most reliable cars australia 2023

Hunting for the most reliable cars in Australia in 2023? The usual suspects top the charts: Toyota’s Corolla, Camry and RAV4 are renowned for bulletproof drivetrains, low running costs and stubbornly strong resale. Mazda’s 3 and CX-5 are similarly dependable with tidy cabins, while Subaru’s Forester and Outback just get on with the job, rain or shine. If you fancy something posh, Lexus (think ES and NX) is a safe bet for long-haul dependability and quiet refinement. As ever, the real trick is buying the car in front of you: full service history, independent inspection, and no mystery noises doing jazz in the sump. Shopping used? Cast an eye over Tradingpost for well-kept examples and let someone else wear the new-car depreciation.
