Toyota Takes Top 3 in Consumer Reports Annual Reliability Ranking




Toyota rules the Consumer Report annual reliability rankings with Toyota Motor Co.’s Scion brand taking the number one spot on the list, followed by Lexus and Toyota. The Toyota Prius C received the best overall score of any car on the Consumer Report list!

“We are not surprised by this at all,” said Nathan Ayers of Burien Toyota. “Toyota brands have earned this recognition for reliability through years of creating high quality cars that people have come to count on. Consumers recognize that.”

Scion’s philosophy of creating cars “built by passion-not committee” has taken Scion to the top of the automotive industry. The small size of this Toyota brand allows it to design unique cars that can be personalized to the car-buyer. Attention to detail and this kind of personalization are just a couple reasons that people trust their Scions.

The Toyota Prius C is the smallest of the Prius family, but has made the biggest name for itself after earning  on top of the Consumer Report annual reliability rankings! The Prius C is perfect for getting around town and because it gets 53 mpg, you’ll be doing a lot of getting around. Despite the size of the Prius C, can comfortably fit four and “easy-to-assemble Swedish furniture.”

“When people come to Burien Toyota looking for a hybrid, a lot of them haven’t heard of the Prius C,” Ayers said. “But after they take it for a ride and find out that it gets 53 miles per gallon, they often realize it’s the perfect car for them, especially if they do a lot commuting around Seattle, Tacoma and the entire Puget Sound area. Driving the Prius C makes gas prices a little less painful.”

And the fact that the Prius C starts at just under $19,000 doesn't hurt either.

According to the New York Times article, the Consumer Report ranking was based on “800,000 people submitting information on 1.2 million vehicles from the 2010 to 2012 model years.”

Come to Burien Toyota and Scion to see why Toyotas and Scions were named the most reliable cars and why the Toyota Prius C was named the best overall car by Consumer Report!

  1. When it comes to the reliability of the vehicle I really don’t have any doubt in Toyota products. The performance and styling of the vehicle is great as well.
