Entre los 85 vehículos del año-modelo 2021 que seguimos, ocupa el puesto 77 de 85 por quejas al año (1 = menos quejas). Frente a otros modelos Toyota, su tasa es un 156 % mayor; frente a otros SUV compactos, es un 46 % mayor.
Las cifras se normalizan por tiempo en circulación, no por ventas: un modelo popular genera más reportes que uno raro, y las quejas no se verifican una por una. Cómo contamos
