These are the cars most likely to make it to 250,000 miles

Though many of us are hopelessly afflicted with a car-buying addiction, most people try to keep their vehicles for as long as possible. That makes longevity and reliability a top concern, but we’re guessing that even diehard cheapskates start considering a new car before 250,000 miles. Several models make it to that mark, however, and iSeeCars’ latest study found that some models are much more likely to stand the test of time than others.

iSeeCars looked at more than 260 million cars sold from 2012 to 2022. The firm built a model using the average expected odometer reading for each year of the vehicles’ lives. Then it used that to calculate a percentage likelihood that a vehicle lasts for a quarter-million miles. The overall average likelihood that a vehicle will last that long: 11.8%.

Toyota and Honda made the longevity list, as expected, but there are several pickup trucks. The 10 most likely vehicles to make it to 250,000 miles:

• Toyota 4Runner: 41% chance of making it

• Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD: 41.3%

• GMC Sierra 2500HD: 41.3%

• Toyota Tacoma: 41.7%

• Honda Pilot: 42.7%

• Ford F-250 Super Duty: 43.6%

• Toyota Sequoia: 47.1%

• Toyota Tundra: 47.9%

• Toyota Land Cruiser: 47.9%

• Ford F-350 Super Duty: 49.1%
