The Sequoia has a potential lifespan close to 300,000 miles.
With vehicle prices still at record-high levels, drivers are holding onto their older cars longer than ever. A recent study from iSeeCars took a deep dive into the high-mileage car market, surveying over two million mainstream vehicles going back 20 years to see which brands and models last the longest. In this instance, mainstream means a model sold for at least 10 of those years. And one automaker stands above the rest.
That company is Toyota, though it likely comes as no surprise. The Japanese automaker has earned a reputation for longevity over the course of many decades, and this study helps explain why. In a ranking of the top 20 vehicles for the longest potential lifespan, Toyota holds no less than half of the spots. It’s far ahead of second-place Honda, landing three vehicles on the list. Ford, GMC, and Chevrolet are tied for third with two vehicles each. Nissan just makes the cut with one vehicle, the slow-selling Titan which could end production soon.
