what are the most reliable cars that easily last 200,000 miles that's what we're going to find out welcome to Car Corner where we help you the consumer Master the process of car buying and car ownership I'm going to share 12 of the most reliable vehicles that are most likely to last over 200,000 Mi or over 300,000 km without any major issues this data comes from a recent survey by Consumer Reports but I'm also going to cross reference the list with other reputable sources like car Edge and IC car which also have very similar reliability studies
so let's start with the first vehicle that came in the number 12 spot and that vehicle is the Honda Civic the Civic has a very strong reliability track record and it can easily run for over 200,000 Mi or 300,000 km with just basic maintenance to be on the safe side however make sure that you get one with the naturally aspirated 2 L 4 cylinder engine which is a solid simple engine that's built to last and the best option available car Edge gives the Civic an A+ rating and predicts that it'll cost only $1,400 in maintenance
and repairs after 5 years and the Civic was in the number eight spot on the IC cars list of cars that will last 250,000 Mi so the consensus is in the Civic is a safe bet the next vehicle which Consumer Reports put in the number 11 spot is the Toyota Highlander among three row SUVs the Highlander is easily one of the safest choices with a strong reputation for reliability that stretches back over 20 years car Edge agrees with Consumer Reports on this one giving the Highlander an A+ rating and predicts that it'll cost $1600 in
maintenance and repairs after 5 years and the Highlander came in the number 12 spot on the IC cars list of SUVs that'll last 250,000 Mi now to be fair Toyota did recently replace the Highlander's really well appr proven V6 engine with a newer 4 Cinder turbo so it remains to be seen whether the new turbo engine will have the similar longevity as the V6 it's less likely but if you want to be on the safe side the Highlander Hybrid does have a conventional non-turbo engine which should be incredibly reliable now if for whatever reason you're
not sold on the Highlander then the next SUV in the number 10 spot should do it and that is the Toyota 4Runner the Forerunner is known for being one of the most reliable vehicles that you can buy brand new and frankly I'm surprised that Consumer Reports didn't put it much higher than the number 10 spot car Edge certainly agrees giving the Forerunner an A+ rating and predicts that it'll cost $1,600 in maintenance and repairs after 5 years but the Forerunner did also come in the number 10 spot on the IC cars list of SUVs that'll
last A4 million miles so there is consensus on this one I am a bit surprised however to see the vehicle that Consumer Reports put in the number nine spot and that vehicle is the 4 for F-150 this one is a bit controversial although the F-150 are certainly capable of running 200,000 Mi whether they can do so trouble-free is a bit up in the air the EcoBoost engines can be a bit iffy at high mileage but the 5 l v engine seems to be fairly well sorted and rather solid at this point car Edge does give
the F-150 an a rating but does predict that it'll cost $2,700 in maintenance and repairs after 5 years but it did come in the number 11 spot on the IC cars list of trucks that will last A4 million miles which admittedly did put it ahead of the Ram 1500 and the GMC Sierra the next vehicle which Consumer Reports put in the number eight spot is a far more predictable choice and that is the Honda Odyssey The Odyssey is a go-to choice for a reliable minivan especially if you want a minivan with a proper V6 engine
an option that you can no longer get on its competitor the Toyota Sienna car Edge agrees on this one giving the Odyssey an A minus rating and predicts that it'll cost $2,000 in maintenance and repairs after 5 years and it came just behind the Sienna on the IC cars list of minivans that'll last A4 million miles so again there is consensus on this one the next vehicle which Consumer Reports puts in the number seven spot is a compact car and that is the Toyota Corolla and that makes the Corolla the most reliable compact car and
the one most likely to reach 200,000 Mi trouble-free car Edge gives the Corolla an a rating only costing $1,100 in maintenance and repairs after 5 years incredibly low IC cars however did have it a bit further down the list in the number 14 spot even so I think it's safe to say that the Corolla is an excellent choice for a reliable long- lasting small car and next up in the number six spot we have another truck and that is the Toyota Tundra historically the Tundra has been the safest choice for those that want a reliable
