Most Reliable New Sedans You Can Buy

These sedans are all recommended by CR. That means they scored well in our road tests, which comprise more than 50 objective and subjective evaluations. On top of that, they have above- or well-above-average reliability. All of these come standard with key active safety equipment: automatic emergency braking (AEB), AEB that works at highway speeds, blind spot warning (BSW), and rear cross traffic warning (RCTW), unless otherwise noted. They also performed well in government and insurance industry crash tests if they were tested.

We’ve listed them in order of their Overall Score, which is a combination of all those factors. Some of these models have our Green Choice designation, which highlights the vehicles with the cleanest emissions.
