Is it normal for a car to run 10,000 kilometers a year?
2 Answers
It is normal for a car to run 10,000 kilometers a year. Notes: As a mechanical product, it is very normal for a car to run 10,000 kilometers a year. If it is parked for a long time without being driven, the internal parts of the car will age, which can easily lead to some malfunctions. The car may even develop abnormal noises, and the battery power will gradually deplete. Prolonged parking may result in the car failing to start. Maintenance: The first year of a new car is the break-in period. During this time, avoid aggressive driving and ensure timely maintenance of the car.
Driving 10,000 kilometers a year is completely normal. Based on my own driving experience, if you're an average car owner who commutes daily or occasionally goes on trips, this mileage is absolutely within the normal range. On average, driving about 30 kilometers a day can easily reach this figure, especially in big cities where many people's round-trip commutes add up to tens of kilometers, naturally accumulating to 10,000 kilometers over a year. The key lies in vehicle maintenance—regular oil changes and checking tire wear are crucial to prevent minor issues from turning into major problems. Cars are designed to be driven, and with proper maintenance, even reaching 20,000 kilometers isn't a big deal. Don't worry about the car breaking down; the key is how you use and protect it.
