What is Predicted Reliability Rating?

The luxury cars we’ve listed here are rated with 4.5-5 out of five stars by J.D. Power and Associates, a company known for their research on car ratings.  On the topic of reliability and dependability, the research company pooled and analyzed data from issues reported by luxury car owners. To be specific, their car ratings are measured by analyzing problems on:

  • Features and controls
  • Engine and transmission
  • Entertainment and navigation
  • Heating and cooling
  • Overall driving experience reported by owners.

While a Porsche is always a great thing, the 2017 Porsche 911 got revamped for reliability — taking it to the next level. The classic luxury car got a refresh this year: added engine power and refining touches. Although the price tag is now a little higher, the 911 stands as a solid long-term investment with its 4.5/5 predicted reliability rating. Without a doubt, one can expect powerful acceleration capability with any of the three available engine options at the price of $89,400.

The four-door luxury car is a stunning and reliable beast rated as one of the most reliable luxury cars by J.D. Power and Associates with a score of 4.5/5.

  • MSRP – $40,155
  • Reliability  Rating – 4.5 out of 5

For a small luxury car, the 2017 Lexus RC casts a large shadow. Not only does it come with laudable safety stats and a 4.5/5 reliability score, it also offers a range of powerful engine selections. For a price of $40,155, you can take home a base RC possessing a 241-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, an eight-speed automatic transmission, and rear-wheel drive. In addition, higher in the hierarchy is the RC 300, boasting a horsepower of 255 and a 3.5 liter V6 engine. Finally, cranking it up a notch, with a 467-horsepower 5.0-liter V8 engine and rear-wheel drive, is the RC F, which reportedly can go from 0-60 mph in 4.3 seconds.

— Alderson Lexus (@alderson_lexus) October 11, 2017

  • MSRP – $72, 520
  • Reliability  Rating – 5 out of 5

This 386-horsepower, 4.6-liter V8 engine equipped Lexus is rated with a perfect reliability score of 5. Although it’s not the most powerful car in its class, it’s had very little problems over time, hence the perfect score. Moreover, this bad boy is a comfortable cruiser with a fuel economy of 16 city mpg and 24 highway mpg. Lastly, other fancy features you can expect are massaging rear-seats and an excellent entertainment system.

7. 2017 Lexus GS

With an aggressive stance & athletic build, the 2017 #Lexus GS is power at play! https://t.co/hsxep9ZIim pic.twitter.com/fGgdKE2rR4

— Newport Lexus (@NewportLexusCA) October 22, 2017

  • MSRP – $46,310
  • Reliability  Rating – 5 out of 5

The GS is a midsize luxury car worthy of applause for its good performance, safety technology, plush interior and perfect 5/5 reliability score. This luxury car comes in three powerful engines. The base model, the GS 200T, sports a twin-turbocharged, 241-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine.

Lexus is proving itself as a provider of reliable luxury cars! This is the third Lexus car on this list. In fact, the GS hasn’t been rated this high since 2014.

8. 2015 Audi A4

  • MSRP – $24,700
  • Reliability Rating – 4 out of 5

This one’s an oldie but goodie. This compact luxury car comes in three configurations: sedan, performance sedan, and all-road wagon. This is one of the most reliable cars in this list. The A4 is powered with a turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. Its show-offy brother, the S4, comes with a supercharged V6. Regardless of which configuration you get this car in, you’ll be happy to know that it’s going to last you a while.

9. 2015 Audi A5

  • MSRP – $41,200
  • Reliability Rating – 4 out of 5

More spiritual successor than sequel, the A5 bases itself from the same platform the Audi A4 uses. You could see it as the younger, sportier version of the A4. It comes in 2-door coupe or convertible configurations, and features either a turbocharged 4-cylinder or a superchared V6. Spring for more cash and get the RS 5 and you’ll get a monster V8 engine. The nice thing about the A5 is that it features the Quattro all-wheel drive for those rough situations.

10. 2015 BMW 2 Series

  • MSRP – $37,900
  • Reliability Rating – 4 out of 5

Launched in 2014, the 2 series is a rear-drive, 4-seat, 3-box coupe. It hearkens back to the time of the revered 2002 BMW 2 Series. It also comes as a convertible with an optional all-wheel-drive system, making it one tough puppy no matter where you drive it through.

11. 2015 Lincoln MKZ

  • MSRP – $23,300
  • Reliability Rating – 4 out of 5

Building from the Ford Fusion’s powertrains and platform, the MKZ offers a lot more room than most luxury sedans. Choose from either a 4-cylinder, a monster V6, or a gas-electric hybrid for your engine. All-wheel drive is also a viable option no matter which engine you choose. This is one of the most reliable luxury cars available in the market today.
