Here Are The Most Reliable Engines Coming In 2025!

[@mjk9674]

wow Mark, incredibly informative! so much great detail pouring out of you. Thanks for everything

[@sk1maxxx]

Mark, you know your stuff. Keep up the great work in educating all us who are not savvy on car engines. Take care!

[@Vincent-ke5zn]

That's where Toyota made their mistakes getting rid of the V8 and non turbo V6 they should have followed the rule, if it's not broken, don't fix it

[@BT-zw2ix]

Blame the EPA

[@terrafirma8813]

I have a Japan built 2.5 NA 6 speed Mazda Cx-5 since 2017. The reliability has been bullet proof and just regular maintenance. Only put top-tier gasoline due to the GDI engine. It’s just that the amazing soul red color chips way too easily, and the ride is firmer than I’d like due to the sporty suspension. Otherwise it’s a worry-free car.

[@ECPP]

Those are great vehicles and I have a couple friends with those units and those are ultra reliable

[@adamburns2452]

I have a Corvette that is American made pal just put gas in it 😅😂 so what

[@samkitty5894]

What good is reliable engine on a car with CVT transmission, soy covered wiring, VVT, TCV, cylinder deactivation, oil dilution, etc ? Every car is only as good as its weakest link...

[@majood245]

In my opinion, Mercedes and BMW with a 3.0L Turbocharged inline 6 totally amazing engine, handcrafted engine, easy to fix, regular maintenance with these it’s gonna be reliable and don’t waste your money with V8s or PHEVs

[@Mikea6972]

You're correct. And I agree with you. But I love v8's and from my experience, owning and still own a couple of Mercedes, CL550, S550, ML63. They have been bulletproof. Normal maintenance and life is good. I have 135k on the CL with the 5.5 NA v8. 85k on the bi-Turbo Sclass and 110k on the ML63 Bi-Turbo. If you take care of these cars, they will take care of you. It's that simple. This goes for BMW, Audi etc...

[@majood245]

@@Mikea6972 that’s a great question, with a better maintenance and better life with a vehicle, and that’s why all of us doesn’t care about taking care of vehicles

Good morning. Thanks for watching. Yes it’s cooling off here too in Canada. Beautiful morning but we can feel the chill

[@GranMastaDee]

@@ECPP, I'll help you get set up here in Denver/Boulder while you still can. It has the same aesthetics but a milder climate. I left Canada in 1984! It's a one-way street.

[@BigBoss-tk6lh]

In my opinion any engine from any brand that can do 200k miles+ with only regular maintenance is a reliable engine..especially these days with lots of plastics in engine bay😅

[@ECPP]

I would agree with that thought

[@donaldbanner2185]

Simply NOT true!....Truth is that some people buy GUCCI to compete with the Jone-ses...... and are stretched to the max Jus to get said vehicle so they do not maintain them i.e Beemer or cedes....or they are so rich THEY DO NOT CARE!

[@salihotey7957]

Thanks for the input!

[@johnrkean]

Except Audi. I changed the oil on my 3.2 every 5k and it still broke a timing chain.

[@Vincent-ke5zn]

The Toyotas and Lexus are also very beautiful vehicles along with their reliability. I've also heard great things about the Frontier by Nissan

[@Vincent-ke5zn]

Another great informative video Mark, I hope that you and your family have a great weekend buddy

[@raymondhughes137]

2012 acura tl with the 3.5. get with low mileage and taken care of. won't regret

[@ECPP]

Yes great cars

[@sunking2001]

My 2020 Camry LE has the same A25A FKS Dynamic Force engine as your 2022 Camry. I change oil every 6 months with OW-16 Mobil 1 synthetic and use only authentic Toyota oil filters...regardless the miles! I do the oil changes myself. I by a 5 gallon Mobil 1 container at Wal-Mart for around $25.

[@Vincent-ke5zn]

That's a very beautiful, sharp looking red Frontier truck, I love it's cool design

[@thomascrompton7775]

[@rossroteliuk5838]

Great info as usual! Thank you 👍👍

[@ECPP]

Thanks for the support

[@thedon7530]

Common theme with this dude, takes a long time to convey a pretty straight forward message.

[@virgilwyatt4632]

The "Acura" logo is not a squeeze "Honda" logo. Believe it or not, it is a set of calipers. Coincidentally, it does look they just squeezed together the Honda logo to arrive at the Acura logo but it is actually supposed to be a set of drafting calipers to denote "Accurate" and their company model of "Precision Crafted Performance."

[@ReasonReality345]

Great show, Mark. Where do I find these engine designations on the vehicle itself? Engine bay? Door jam? Thanks.

