Who Makes the Most Reliable New Cars? Hybrids Remain Reliable, EVs and PHEVs Less So
“Again this year, hybrids are more reliable than pure EVs and PHEVs. A majority of hybrid cars, minivans, SUVs, and trucks—which combine a gasoline engine with a small electric motor and battery—have average or better reliability in this year’s survey.
Both Rivian and Lucid continue to struggle to produce reliable vehicles. These EV-only automakers are relatively new to the market and continue to face similar quality and EV powertrain issues that Tesla encountered in its early years.”
