What the reliability data tells us
- Most Chinese brands haven't been on Qatari roads more than five years, so age-normalized survival uses a tighter 3-plus year band here (vs 5-plus for the other buckets). The numbers reflect early-life durability, not multi-decade longevity.
- MG dominates the middle of the table. Four or five MG nameplates have accumulated enough road time to fit the model — the brand has earned secondary-market acceptance faster than its rivals.
- Chery Tiggo and Geely Coolray lead on mileage resilience. Buyers don't penalize their prices much for high mileage, which is the market's slow vote of confidence.
- Brand index sits at 6.5 to 7.5 for every entry. There's no consensus reliability winner yet — most Chinese brands score similarly because the road-time data hasn't differentiated them.
- Expect this leaderboard to shift annually. The 8-to-10-year mark that dominates the other buckets doesn't exist in the Chinese data yet, so today's ranking is essentially a projection from early road life.
These rankings are generated by machine-learning models trained on publicly available Qatar used-car listings. The order shown may be partially or fully wrong — RaqamQatar does not have the final word on what actually depreciates fastest or what is truly reliable. We track market behaviour, not vehicle quality directly. Sample size, listing biases, regional preferences, and brand-new market entrants all shape the numbers you see here. Treat this as one data point alongside dealer information, real-world reviews, and your own inspection — not as the only factor in your buying decision.
