When it was time to get your first car, you were likely directed to buy a Toyota. Many of us had Toyotas as our first cars since they’re cost-effective, earn top-tier safety ratings, and are some of the most reliable vehicles on the road.

Did you catch the phrasing in the last sentence? They’re some of the most reliable vehicles, but not the only reliable car you can buy right now. If you’re in the market for a car that won’t make you a regular at your local repair shop or make you cringe when signing financing paperwork, let’s discuss other reliable vehicles.

Some of the cars listed may surprise you. Others might not. But, you’ll close the tab for this article a more savvy buyer.

Nissan makes a reliable little sedan and SUV

Nissan may have scaled back production of its famous little Sentra, but they haven’t changed what makes it great. Having learned from their mistakes from CVTs a few years ago, the Sentra now earns a reliability rating of 86/100 according to data from KBB, J.D. Power, and Consumer Reports.

That number may not seem huge, but it is for such a small car. Especially for the price—it starts at $21,590. That price makes it ideal for first drivers, college students, or even those who live in small cities.

However, Nissan makes an even more reliable and affordable vehicle in the form of the Murano. The refreshed SUV earned a reliability score of 91/100, has only 1 active recall, and costs just $507 per year to maintain according to RepairPal.

It starts at $40,470, so it’s not as cheap as the Sentra, but it’s a lot more affordable than most in its class.

Hyundai is clawing its way towards the top

Hyundai may have earned a bad reputation from the social media-fueled theft spree a year or two ago, but it’s experiencing a Renaissance now. The automaker and its luxury division, Genesis, have been doing wonderfully.

Hyundai’s cars are packed with features yet cost-effective, ranked among the safest vehicles to buy, and now stand among the most reliable.

The Genesis G80, for instance, has a reliability rating of 88/100, has zero active recalls, and doesn’t cost much to repair over a year’s time. Plus, it looks amazing. The Hyundai Elantra is another reliable car from South Korea, with a score of 86/100, no recalls, and an average annual repair cost of $452.

Finally, some American cars are listed

The most reliable American car was actually the Ram 1500 pickup. It scored 89/100, as long as it’s configured with the Pentastar V6 engine. For a full-sized truck, the annual average repair bill is $691, only has two recalls, and since the V6 can be put in a variety of trims, makes it a versatile buy.

Next was the Chevy Equinox, the gas-powered version, with a score of 88/100. It has the lowest estimated repair cost in its first 10 years of life at $8,929, it’s efficient and incredibly cheap. There’s an EV and hybrid version too, so drivers have more to choose from.

The Bronco Sport is up there with the best too, despite having known transmission issues. Otherwise, though, its score of 88/100 comes from its engine choices. Both the 1.5-liter three-cylinder and the 2.0-liter four-cylinder are reliable, though gutless.

The new Chevy Blazer also scored highly, especially if you opt for the V6 engine. RepairPal estimates the average annual repair cost to be around $431 and a 10-year repair estimate of $9,124, making it one of the cheapest to maintain.
