Hit 100,000 Miles

I just hit the 100,000 mile mark today in my 22 SEL Hybrid. This car has been amazing! I’m still on the same set of tires which are wearing evenly and just about at the bars. I had a small valve cover gasket leak that was covered under warranty at 50k with no issues. No other problems at all! I really love this car.

How did you manage to drive 100,000 miles in just 2 years

Actually, I’ve had the car for around 3 years. Got it brand new in September 2021, it’s a 2022 model. I do outside sales, which involves a lot of driving

That’s awesome! I have a 23 and I haven’t even reached 10k yet but I’m getting closer

I got my 23 in March with 6k miles. It’s now at 38k with no issues

Sweet! Any problems? What do you like or dislike

The only issue was the leaking valve cover gasket which was covered under warranty. My biggest dislike is the seat. I’m 6’3” and it’s a bit uncomfortable for long drives but that’s not a big deal. I just have to shift around a bit. I love the adaptive cruise control and lane assist. Compared to my last car, a Honda, this one is way better. It has plenty of power and gets good mileage. In summer, I get close to 38.5mpg

That’s interesting! Just 2 inches makes such a difference. I’m 6’1” and find the seats really comfortable

Same here, I’m 6 feet and I feel good too

@AccentAddict
Good to know. I just got a hybrid 22 with 36k miles and I’m really enjoying it. Thanks for sharing

@AccentAddict
I wonder if they changed the seats in the 24’s. My wife has a 24 and I find the seat pretty comfy at 6’5

Not sure about that. The seats aren’t bad but on days when I drive 300 miles, I really feel the discomfort. Mainly with the lumbar support. My old Honda let me adjust the lumbar in more ways. The SEL only allows movement in and out, making it hard to find the right position on my back

Sounds like it’s time to think about trading in

Wow, that’s a lot of miles in just a couple of years. What have you been up to

It’s actually 3 years. The 2022 got released in 2021

That’s true. Still a ton of miles. That’s about 100 miles every single day for 3 years straight

@Hart
Yeah haha. I’ve had my 2024 for a year and I only have about 11k

Wow, awesome mileage. Do you usually drive in eco or smart mode? Any tips

I always use ECO mode. I think the trick is not to drive too fast. I noticed I started getting better mileage after I hit 80K

These cars are fantastic. They do it all. Great mileage and lots of features. I also love the assisted cruise control. They handle well on any kind of road, even gravel. Ours is a plug-in hybrid and we are really satisfied. Good to know they last
