A widely-respected annual survey of car owners in the United Kingdom has found that Hyundai is the country’s most reliable car brand.
The 2018 J.D. Power UK Vehicle Dependability Study is based on responses from 13,536 owners of new vehicles registered from February 2015 through February 2017 – a huge sample size that ensures its results are both highly accurate and influential across the automotive industry.
The survey, which measures issues experienced during the past 12 months by the original owners of vehicles in the UK after 12-36 months of ownership, found that Hyundai achieved the least faults per 100 vehicles.
The survey also revealed the most dependable cars in each segment of the market, with the Hyundai i10 named as the most reliable city car. The Hyundai i20 was a runner-up in the small car category, the Hyundai i30 was a runner-up in the compact car category and the Hyundai Tucson was a runner-up in the compact SUV category.
Now in its fourth year, the study examined 177 problem symptoms across eight categories: vehicle exterior; driving experience; features/controls/displays (FCD); audio/communication/entertainment/navigation (ACEN); seats; heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC); vehicle interior; and engine and transmission.
