Where is this data from, and does this include all years, or just 2025/2026 models?
I was doing a bunch of research between Mazda and Toyota recently and I found out that they share engine / drive train tech. I know Mazda used to have a bad reputation, but I think it's a lot better now
Also, how is BMW in 5th? lol
BMW's current B48 and B58 engines are some or the best they've ever made in their history. They're quite reliable and make a very good amount of power. Even Toyota uses the B58 in the Supra. The ZF transmissions are also quite mature and robust. They really improved a lot.
Mazda was under the Ford umbrella for a while. That definitely contributed to the unreliable reputation.
