According to report, the Yaris was found to have a superb reliability rating which was almost double compared to that of its nearest rival, the Ford Fiesta. Other popular models up the top 5 most reliable cars found on UK roads included the Vauxhall Corsa and Astra.
Commenting on this, Duncan McClure Fisher, founder and CEO of MotorEasy said:
“The Yaris scored well due to “lower frequency for repairs”. Plus, Yaris also featured “lower repair costs” which would be affordable to the majority of road users.”
Fisher went on to add that “these top 10 models have a combined 8.5million licensed for use on UK roads, and for good reason – they are seen as dependable vehicles from trusted brands.”
