That’s actually a good way to measure for similar cars. But still a luxury car is obviously more expensive to repair, and that does not make it unreliable.

I hear what you’re saying, and I don’t know what else they might do for the formula. I just knew from somewhere back in my head that that’s the basic way they do it

Turns out than when the tests are mandatory safety checks performed by a third party, a study shows VW is the clear winner.

Here Tesla is claimed to be the cheapest to maintain, but they also have the worst failure rate of any brand here in Denmark at similar safety checks as in Germany. Although the failure rate is even higher here with 33% which used to be completely unheard of.
So cheap maintenance does not mean high reliability. 😋

That’s not a great method either. Safety is not reliability
