Eight Cars Outperform the Camry in 2026 Reliability Rankings

Two reliability surveys — Consumer Reports and JD Power — cite eight non‑Camry models as more dependable than the Camry in 2026, including the Corolla, Crown, Kicks, Murano, Crosstrek, Corolla Cross, Avalon, and Impreza. Corolla tops CR’s Camry comparison (76 vs 74), while JD Power highlights strong three‑year dependability for several of these models (e.g., Avalon scoring highly) with notes on price and trims for compact sedans and SUVs. The list excludes pickups, luxury, and sports cars.
