JD Power, the industry standard when seeking quality ratings, ranks the Toyota Prius, Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic as best in dependability. Dependability is based off of the number of problems per vehicle in a 3 year period after the purchase. Other 4 cylinder cars like the Mazda Miata, Honda S2000, Toyota RAV 4 and Honda CR-V score best in their categories.
