Repairable and reliable is often counter to efficiency. The tradeoff is very hard. A car that is less efficient is much more convenient than an efficient car that regularly gets maintened.
There are very efficient and reliable cars out there too. A good reason why most taxis for about 15 years now are hybrids is because of how reliable they are.
