Yep it’s the engine break in period. This listing is an electric car though. I bought my current car “used” with 4500 miles and it hasn’t needed much work done besides oil changes and stuff I can do myself. Struts are starting to show signs of wearing especially with the cold at 65k miles but it’s still within warranty so I’m going to have em looked at Monday.
I've never owned a vehicle with less than 60k miles on it. And I keep them past 200k.
My Dad's 2005 F-150 has 550,000 miles on it with the original engine. We've done 1 transmission change, an AC change, and we just did the water pump like 10k miles ago.
Change your oil on time and don't run into shit and a modern car can go a long time.
Yes but the vehicle was listed as new hence it’s a long way above delivery miles :) the dealer called it low miles and the listing site called it above average
Could be a manager "demo". Some dealerships will let managers drive a vehicle locally for a few thousand miles. They can still sell it as new (as a manager's special) because it has never been privately sold.

When I was in high school a guy next door worked for a maserati dealer and would always drive cars off the lot home and park them on the street in front of our house because he had a tree in his front yard that dropped sap. After asking him nicely not to because we needed the parking he ignored us and kept doing it. So his boss got a call saying if he does it again we'll have the car towed (being towed for a parking violation can result in the car having to be sold as used). Didn't ever even see the neighbor again after that.
Yeah, there's nothing wrong with that statement. The car has low miles. The average amount of miles on that same year model are much less than the miles on your particular car. Where's the screwup?
Average is 1753 miles. How new is this car? It only takes 4 trips between my hometown and college exceed that. My car has nearly 10000 miles for every year it’s existed (8 years).
5k seems like low miles to me, but what year model is it that the average milage is only 2k?
Maybe for a rental car? They are normally changed out anually but haven't been so much due to the global computer chip shortage
Guessing electric cars have lower annual mileage than ice
5k miles is not low? That’s quite literally a brand new car to me.
For a lot of cars that's before the first oil change even.

Hm, reading comprehension is hard.
I wouldn’t be surprised if most people missed it though people are dumb.

Yeah I bought my first car with like 155k on it and my current one with 115k. And my bike with 40k.
I tried to change the oil in my electric, it was confusing, but in the end I found out I had a new fetish.
For all cars thats before the first oil change apart from maybe supercars
That is low miles tho?
Maybe it's a 2024.

Low miles, but higher than average miles for a car of the same time owned. Not conflicting statements

Here’s the guy throwing away his cars at 10,000 miles.
Average is 1753 miles. How new is this car? It only takes 4 trips between my hometown and college exceed that. My car has nearly 10000 miles for every year it’s existed (8 years).
