The car brands with the cheapest maintenance costs include Tesla, Buick and Toyota.
A Tesla may be your best choice if you want to save cash on maintenance and repairs over a vehicle's lifetime. A new study from the nonprofit outlet Consumer Reports found that Elon Musk's electric vehicles cost less to maintain over a 10-year period than cars from any other brand. Tesla owners typically spent just $4,035 over a decade, Consumer Reports found. That's an average of $403.50 per year.
Consumer Reports cautions that the early ownership costs are impacted by warranties. Here's the full ranking, arranged by 10-year maintenance and repair costs: Brand 5-year costs 10-year costs 1. Tesla $580 $4,035 2. Buick $900 $4,900 3. Toyota $1,125 $4,900 4. Lincoln $940 $5,040 5. Ford $1,100 $5,400 6. Chevrolet $1,200 $5,550 7. Hyundai $1,140 $5,640 8. Nissan $1,300 $5,700 9. Mazda $1,400 $5,800 10. Honda $1,435 $5,835 11. Kia $1,450 $5,850 12. Dodge $1,200 $6,400 13.
