They don’t build cars like they used to. It’s true. They’re safer, more fuel efficient and more reliable than ever before. These days, most cars are just getting started when they cross the 100,000-mile mark. They may require quite a few repairs to keep going after that point, but the days of cars with six-figure mileage being on their last legs are long gone.
That said, if you’re hoping to keep a new car for 200,000 miles or more, some cars are much more likely to get you there than others. Recently, our friends at Consumer Reports published a list of the cars that its own survey data revealed are the most likely ones to make it past that 200,000-mile mark.
Now, we can’t guarantee that every single vehicle on this list is going to be completely problem-free for the next 20 years, but if you have longevity in mind, these are the ones you’re going to want to start your search with. Now let’s take a look at what made the list this year.
