Budget cars need to be reliable. That’s one of the main reason why you buy one. You spend a couple grand on a vehicle and that means you just want a vehicle works, provides decent comfort and doesn’t require more investments in the near future.
On that idea, Auto Guide made a top 10 most reliable cars under $25,000, based on data from Consumer Reports’ 2013 Annual Auto Survey. And while second and third place were occupied by the Honda Fit and Mazda5, the top spot was achieved by the Scion xB.
The funky box xB remains a popular choice among customers looking for a competitively priced car with loads of space. The car is powered by a 2.4-liter gasoline engine producing 158 hp and 162 lb-ft of torque, while returning 22 mpg in the city and 28 on the highway.
The basic manual transmission xB comes for $17,725 while the automatic one starts at $18,675.
