How many miles can a Hyundai Elantra last?

I want to buy a used Hyundai Elantra but need to make sure it’s a worthwhile investment. Will it last me for a while?

A well-maintained
Hyundai Elantra
will likely last over 150,000 miles.
A Hyundai Elantra should be able to stay on the road for at least 150,000 miles and could be expected to make it to 200,000 or even 250,000 miles without any serious repairs. That’s a lifespan of 10 to 15 years for the average driver.
Of course, the most significant factor in determining how long an Elantra will last is how well it’s cared for. Your car will be more likely to hit that 250k-mile mark if you:
  • Schedule inspections to catch unexpected issues before they can become costly
    repairs
  • Keep the car clean, both inside and out
  • Drive carefully to avoid accidents and excess wear and tear on the engine.