full-size truck that will last an eternity it's just free of the hitter Miss type issues that are common with all the domestic brand trucks car Edge agrees on this one giving the tundra an a rating and predicts that it'll cost $2,000 in maintenance and repairs after 5 years and it came in third place on the IC cars list of vehicles that'll last A4 million miles but even though the sources do agree on this one much of this data is based on the previous generation Tundra with the V8 engine the current generation Tundra now has a
twin turbo V6 and it's too early to tell whether the long-term reliability is going to be like but Consumer Reports does seem to have a pattern going on with their picks on the list because the next vehicle in the number five spot is the Toyota Tacoma again not a surprising Choice Tacomas are legendary for their incredible reliability and are definitely a no-brainer among midsize trucks IC cars put the Tacoma in the seventh spot among Vehicles most likely to last A4 million miles interestingly though car Edge only gives the Tacoma a B rating like the tundra
the latest generation Tacoma does now have a turbo engine so time will tell whether it'll hold up as well as the previous generation but I think it's still a pretty safe choice and the next vehicle which Consumer Reports is putting in the number four spot is the Honda CRV the CRV received one of the highest reliability scores in the survey and it also received an A+ rating from car Edge and predicts that it'll cost $1,900 in maintenance and repairs after 5 years IC cars also gave it glowing reviews coming in the number seven spot for
SUVs most likely to reach A4 million miles and it came in the 15th spot for all vehicle types overall the CRV is an excellent SUV but I will mention that the 1.5 L engine does have some repor is shoes so I would recommend going with the hybrid to be on the safe side which is a rock solid choice and now getting into the top three the next vehicle that comes in the number three spot is the Honda Accord another predictable Choice here the Accord is legendary for its longevity and No Nonsense reliability both IC cars
and car Edge certainly agree the Accord receives an a rating with a predicted cost of $1,500 in maintenance and repairs after 5 years IC cars put it right next to the CRV for cars most likely to reach A4 million miles like the CRV I would recommend going with the hybrid version on this one which I believe is the safer choice and that brings us to the runnerup car that came in second place and according to consumer reports that car is the Toyota Prius the Prius was the only car that's exclusively made as a hybrid to
make the list and it received topnotch ratings from every Source not only did it receive exceptional reliability ratings from Consumer Reports but car Edge gives it an A+ rating and predicts 5-year maintenance and repair cost to only be $1,100 an IC cars gives it a top rating among hybrids with an excellent score as well there is a reason why the Prius is so popular among taxi drivers in so many different areas these things run forever and they don't give you problems it's a phenomenal car and a top pick for reliability but apparently there is one
other car that's more likely to hit the 200,000 M or 300,000 km Milestone with even greater ease and that car is the number one car on the list being the Toyota Camry no vehicle in the study received higher praise in this one the Camry earned top reliability ratings from both consumer reports and car Edge the lowest 5-year cost for maintenance and repairs at $11,100 which ties the Prius and according to IC cars the only passenger car that's more likely to beat the Camry to 250,000 Mi is the Avalon which is basically a sister car that's
no longer made like the Prius this is a popular choice among taxi drivers and the abuse the wear and tear and the mileage that these cars are able to tolerate is incredible and this is true whether you go with the regular version or the hybrid version so whichever one you're looking at the Camry is a winner so clearly we have a Trend going on here four of the cars on the consumer reports list were Hondas and seven of the cars were Toyotas and the only vehicle on the entire list that was anything else was the
Ford F-150 I agree with those that say that you should never rely on one source of information for making a decision but in this case two other reputable sources more or less back up these results so the choices seem to be quite solid and safe picks it's not my data at the end of the day I'm just sharing it with all of you so after watching this video which of these vehicles would be your pick let me know in the comments and if you enjoyed this video make sure to like And subscribe you can also
