Mazda successfully repositioned its brand from upper mass-market to premium in the last decade, just between the luxury Lexus and the upper mass-market Toyota, so from my point of view it is the best choice of quality/price ratio in some segments (especially in cabrio - I have an amazing Miata ND2 RF, 0 issues, plenty of fun for the last 5 years). Still, I have a Lexus crossover hybrid (Mazda didn't have the hybrid option 4 years ago) and a Suzuki Jimny LCV for offroad, both great cars, 0 issues, not even recalls, just like Mazda. No matter the auto segment, one of the best Japanese producers is the leader in reliability, low TCO (Total Cost of Ownership), durability etc. for that segment. A decade ago or earlier their design was usually boring (like the Germans' one), but recently even that part was very nicely solved, thus there is no logical reason why buying a non-Japanese brand. Unfortunately, there are far too many people falling for some advertising, some show off opulence or small prices etc. The top shmacks are those purchasing Chinese commies' clunkers, including those acquired - like Jaguar, Land Rover, MG etc. but not that dumb as the BEV clunkers' owners.

Great video and valuable information. Without being an expert, I completely agree with the choices. For some reasons the best brands are Japanese, which has to do with the culture of honor and pride in doing things with good quality to satisfy customers. The Korean brands have done very good progress but still lagging behind. I have the impression that Kia and Hyundai emphasize attractiveness more than functionality and reliability. The opposite happens for example with a Toyota 4Runner, in my opinion one of the top 5 most reliable vehicles ever made.

When evaluating vehicles, one must consider availability. It seems Toyota is still stuck in the middle of the COVID crisis. The wait time for a RAV4 is more than a year and is probably longer with no guarantees of a delivery date. That’s unacceptable and no matter the purported superior quality of Toyota’s fleet, if you can’t get one when you need one, then comparisons are largely moot. We opted for a 2023 Mazda CX-5 6 months ago and are very happy with it. Both local Mazda dealers had the trim level we wanted when we wanted it.
@codincoman90199 ай бұрын
Mazda, the 3rd most reliable auto brand (I have an amazing Miata ND2 RF, #1 as quality/price, reliability, durability, costs etc. in the cabrio segment) is an excellent choice in many segments (CX-5 included, congratulations!). Still... #1 and #2 in reliability - according to all the last annual surveys from Consumer Reports - are Lexus and Toyota, thus is a real, not a purported quality... Moreover, Toyota has the lowest TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) and the highest mpg with the hybrids plus excellent durability, therefore its cars' quality is undeniable. I don't own any Toyota (I have a hybrid Lexus, the Miata and a Suzuki Jimny), but I managed the expenses of hundreds of compact and average Toyota sedans and crossovers in the companies' fleets I worked for, for many years - and they are pretty famous for the knowledgeable drivers. If there is a good planning for acquiring a new car, then there should be no issue with the longer delivery term from Toyota. But I strongly recommend buying a very well checked (origin, history of an aggressive maintenance/service and checking the recalls - if any -, usual issues with an excellent mechanic, to have had no major accidents - and the small ones, such as scratches, to be well repaired etc.) second hand car (but with only one careful owner, not two or more!), with no more than 80'000 miles on it, because their price is excellent (you pay only half of the MSRP for a 6-years old, but that car will have more than 15 years of life in it). Myself I bought the Lexus and the Jimny with far less than a year of driving and 5'000 miles on them from the previous owners, with an average discount of 27% vs. MRSP! 0 issues in the last 4-5 years with any of my Japanese cars, not even recalls, despite being driven harder than most cars on/off the roads - I will die long before my cars. All it takes is patience (few months) and a lot of research till you find an excellent deal (and even then you can still negotiate a bit, but without aggressivity, but showing respect to the owner and love for that car and its qualities). All the best!

Depending on the segment, the top Japanese leaders may change. But, overall, the Consumer Reports annual reliability surveys for the last 5 years, taken as a rolling average, are having Lexus, Toyota and Mazda as the top picks. Honda is in the 4th place (nobody with a functional brain can believe that Mini or Bring My Wallet can move suddenly to the 3rd position and ofc getting out the next year), fighting Subaru and Acura etc. In other markets Mitsubishi (with a top plug-in like the Outlander) and Suzuki (with a top off-roader like Jimny) are correctly appreciated. Nissan/Infinity struggled, but hopefully are recovering. The Koreans are better than most Germans (except Porsche - but that is too expensive), but cannot compare with the top Japanese leaders. At the bottom (where the absolute "leaders" are the Chinese commies with their BYD, SAIC etc., including what they acquired from Europe: Land Rover, Jaguar, MG - except Volvo), there are also Mercedes, VW, Chrysler, Jeep, Rivian, Tesla (despite - the apparent only - latest growth) etc. If you really want a reliable, low TCO (Total Cost of Ownership), durable car the only option is a Japanese top car (even their design is now excellent - if you appreciate the discreet style over the show off opulence).

Mazda CX90 has a brand new inline 6 that is now being tested on the first buyers(as usual) , will see that in the years to come how bad/good it is. Also the interior is really cramped compared with the overall size of the car.Toyota changed everything to 2.4L turbo and slapped an electric motor to compensate for power, will need time to see some reports before paying "Toyota reliability" prices which are absurd. The 4 Runner which everyone praises is absolutely a beast and reliable, however one should ask, do I really need a truck that is meant for rock crawling, takes an average 13L /km -17Mpg and is prone to rust more than any other SUV given the body on frame construction .