[@DR_BustA1515]

wish Toyota would put a 6 speed manual with that 2.5 NA engine

[@kwazar6725]

Need to get a reliable car soon. My wifes toyota 2006 2l is still working, but time to retire.

[@ECPP]

Yes there are less and less truly reliable cost effective cars to now. These days

[@BT-zw2ix]

The gas mileage on the Nissan 5:09 was I think kinda the other way around lol. Anyway, good review as usual, now in the semmer😅😅😅

[@ECPP]

Great point!

[@dg7438]

How do you coincidentally find the exact cars you're talking about in one lot? Or do you search out diferent lots for the cars you're referring to? I always thought that was amazing haha

[@ECPP]

Haha great question, but I know the cars I need and search for them.

[@GranMastaDee]

I have very little doubt that your hard work will pay dividends. Great Job!

[@remyvermunt8623]

i would like to know which OLD cars are reliable, anything

[@AvengerAngel]

Having an allegiance to Toyota, I hope the Toyota 2.5-liter four-cylinder naturally aspirated, as in our 2023 non-hybrid RAV4 will be available for years to come. The newest addition is, despite my reservations, but pressure by the other half, is a 2024 Crown Platinum with the turbo hybrid 4 cyl and although these are made in Japan, I wonder about longevity. Of course, my getting up in years also worries me about my own longevity!

[@ECPP]

Yes it seems like a a good foundation to a bunch of other hybrids

[@PatrickHenry-t1s]

Go straight 4 or straight 6 they are stronger structurally than a V engine especially with mild turbo charging. Japanese had it right in the 90s.

[@Vincent-ke5zn]

310 hp is plenty of power and it's fast enough and good mpg

[@Vincent-ke5zn]

Acura is a very beautiful vehicle and reliable

[@johnmadow5331]

I can no longer finance the bank for car loans due to my age, I have to pay cash for car. My sister is offered her 2015 Toyota Rev 4 thar she is original owner to me after her retirement.

[@ECPP]

Great vehicle

[@Vincent-ke5zn]

I love the grille of the Lexus it's sharp looking

[@albertatundra]

Honda's j35Y8 seems to be a pretty awesome engine as well. At the moment, it is only found in the pilot.

[@stevensilver1679]

My first and 2nd generation Lexus IS have been the most reliable cars I've ever owned.

[@KennethSmith-lb4ln]

Can you please comment on VW 1.0L TSI engine, should I buy or walk away.

[@lane5686]

[@gangiization]

2021 NX 300h vs 2022 Mazda Cx-5 2.5 awd. Whitch is the best choice in your opinion ?

[@BigBoss-tk6lh]

Both are good i think..for me as a 2015 cx5 owner I'll go with mazda👍

[@ECPP]

[@ECPP]

I would say both are great and Mazda is an amazing ride but I likely would go Lexus more for the slightly better depreciation. Joe stay both great choices

That is not the outgoing Acura MDX. That's a 3rd generation model he's showing. The fourth (current generation) has been for sale since 2022.

[@dimitarm7647]

What do you think of the new 2024/25 Lincoln Nautilus?

[@ECPP]

I like the look and they are loaded with tech but that engine is always a bit of a hit or miss for Ford/Lincoln

[@TheLoanshark08]

All of these tiny motors with turbos really don’t save anything better on MPG. I have a shitty glitchy grand Wagoneer for a rental. That hurricane engine is quick but my V8 Titan is better on fuel. I also have an Acura ILX with the 2.4 VTEC. Bring back reliable naturally aspirated motors 😮

[@phillyspitta8147]

Before I watch I just hope the Lexus 3.5 is on the list

[@sorabvanzemaljac3129]

2025 haw you know what will be reliable ? Time will tell .

[@trevorsutherland5263]

I agree with everything on here and generally to avoid a turbo if possible. However, I'd put the GM 3.6l V6 on this list. Yeah, I heard about timing chain stretch from 2008 - 2012 but that is well over a decade ago (and in many cases it was too little oil in the engine that caused it). The GM 3.6 is everywhere, in everything and it is cheap to run on regular gas, parts easy to find, and using cheap Wal Mart synthetic oil with a 5K interval you can easily get 200K miles out of it.

[@ECPP]

Thanks for sharing and yes it’s a highly utilized engine.

[@ArrowGearhead]

Why is engine downsizing a trend these days? Most manufacturers are reducing down their engine size.

[@WesternBlur]

Because when paired with turbos they can satisfy the hostile, antiwhite governments of the West.

[@waselmali9749]

The Lexus will likely be a bit more reliable for the long term. If a person only owns cars for lease terms or short term than they are both fine.
