Reliability Ratings

If you’re wondering which specific Toyota models are the most reliable ones to purchase used, turn to the experts at Consumer Reports, who published a list of the “Best Used SUVs, Sedans, and Small Cars.” The list is organized by price point, but one common factor at every price level is the presence of a Toyota vehicle. For instance, at the “Under $10,000” level, you will find the 2010-2014 Toyota Corolla and 2010-2012 Toyota Prius in the “Compact Cars” category. The 2010-2011 Toyota RAV4 is the sole representative for the “Small SUV” category. 

Moving to the $10,000-$15,000 category, the Toyota Corolla represents the “Compact Cars” category. Consumer Reports said, “Dependable, fuel-efficient transportation is the Corolla’s strength.” Another Toyota model, the 2013-2015 Toyota Camry dominated the “Midsized and Large Cars” category, with the editors stating, “The Camry is a solid choice because of its outstanding reliability, strong value, and fuel-efficient performance.”
