Which concern produces the best cars in the world? The question is interesting. And there is an answer to it. Although, of course, cars are a topic in which tastes play a decisive role. Someone likes models of only a certain brand, and he makes a choice exclusively in their favor, and despite the fact that another concern produces more functional cars. So everything is relative. But there is a generally accepted opinion, and here it is worth telling about it.

Reliability

First of all, I would like to say that the best cars in the world are those cars that are distinguished by solid build quality and reliability. It is on these parameters that it is recommended to pay attention when choosing a model. And before talking about the best cars in the world, we need to talk about those models that are their complete opposite.

The most unreliable car is the Citroen XM, which was produced for six years (from 1994 to 2000). Of course, repairs are inexpensive, but this car breaks down more often than it drives. Perhaps that is why this model is notfound popularity in Russia. In second place is the Range Rover. Let it be powerful, dynamic, comfortable, but only the owners of this SUV have to go to the service, as if to work. True, the representatives of the new generation have become better than their predecessors - more reliable.

The famous sports Porsche 911 (996 body) is also the cause of headaches for its owners. Because the average cost of a visit to the service is approximately 1,160 pounds. So a big name is not always an indicator of quality.

Whose choice to make?

And now - about the best cars in the world. In terms of reliability, one of the most solid models was the Honda HR-V. Also, its full-fledged competitors are such cars as Toyota Aygo, Suzuki Alto and Vauxhall (Opel) Agila. True, it is very difficult to find them on the Russian market.

But the most reliable car of all existing cars "aged" many critics recognized Mitsubishi Lancer release 2005-2008. By the way! This is the most stolen foreign car in the entire Russian Federation. Apparently, criminals know about reliable cars.

Asian Representatives

Now it is worth voicing the TOP of the best cars in the world by mileage, produced in Asian countries. This rating definitely includes the Subaru Impreza. A car that many people overlook. This is a truly reliable machine in the compact class. Yes, it costs more than the models of its competitors. But she has a turbine, plus four-wheel drive. And this is significantadvantage.

Honda Civic also often finds itself in various ratings. Since 2002, this machine has been gaining popularity due to its reliability. Toyota Corolla is also a solid car. Economical, popular, high quality. Critics advise making a choice in favor of representatives of the first two generations. If you buy one of these cars, you can forget about the serious problems associated with car breakdowns for a long time.

Kia Rio is also in the TOP. This machine is a direct competitor to all of the above models. She is not only good in many ways. This car is inexpensive and very economical. Hyundai Accent follows Rio in the TOPs. Both machines are low-powered and outwardly look like each other. But economical. But further down the ranking compete Honda Accord and Hyundai Sonata. But no matter how many disputes about them, each model still finds its buyer.

German cars

If you study the ratings called “10 best cars in the world”, then among the names there will absolutely be at least two German cars. And you don't even need to explain why. Everyone knows that German manufacturers produce the best models. Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Opel, Porsche - these concerns develop really high-quality cars. And it is not surprising that the question: “What is the best brand of car in the world?” - most critics, specialists, experts and just amateurs respond with one of the above names.

Now in Germany they produce models of any category. So, for example, in the small class, the Mercedes A-Klasse is considered the absolute leader. Strict lines, classic proportions, dynamic body, maximum comfort - all this and much more is characteristic of this compact car.

Dynamic Representatives

One of the most affordable and dynamic cars recognized Audi A4. In addition, it is safe and reliable - crash tests have shown that in the event of a collision, the likelihood of injury to passengers and the driver is minimal.

Mercedes-Maybach S600 is also out of competition. Many people claim that this is the best car in the world! And it's hard to disagree with that. Roomy trunk, exquisite finishes, a huge number of innovative solutions, a comfortable chassis, a safe, durable body and, of course, impeccable performance. The above is enough to understand why this car is in the TOP 10 of the best cars in the world.

Cheapest business class

Continuing to talk about the best brands of cars in the world, it is impossible not to touch the attention of the concern "Volkswagen". After all, it was this company that developed and released a model that last year, 2015, was recognized as the car of the year in Europe. And this is a Volkswagen Passat. Most economical business class.

This model is good for everyone. Appearance, interior, technical characteristics. But its main advantage is economy. ToThis issue was taken very seriously during the development process. They managed to achieve that the engine consumed only 5 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers on the highway. In the city, the flow rate is in the range from 6 to 9 liters. It all depends on the driving style of the driver.

Besides, “Volkswagen” received a fairly wide range of power units. There is a two-liter TDI - economical, but powerful. Two options are offered - either 150 or 190 hp. With. There is also a BiTDI motor. The volume is two liters, and the power is 240 liters. With. What about the price? This car costs about 36 thousand dollars. Very modest price tag for a German business class.

Popular Mechanics Version: Top Five Leaders

Popular Mechanics is a popular science magazine. Not so long ago (namely, in 2014), they published their rating of the best cars. In first place was the Mazda 6 for $21,675. Experts considered it expressive, economical and safe, setting new standards in dynamism and handling. Second place went to the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray for $52,000. Experts assure that the car could be put in the first place. Because getting such a good sports car for such a low price is amazing. In addition, the machine is very productive, which is good news.

In third place is the Nissan Versa Note for $14,780. Small, compact, sporty - if not a sports car. In fourth place is the Dodge Ram Heavy Duty. The best full-size pickup that can withstand any daily stress and work.

And fifth place went to the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. If not for the cost of $ 94,000, then the Stuttgart novelty of 2014 would have been in the lead. There are a lot of technical and innovative surprises in this car, which is why it is recognized as one of the best.

Cars that close the rating

Sixth place was given by Popular Mechanics experts to Lexus IS models for 36-42 thousand dollars. Aggressive looks, multiple suspension options and a high-performance engine are its main features.

In seventh place is the Jaguar F-Type worth 69-92 thousand dollars. A true sports car that successfully combines excellent driving performance, instant response to any movement of the driver and everyday comfort.

Eighth place was given to the Jeep Cherokee. Probably due to its price, for which to buy such a model, in principle, is not so bad. This car will cost 24-29 thousand dollars.

In ninth place is the Ford Fiesta ST. It costs 22 thousand dollars. In this car, everything pleases - from acceleration (less than 7 seconds to hundreds) and ending with performance. The motor of this model provides 1/5 more power, unlike previous versions! By the way, it is worth noting that in the past, 2015, the Ford concern became the best brand in the world. And this is not surprising, because Ford cars have everything - style, comfort, efficiency, environmental friendliness, power, speed,dynamics and modest price.
