Long-Termers
Whenever a new car is released, opinions are divided as to whether it will be reliable in the long run – or suffer a glut of technical problems once its odometer reaches a higher mileage. We perform long-term tests for a year/20 000 km on selected vehicles in CAR’s test vehicle fleet and at the end of the period, we publish a detailed test summary with a log of the issues we encountered as well as running costs.
