 model appeared. Every year, Consumer Reports either gave it the top reliability score or close to it, and Sequoia never rated below excellent after 2012.Among vehicles on the road after 2010 few can beat that performance. 90049 90003 90014 17. Honda CR-V 90015 90002 The Honda CR-V is a popular model that people hold onto for years. | Honda 90003 90018 90019 90011 Since 2011, CR-V landed the top score 6 out of 8 times. 90012 90022 90023 90002 If you want a keeper, look into a Honda CR-V. A 2016 study by iSeeCars.com revealed one in four owners (25%) kept theirs longer than 10 years. Glancing at this model’s reliability ratings, you understand how that’s possible.CR-V scored the highest possible rating in six of eight years and recorded an above average rank the other two years. 90049 90003 90014 16. Toyota Corolla 90015 90002 The Toyota Corolla is boring, but it’s good at just about everything. | Toyota 90003 90018 90019 90011 In the current decade, Corolla was close to perfect in reliability. 90012 90022 90023 90002 If you wonder why Toyota scores close to the top in auto brand reliability every year, just check some of its top models. Corolla, which has been the definition of a vanilla compact car for decades, came close to perfect in its ratings every year since 2010 року.The 2014 redesign brought better fuel economy than ever, making it a great buy on the used market. 90003 90014 15. Acura TSX 90015 90002 The Acura TSX is a great used car buy. | Acura 90003 90018 90019 90011 In its final edition (2009-14), TSX landed the best ratings every single year. 90012 90022 90023 90002 Outside of Lexus, it’s rare to see any luxury-level cars posting top reliability scores. The late Acura TSX is one exception. Between 2009 and 2014 року, this model landed the highest possible rating every year.The TSX is long gone, but used models are a smart buy for consumers who prize practicality. 90003 90014 14. Honda Accord 90015 90002 Late-model cars, like this 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid are great used buys. | James Derek Sapienza / Autos Cheat Sheet 90003 90018 90019 90011 Between 2011 and 2017, Accord landed the top reliability score every year. 90012 90022 90023 90002 After landing the highest possible reliability rating for seven straight years, any doubts about Honda Accord disappeared.Since 2014 року, testers and consumers have been unable to find one recurring complaint about the midsize sedan. With a new model hitting the market for 2018, Honda once again needs to impress testers and owners, but every previous edition from this decade has a bulletproof reputation. 90003 90014 13. Lexus RX 90015 90002 The Lexus RX350 F Sport is both luxurious and reliable. | Lexus 90003 90018 90019 90011 Utility models like Lexus RX proved Toyota could deliver reliability in any format.90012 90022 90023 90002 While luxury brands like Land Rover and Alfa Romeo suffer from bad reliability ratings, Lexus has been one of the top marques of the decade. RX is a perfect example. Between 2010 and 2015 року, this crossover landed the top score from Consumer Reports every single year. The 2016 redesign barely changed that reputation, though the infotainment system in that debut (’16) model may bug consumers. 90003 90014 12. Toyota Tundra 90015 90002 It does not sell like a Ford F-150, but the Toyota Tundra is incredibly reliable.| Toyota 90003 90018 90019 90011 On the pickup market, no truck came close to Tundra’s reliability record. 90012 90022 90023 90002 With eight perfect reliability ratings in nine tries since 2010 no pickup comes close to Toyota Tundra’s record among owners and critics. This truck comes from Toyota’s Texas plant and has not had a full makeover since the current model debuted in 2007. While that may leave Tundra behind some of the U.S.-branded competition, practical buyers will be happy nothing much has changed.90003 90014 11. Toyota Highlander 90015 90002 The Toyota Highlander is one of the most reliable SUVs on the market. | Toyota 90003 90018 90019 90011 Owners refuse to sell Highlander because of its durability. 90012 90022 90023 90002 If you’re keeping score at home, Toyota Highlander landed the top reliability rating from Consumer Reports for nine out of 10 models that appeared since 2009. (In the 10th year, the SUV settled for an above-average mark.) Buyers on the hunt for a 2018 model with three rows will want to test drive a new Highlander, but think of it in terms of the long haul.In the iSeeCars study, Highlander was the model owners held onto the longest. 90003 90014 10. Lexus CT 200h 90015 90002 The CT 200h was Lexus ‘standalone hybrid model. | Lexus 90003 90018 90019 90011 The Toyota Prius platform served Lexus CT 200h well. 90012 90022 90023 90002 Though 2017 marked the final model-year for the CT 200h, this Prius-based wagon stands to endure for years to come. In the six years (2011-16) testers provided feedback and owners rated this hybrid, CT 200h landed the top reliability rating every year.Even though it’s been discontinued, this Lexus has to be counted among the most durable vehicles of the decade. 90003 90014 9. Mazda3 90015 90002 The Mazda3 is one of the best compact cars on the market. | Mazda 90003 90018 90019 90011 Outside of in-car electronics, Mazda3 has been near perfect in reliability the entire decade. 90012 90022 90023 90002 With another top reliability score in 2018, Mazda3 has been perfect for eight of nine years across two generations since 2010. Its engine, transmission, brake system, power equipment and finish all passed extensive tests the entire decade.As owners look to bigger cars and compact sedans become less desirable, Mazda3 will continue to be a great buy on the secondhand market. 