<p>The Studies Behind the Rankings</p>
<p>The independent nonprofit Consumer Reports gathered and analyzed data on more than 300,000 vehicles to create its 2025 vehicle reliability rankings. Japan dominates the enviable side of the list, with Subaru, Lexus, Toyota, Honda and Acura claiming the top five spots. Unfortunately for those looking to buy American, domestic brands occupy five of the bottom six.</p>
<p>CarEdge complemented the Consumer Reports study with CarEdge Insights data to include the average sale price for each brand and to add its own reliability ratings, which, like those from Consumer Reports, range from 1 to 100, with higher being better.</p>
<p>Interestingly, a pair of EV-only automakers bookend the five-place list, which also includes a pair of storied GM brands.</p>
