Hyundai Reliability
It wasn’t always the case, but Hyundai has enjoyed a reputation for reliability for at least a decade. Having been blighted by widely reported dependability issues in the 90s, the South Korean brand has worked hard to reverse that reputation and reliability surveys consistently prove that work to have been effective. In 2011 and 2013 Which? named Hyundai the most reliable car brand on the market and it typically does pretty well in similar polls.
Our own recent study, which analysed 47,000 warranty policies over a two and half year period, is less positive however, placing Hyundai 21st in a field of 33 car manufacturers. Hardly world beating.
Nonetheless, looking at individual models, the feedback is generally positive. The Reliability Index currently rates the Hyundai Getz its 4th most reliable car, with the i10 (6th) and i20 (8th) also making the top 10.