90003 90014 8. Toyota Avalon 90015 90002 Toyota’s full-size Avalon holds its value better than most of its competitors. | Toyota 90003 90018 90019 90011 Even for a Toyota, Avalon’s durability has been extraordinary. 90012 90022 90023 90002 You can find evidence of Toyota Avalon’s exceptional reliability on many fronts. When iSeeCars.com checked on used vehicles with the highest mileage, only a few nameplates had more examples with 200,000 on them.Meanwhile, Avalon landed the top reliability rating every year but one since 2010. It’s one of the most durable cars of the decade and a good bet for anyone who wants a car for the coming decade. 90003 90014 7. Lexus GS 90015 90002 This 2016 Lexus GS350 is an attractive and reliable used car buy. | James Derek Sapienza / Autos Cheat Sheet 90003 90018 90019 90011 Consumer Reports rated the GS sedan excellent every year this decade. 90012 90022 90023 90002 If you read through enough Consumer Reports ratings, you’ll notice even great cars can have bad years — usually, a redesign taking a few years for an automaker to work out the kinks.Then there are cars like Lexus GS, which never have any issue acing reliability tests year after year. Since 2010 GS never scored below excellent and rarely showed a flaw. The generation beginning with the 2013 redesign has been close to perfect. 90003 90014 6. Lexus IS 90015 90002 The Lexus IS is not the sportiest car in its segment, but it is the most reliable. | Lexus 90003 90018 90019 90011 Doubts about sportiness aside, Lexus IS has been practically unbreakable for owners. 90012 90022 90023 90002 Outside of a few blips in body integrity at the start of the decade and some infotainment issues around 2014 року, Lexus IS has delivered close to perfection on the reliability front for owners since 2010 року.Some might think this model’s performance is more Toyota than Lexus, but if your top priority is a car looking good and starting every morning, IS can not be beaten. 90049 90003 90014 5. Toyota RAV4 90015 90002 The Toyota Rav4 is one of the most popular vehicles in America. | Toyota 90003 90018 90019 90011 Consumer Reports testers and RAV4 owners have not reported a major complaint since 2012. 90012 90022 90023 90002 How does a manufacturer nail down the highest reliability scores for 10 years straight? It takes a near-perfect design and consistent execution at the assembly plant.Toyota, which builds RAV4 at a Canadian plant with about half Japanese parts, found the sweet spot with its hit crossover. Neither testers nor RAV4 owners have lodged a significant complaint about this vehicle since 2012. Both the ’13 and ’16 redesigns came off flawlessly. 90003 90014 4. Lexus ES 90015 90002 The Camry-based Lexus ES is the most reliable luxury car. | Lexus 90003 90018 90019 90011 After 11 straight years of top reliability scores, Lexus ES stands alone among luxury cars.90012 90022 90023 90002 Since 2008, Lexus ES never scored below the highest reliability rating. Breaking down the statistics, neither testers nor owners found flaws in the engine, transmission, electricals or fuel system in 11 years. For a car based on the Toyota Camry, drivers might want more pizzazz behind the wheel, but if durability is your goal then ES has no equal among luxury cars. 90049 90003 90014 3. Toyota Camry 90015 90002 The all-new 2018 Toyota Camry will likely be as reliable as its predecessors.| Toyota 90003 90018 90019 90011 It reigned as America’s favorite car all these years for a reason. 90012 90022 90023 90002 Midsize sedans dominated the American market for a generation, and Toyota Camry has been the industry’s top seller (excluding trucks) since 1993. Even if the all-new Honda Accord manages to bump Camry off in 2018, it’s clear why Toyota’s midsize rock led the pack for so many years. Between 2002 and 2017, Camry nailed down the top reliability rating from Consumer Reports every single model-year.90003 90014 2. Toyota Prius 90015 90002 The Toyota Prius has done more to normalize hybrid technology than any other car. | Toyota 90003 90018 90019 90011 Worries about Prius’s hybrid battery were put to bed in the last decade. 90012 90022 90023 90002 Once upon a time, hybrid car buyers dealt with worries of the electric car battery failing and their investment going to waste. Toyota Prius put those fears to bed long ago, and its 12 straight years of top reliability scores settled any other doubt consumers had.Every variant — from V wagons to the tiny C and plug-in hybrids — share this bulletproof record. No one has found even a minor flaw in Prius since 2011, making it the most reliable passenger car of the decade. 90003 90014 1. Toyota 4Runner 90015 90002 The Toyota 4Runner is nearly impossible to kill. | Toyota 90003 90018 90019 90011 An amazing 13 straight years of top reliability scores make 4Runner the undisputed champion. 90012 90022 90023 90002 It may lack refinement and seem a little dated, but as far as reliability is concerned nothing compares to Toyota 4Runner.The truck-based SUV posted 13 consecutive years of the highest ratings Consumer Reports gives for durability. Since 4Runner has not undergone a redesign since 2010 buyers of any model-year can be confident they’re getting the most bulletproof vehicle in America. 90003 90002 90259 Rankings provided by Consumer Reports. 90260 90003 90002 90259 Check out The Cheat Sheet on Facebook! 90260 90003 .
