The Center for Experimentation and Road Safety (CESVI Brasil), through the Vehicle Maintenance Index (IMV), pointed out which cars have the highest maintenance costs. The maximum score is 60 points, and the higher it is, the more difficult and expensive the repairs, replacements and whatever else is necessary.
