Quick summary
Total: 1,617 cars
The 2021 Nissan E-NV200 exhibits a higher overall defect rate of 98 defects per 100 vehicles, compared to the average of 79 defects per 100 for vehicles of the same year, representing a 24% increase. It shows a noticeable trend of increasing defects as mileage increases, particularly in the 62,000-93,000 mile range.

Overall, while the E-NV200 excels in some areas, it faces challenges that impact its reliability compared to similar models.
