Consumer Reports recently released another top ten list, spotlighting the best used cars across various segments. Toyota dominated with three entries (Corolla Hybrid, RAV4 Hybrid, and Tacoma), while Mazda followed with two (CX-9 and MX-5). The cars reported come from years 2014 to 2019.
Lexus and Toyota were the most reliable used car brands by a wide margin, confirming their reputation among buyers. Steven Elek, CR’s program leader for auto data analytics, said that the two brands are known for their “conservative redesigns, incrementally improving their entire product line, rather than introducing many all-new systems”.
