not the same at all... so i was looking at the report from the other CR thread on reliability definition here: https://www.motori.news/le-auto-piu-...rts-28230.html

And you have to take into consideration that it is a different market - for instance in the UK, Volvo sells completely different set of engines than in the USA. Infotainment might be also different.
As someone asked about Honda, they are having issues with some of their latest engines, they used to be #1 in these surveys... most Suzuki's have small NA engines, and are generally rated really well in all surveys around the Europe.

Still I'm really shocked that Alfa Romeo was ranked so highly. I was really interested in the Gulia until half of the reviews I read indicated that the test cars suffered from a myriad of odd problems.

Were you trying to make a point by saying "the four models represented"? See this is why I don't like CR. Infiniti doesn't have a huge lineup, so the difference in reliability isn't likely to be large between their most- and least-reliable cars. The average reader of this article, however, probably doesn't have access to the information saying which 4 are included, etc. I can't seem to find it myself. Maybe I need to pay to see that.

well this chart is only up to 3 years (we dont have overall chart or chart for over 3 years), and also consider most of their sales as for Mito and Giulietta, cars that are very old, not sold in the US... plus engines for sale in UK are likely 95% diesels. In general, Alfa's are known for their reliability issues in Europe as well.

Looking at these results. There are 18 brands that are more reliable than any American brand where Ford finally shows up. Cadillac at 32 average reliability is pretty scary. Lincoln at 43, Buick at 44, Genesis at 52 which I expected to be closer to the 70's. Honda at 50 (ouch) No data available to interpret the results from CR, so that is a drawback. It is scary having any of the American brands on the survey. Interestingly. Volvo is now mostly made in China, and they are at the absolute bottom of the list. i would expected Nissan to do a lot better.
