Quick summary

Total: 21,888 cars

The 2017 Toyota Aygo has a slightly higher overall defect rate of 135 defects per 100 vehicles compared to the average of 134 defects per 100 vehicles, indicating a marginally worse performance. Notably, the Aygo excels in categories such as Steering, Lights & Electrics, and Body/Structure, with defect rates significantly lower than the average. However, it shows a concerning trend in the Wheels, Suspensions & Axles category, where its defect rate is notably higher than average at 169 defects per 100 vehicles. Mileage-related data suggests that defect rates increase with higher mileage, but the Aygo remains competitive in lower mileage segments. Overall, while the Aygo performs well in several key areas, attention should be given to its wheel and suspension issues.
