What is the maximum mileage a Mitsubishi Outlander can reach? Or what is the most you have seen on one?

 

The wifes 14 has gone 390-400 ish. My 16 with engine mods...... Uh,,,,, not so much.
I still average mid to high 20 mpg's while on interstate speeds. 75-80+.
The 14 dose around high 20's to 32 ish. the 16 will get up and boogie tho pretty damn quick. Max I've had it up to is 120+ish (Uhg Hum ah eh,,,,,,, legal controlled environment of course) and it was "showing" 17 mpg.
For comparison, my 13 Hyundai turbo would pull 27 mpg at 120mph over a 10 mile stretch in nowhere NM. Miss that car, but NOT the tickets. for a crossover ute, this thing in stock or modded trim isn't bad.

 

Thank you I meant how many miles it can reach on the odometer like 200k 250k 300K+

 

The reason the Japanese manufacturers took a big section of the American market was due to decreased tolerances and reinforcing areas and systems known to fail

That said, the Outlander should go a million miles

I think the problem with averaging life expectancy goes hand in hand with depreciation, as cars are traded in and sold down market to owners with a limited financial means, this in turn means less preventive maintenance leaving mechanical systems to fend for themselves.

A ruptured hose can lead to overheating and even if it only warps the head by a fraction of a tolerance, these little incidents add up. So even fixing the failures will result in a decrease life span.

Driving patterns also factor into this thinking, less responsible driving = little damages that affect the cooling efficiency, under carriage components, hard driving on old depleted oil, etc.

Even the best engineering cannot prevent failure from neglect, it can mitigate the effects but eventually it takes a toll

My personal experience is that while sticking to the maint schedule, when i do the tasks, the condition of the parts being replaced is very good and not on the edge of failure, so I think mine is going to last pretty much forever, knock on wood - even through my blunders

So if you're able to get some data on this it would be great to know, as I don't put a lot of miles on mine anyway.

Cheers

 

Engines and transmissions can be rebuilt, but they cost money. I suppose the answer to your question is when is it still worth it. Cars can be maintained or restored indefinitely as long as there are availability of parts. However, there will come a point when I personally won't want to throw money into a car. I imagine that time comes at the very least 10 years into it's life, but it will depend on how much I drive. I don't plan on keeping a car much more than in the 100's, but I'm sure it could keep going. It's all the other stuff that starts to annoyingly break. Really hard to answer your question without parameters.
