Are Electric Cars Reliable?

Electric car reliability is a bit of a mixed bag, and there's a reason for that. Jake Fisher, senior director of auto testing at Consumer Reports, explains: Most electric cars today are being manufactured by either legacy automakers that are new to EV technology, or by companies like Rivian that are new to making cars. It’s not surprising that they’re having growing pains and need some time to work out the bugs.

Steven Elek, who leads the auto data analytics program at Consumer Reports, has this to say about Tesla EVs: “While Tesla’s EV components are generally reliable, the company continues to struggle with the build quality of its vehicles. Tesla powertrains are now pretty solid for the most part, but Tesla owners report a lot of build quality issues including irregular paint, broken trim, door handles that don’t work, and trunks that don’t close. All of these pull down the brand’s reliability score.
