At what mileage do domestic cars generally start experiencing problems?

Generally, the total lifespan mileage of domestic cars ranges between 200,000 to 300,000 kilometers. Impact of driver behavior on car lifespan: The specific lifespan varies depending on each manufacturer's conditions and the type of engine used. The actual lifespan also differs from person to person due to varying driving habits. Some drivers frequently drive at high gears with low speeds, which significantly impacts the engine's lifespan. Impact of driving conditions on car lifespan: The road conditions on which the vehicle is frequently driven also affect its lifespan. For example, two identical cars driven by the same person—one frequently driven on rough, muddy roads and the other on smooth concrete roads—will result in the first car having a shorter lifespan than the second.

I've driven several domestic cars, like Geely and BYD, and noticed they start having minor issues around 50,000 kilometers, such as interior rattles or wiper wear. This depends on maintenance—if you regularly change the oil and check the brakes, they can still run smoothly beyond 100,000 kilometers. Some models, like Great Wall pickups, can go up to 150,000 kilometers before major problems arise, such as clutch wear. Overall, the quality of domestic cars has improved significantly and they're no longer as prone to breakdowns as before. I recommend choosing reputable brands and keeping detailed maintenance records—this way, hitting 200,000 kilometers isn't out of the question.

As a young person, I've used the Lynk & Co brand of domestic cars. At around 80,000 kilometers, there were some minor electronic glitches, like navigation failure. But actually, many new domestic cars are quite durable now. With proper maintenance, they can basically run trouble-free within 120,000 kilometers. The key lies in driving habits - avoid frequent racing or driving on rough roads, and the car can last longer. My friend's domestic new energy vehicle has run 100,000 kilometers and still looks brand new, proving how fast the technology is advancing. Maintenance isn't expensive, just check the manual yourself.

From the experience of the older generation, domestic cars have improved significantly, but oil leaks or suspension issues after 50,000 kilometers cannot be ruled out. I tend to drive slowly and maintain the car diligently, so it can last until 100,000-120,000 kilometers before needing major repairs. Choosing well-known brands like Changan or Chery offers better reliability.
