  • Environmental Impact: A longer-lasting vehicle means fewer resources used in manufacturing replacements.
  • Reliability: Understanding typical lifespans helps you plan maintenance and avoid breakdown surprises.
  • Resale Value: Models known for longevity typically retain better resale values.

Important Note

Please note these lifespan averages are guidelines, and factors like emissions and outstanding finance can affect a vehicle's roadworthiness before or after the estimated mileage. Always get a full vehicle check before purchasing.
