Reliable Rides: Subaru has the most reliable vehicles, says Consumer Reports study

According to a new study from Consumer Reports, which calculated predicted reliability ratings for vehicle brands, Subaru has leads as the most reliable vehicle in North America.

This year’s report specifically gathered data on more than 300,000 vehicles from the 2000 to 2024 model years, with a few 2025 models introduced early enough to be included.

20 trouble areas were further studied—ranging from squeaky brakes, broken interior trim and out-of-warranty engines and transmissions, to electric vehicle batteries and EV charging.

The severity of each type of problem was weighed to create a predicted reliability score for each vehicle on a scale of one to 100.
