  • silver tesla model s

    For a first Driver Power appearance, the Tesla Model S has blitzed into first place on many things - but a score of 97.54% and 5th place for reliability is nothing to be sniffed at. It's great news for the relatively young manufacturer

  • Subaru Forester (2012-2018) review

    Subaru's loyal followers praise the practicality, ruggedness and all-wheel-drive ability of their cars - and now, they're praising its reliability too, with a score of 97.37%.

  • Honda Civic - front

    If you can look beyond the divisive styling of the Honda Civic, you'll find a really reliable car, posting a score of 97.3%.

  • Skoda Citigo Black Edition front

    <span>It’s the compact dimensions that give the Skoda impressive manoeuvrability in tight spots, but a spacious interior that delivers a big car feel inside.</span>

  • Lexus NX - front tracking

    A fourth Lexus model, the NX, makes it into the top 10 for reliability with a score of 97.24% - identical to the Skoda Citigo, and a great result.

  • Lexus CT 200h action

    The final top 10 spot goes to - you guessed it - another Lexus! We've never been massive fans of the CT's firm ride and cramped cabin, but owners aren't finding anything to complain about on the reliability front, with a score of 97.2%
