"What's the best car?" Getting asked that question is an occupational hazard in this business. (And, yes, we realize that it's not actually hazardous, at least compared with the occupational dangers faced by, say, ironworkers who build skyscrapers or zookeepers who feed lions.) When you drive and test hundreds of cars every year—as our editorial team collectively does—it's a natural query. And our annual 10Best awards provide the answer.
Since 1983, we've been conducting this exercise: We identify the very best of what's available, not merely our favorite new models introduced for a given year. An onslaught of new or significantly redesigned contenders vies with the winners from the previous year for one of the 10 coveted spots. These days, the price cap is $110,000 (sorry, Ferrari). We gather our staff and contributors from far and wide for an intense two weeks of driving and instrumented testing, interspersed with arguing. And then we vote. The winners are those that best fulfill their intended mission, deliver value to their buyers, and spark driving joy.

No issues whatsoever with my 2019 Toyota Highlander....previously went with Honda Accords, but quality went south, and switched to a Toyota Avalon, in 2014. OUTSTANDING reliability in all of the Toyota’s.

Toyota is currently recalling 100,000 vehicles for engine failure due to metal shavings internal to the motors.
Maybe that’s why?

Yeah. I can’t trust CVT on anything bigger than a snowmobile.

Apparently, reliability is not a factor in this list.

Cadillac actually does make good cars for a change.

Toyota flushed their reliability down the toilet with their new engines.

Glad I bought one of the last Tundras with a big V-8. That engine was made for ages and is great.
