Quick summary

Total: 175 cars

The 2016 Rolls Royce Dawn shows a significantly lower overall defect rate compared to the average car of the same year, with just 19 defects per 100 vehicles, contrasting sharply with the average of 151 defects. The model stands out positively in several key areas, particularly in brakes and steering, where it recorded near-zero defects, far better than the averages of 77% and 8% respectively. Additionally, visibility and lights and electrics defects were nearly absent in the Dawn, offering a remarkable performance compared to typical vehicles. However, the data indicates a higher defect rate in the 0–31,000 miles segment, though this is less pronounced in higher mileage brackets, suggesting that early-life issues are less common in this model as it ages. Overall, the Dawn presents an impressive reliability profile relative to its peers.
