Some automotive brands have remained at the top of predicted reliability rankings for years, and while new vehicles<\/a> have become far more durable than they were even a few years ago, many of those top-ranked brands continue to dominate. iSeeCars<\/em><\/a> recently studied the vehicles and brands most likely to reach 250,000+ miles, but many of the top brands won\u2019t come as any surprise.<\/p>\n

Toyota<\/a> was the top-ranked brand, with a 17 percent overall chance of having vehicles reach 250,000 miles. The top seven brands:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Toyota: 17%<\/li>\n
  2. Honda<\/a>: 13\/6%<\/li>\n
  3. Ram: 11.5%<\/li>\n
  4. GMC<\/a>: 11.4%<\/li>\n
  5. Chevrolet<\/a>: 10.5%<\/li>\n
  6. Lexus<\/a>: 9.7%<\/li>\n
  7. Ford<\/a>: 9.5%<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The average vehicle on America\u2019s roads has an 8.6 percent chance of lasting a quarter-million miles or more, so those vehicles outperform the rest of the crop by notable margins. Looking at the list, it might be a little odd seeing Ram, GMC, Chevy<\/a>, and Ford mixed in with brands like Honda and Toyota, but there\u2019s a good reason for their success. The Big Three American brands sell a ton of trucks<\/a>, which scored favorably in iSeeCars<\/em>\u2019 analysis. It\u2019s worth noting that this ranking doesn\u2019t include heavy-duty models, which show a strong ability to stand the test of time<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    The Ram 3500<\/a> had a 42.6 percent chance of lasting 250,000 miles, followed by the Toyota Tundra<\/a>, Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD<\/a>, GMC Sierra 2500HD<\/a>, and Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD<\/a>. Beyond the fact that heavy-duty trucks<\/a> are built for abuse, some of those pickups\u2019 longevity is likely due to fleet management and regular maintenance that commercial owners tend to follow.<\/p>\n

    Breaking out other vehicle categories shows that SUVs hold 16 of the 30 top spots. The list also holds eight pickup trucks<\/a> and four sedans<\/a>. iSeeCars<\/em> used data from more than 402 million vehicles for this study. It analyzed odometer data at each yearly age and used a proprietary model based on those mileage numbers to estimate the longevity of vehicles and brands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
