Every year, more and more car models appear that promise better fuel economy, more technology, and safety. However, some of them, unfortunately, do not live up to expectations, so it is better to avoid them.
Buying a car can have a significant impact on your budget, so you need to choose not only technologically advanced and beautiful, but also reliable models that will serve you for many years. JD Power has shared a selection of cars that are definitely not worth spending money on in 2024.
Many drivers choose a car based solely on the value for money. However, one of the most important factors to consider is reliability and durability.
