Honda Reliability
Honda has a long-standing and well-earned reputation for reliability. The popular Japanese automaker scores consistently highly in reliability tests and did so once again in the recent MotorEasy reliability survey, which analysed 47,000 policies over a period of two and half years. Honda came second in our list, which covered 33 manufacturers, scoring an impressive 4.6 out of 5.
It’s hard to argue with such consistently impressive feedback and Honda, like many of the big Japanese car manufacturers, certainly represents a solid choice if you’re looking for a dependable car that won’t end up costing you an arm a leg in repairs.
How reliable are Honda’s top models?
Honda Jazz
Honda’s much-loved Jazz supermini is well-known for its reliability and owes much of its popularity to low running costs. The Jazz routinely wins plaudits for its remarkable reliability, so owners can expect repair costs to be low. Aside from its field-leading reliability, the Jazz delivers on a variety of fronts, not least a practical, well-thought out interior that grants far more space and comfort than you’d expect from such a neat little car.
Honda CR-V
The Honda CR-V is a sturdy, well-built SUV that’s lived up to Honda’s reputation for reliability and lasting build-quality over the years. It scores well across all the main reliability surveys and owner feedback is invariably favourable. The CR-V is now 23-years old and represents all the enduring qualities we’ve come to expect from Honda – it’s well-designed, practical and reliable – even if it’s hardly the most radical car on the market.
