Teslas Are More Likely To Hit 250,000 Miles Than Almost Every Car Brand

  • Tesla ranks in the top one-fifth of automakers with cars most likely to hit 250,000 or more miles.
  • The brand ties with GMC just under the industry average of 4.8%, making them the highest-ranking domestic brands on the list.
  • This bodes well for the idea of EV longevity, potentially helping to dispel concerns over long-term reliability and roadworthiness.

The pitch for electric cars has always been a cleaner, cheaper way to travel. It just so happens to be a bit more fun to stomp the accelerator pedal thanks to instant torque. EVs also have another advantage in that they may have a better shot at lasting over 250,000 miles than many gas vehicles, a new study shows.
