Want Reliability? Toyota Dominates New TUV Survey Reliability Report

Toyota steal the show for the fourth year running with 15 models earning Top 10 reliability ranking

We all associate Toyota with reliability and quality of build;  many of their main dealers also fly the customer service satisfaction flag rather exceptionally here in the UK.

Once again, Toyota have proved that their reputation is well deserved; in the annual TÜV Report – published in conjunction with Auto Bild Magazine -  15 models out of their line-up scored a maximum Top 10 rating.

What is interesting is that the report includes used models as well as new, proving that Toyota vehicles are built to last past the initial warranty period.

This is the fourth year that Toyota have achieved success in the well-respected TÜV Reliability Report; this in itself proves the consistency of the marque after year.

Used Toyota Performance

The Toyota Prius was the leading vehicle when it came to reports for older vehicles, taking the number one spot as far as 4-5 and 6-7 year old vehicles were concerned. In addition, the Auris was rated as 8^th in the 4-5 year old vehicle category and in the 6-7 year old category, the Verso was 6^th, the RAV4 was 7^th and the Yaris was 9^th.

In the 2-3 year old vehicle category, the Toyota iQ took third place with the Avensis coming in at number 9.

Even further down the line with 8-9 year old cars, Toyota still came up trumps with the Verso 2^nd, RAV4 3^rd, Avensis 5^th and the Corolla taking the number 8 spot. For 10-11 year old cars, the RAV4 was 2^nd, the Corolla was 3^rd and the Yaris was 4^th.

If you are looking for a quality vehicle – whether you are leasing or buying – it is always good to know that you will have trouble-free motoring.

Summary

Toyota have proved, once again, that this is not a myth as far as their cars are concerned – the report results really do speak for themselves.
