The 10 Most Reliable Car Brands For 2025 Will Shock You

The 10 Most Reliable Car Brands For 2025 Will Shock You

We’ve got new comparisons fresh off the press! Consumer Reports just released their Car Brand Reliability rankings for 2025. Enjoy the fresh data below!

Have you ever found yourself pleasantly surprised upon discovering that a certain car brand far exceeds your expectations? Maybe it was the first time you saw the redesigned Kia Sportage, or perhaps it was the new Honda Accord. This year, some names on the list of the top 10 most reliable car brands might just raise your eyebrows! 

Consumer Reports’ Annual Reliability Rankings

most reliable car brands 2025 - Consumer Reports rankings

Every year, Consumer Reports asks its members about problems they’ve had with their vehicles in the previous 12 months. With data from over 300,000 vehicles that addresses 17 common trouble areas, CR’s reliability ratings are the best in the industry. The result of their testing and surveys is a rating system that assigns scores to brands and specific models.

These are the top 10 of the most reliable car brands for 2025 and their overall scores, as ranked by Consumer Reports. Surprise, surprise! Subaru, Lexus, and Toyota top the charts. Chances are you didn’t expect to see the likes of BMW, Kia, and Hyundai on this list! We’ve added the change in Consumer Reports brand reliability score since last year for comparison’s sake.

#1 Subaru – 68 (-1)

#2 Lexus – 65 (-14)

#3 Toyota – 62 (-17)

#4 Honda – 59 (-11)

#5 Acura – 55 (-15)

#6 Mazda – 55 (-12)

#7 Audi – 54 (+11)

#8 BMW – 53 (-11)

#9 Kia – 51 (-10)

#10 Hyundai – 50 (-6)

Among the top 10 brands by reliability, all except Toyota moved up this year. For 2025, Mini and Porsche were knocked off of the list.

👉 It’s important to note that Consumer Reports lacked sufficient data for brand rankings for the following brands: Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Infiniti, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lincoln, Lucid, Maserati, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Mitsubishi, Polestar, Porsche, and Ram.

Here’s how other major car brands scored in Consumer Reports’ testing.

# 11 Buick – 48 (-7)

#12 Nissan – 48 (+3)

#13 Ford – 44 (+4)

#14 Genesis – 40 (-4)

#15 Volvo – 38 (+10)

#16 Chevrolet – 37 (-6)

#17 Tesla – 36 (-12)

#18 Volkswagen – 34 (+8)

#19 Jeep – 33 (+7)

#20 GMC – 33 (-3)

#21 Cadillac – 33 (-3)

#22 Rivian – 14 (-10)

The bottom half shouldn’t be a surprise. In fact, it resembles the list of automakers with the most recalls in 2024:

  • FCA US (Stellantis brands Jeep, Ram, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Alfa Romeo) – 64 recalls
  • Ford (Ford and Lincoln) – 62 recalls
  • BMW – 34 recalls
  • General Motors – 32 recalls
  • Mercedes-Benz – 25 recalls
  • Hyundai – 25 recalls

See the complete list of NHTSA automaker recalls, and check your vehicle’s VIN number for recalls.

How did Consumer Reports come up with their reliability rankings? Here’s what they’ve shared on their rankings page: “This year we calculated brand-level score by first examining the weighted overall problem rate for all models within a brand for each model year. Then the brand reliability score was calculated by averaging models from 2022 to 2024, and some early 2025 data for each brand, where there was sufficient sample size.” For those interested in a 2025 model, you’ll have to wait until the next Consumer Reports reliability rankings come out in December 2025.

Reliability by Powertrain

car reliability by powertrain 2025 - Tesla

Hybrid vehicles were found to have the best reliability among electrified powertrains. A closer look at Consumer Reports’ 2025 data reveals that some hybrids have much worse reliability than others. Ford’s F-150 Hybrid and Escape Hybrid have very low reliability according to CR. Fully-electric vehicles had 42% MORE problems than gas and hybrid vehicles, and plug-in hybrids scored the worst by far with 70% more problems than gas and hybrid vehicles.

Navigating Reliability Ratings: Final Thoughts

While reliability is a crucial factor in choosing your next vehicle, it’s essential to consider other elements. Factors like fuel efficiency, comfort, safety features, and the car’s total cost of ownership play significant roles in your decision-making process. Each driver has unique needs and preferences, and finding the perfect balance of these elements is key to enjoying your purchase for years to come.

Stellantis’ CEO Has Resigned. Is Now a Bad Time to Buy a Jeep, Ram, or Dodge?

Stellantis’ CEO Has Resigned. Is Now a Bad Time to Buy a Jeep, Ram, or Dodge?

In a surprising move, Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares has stepped down from his position, effective immediately. The announcement comes as the automaker faces slumping profits and weakening U.S. sales across its brands, which include Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, and Maserati. The resignation marks a sudden leadership shakeup for the global automaker, leaving both the auto industry and consumers questioning what lies ahead.

What Happened at Stellantis?

Stellantis released a statement on December 1, 2024 confirming Tavares’ resignation, citing disagreements between the CEO and the board of directors. To ensure continuity, Stellantis has formed an interim executive committee while a special committee works to appoint a permanent CEO. The process is expected to conclude by mid-2025. Understandably, car buyers are feeling a sense of uncertainty with the world’s fourth-largest automaker marching towards 2025 without a leader.

The timing of this leadership change comes at a critical moment for Stellantis. The automaker has been navigating challenges in electrification, global sales, and production. Just last month, Stellantis reported a drop in profit and a sluggish performance in the U.S. market. Several of the slowest-selling cars in America are from Jeep, Fiat, and Alfa Romeo. 

Should Car Buyers Be Worried?

For current shoppers eyeing a new Jeep, Ram, or Dodge during December’s year-end car sales, there’s little reason for immediate concern. December’s deals will remain unaffected by the leadership shakeup. Additionally, the vehicles currently on dealership lots have already been built, ensuring consistent quality for buyers today.

However, for those looking to the future, Stellantis’ leadership crisis introduces a layer of uncertainty. Depending on how the automaker’s new leadership chooses to navigate these challenges, significant shifts in brand strategy, quality, and reliability could be on the horizon. Extreme cost-cutting measures to address profitability concerns could result in setbacks, particularly if they compromise vehicle durability or customer satisfaction.

Another potential concern is the impact on resale values. If Stellantis faces ongoing struggles, the market value of its vehicles could decline, especially if rumors of brand discontinuation or financial instability arise. Buyers planning to hold onto their vehicles for several years should factor these possibilities into their decisions. See how Jeep, Ram, and Dodge resale values compare. 

Is December 2024 Still a Good Time to Buy a Ram, Jeep, or Dodge?

Stellantis year end deals 2024 - Ram 1500

For those considering a Stellantis vehicle today, December is still an excellent time to buy. Year-end car deals are among the best of the year, with significant discounts and financing offers available across Jeep, Ram, Dodge, and other Stellantis brands. We’ve gathered all of the best car deals here. 

For instance, Jeep and Ram are offering competitive APR financing and cash incentives on popular models, and Dodge muscle cars are seeing deep discounts as the company clears inventory ahead of model transitions. The current deals reflect business as usual for Stellantis, making now a great time to take advantage of the incentives.

Looking Ahead to 2025

While December deals remain a bright spot for buyers, Stellantis’ future direction remains uncertain. Whether the automaker can navigate this leadership transition effectively will depend on the decisions of its new CEO and leadership team. With challenges in electrification, profitability, and U.S. market performance, the stakes are high.

Stay tuned to CarEdge News for updates on Stellantis’ future and its impact on buyers.
