What is the expected lifespan of the engine in a 2018 Great Wall Steed? Should I bother buying one with over 260,000km?
Answered by CarsGuide
18 Nov 2024Engine longevity is closely linked to how well maintained it’s been. As such, there’s no definitive lifespan for a specific make and model. An engine that has been treated well and maintained correctly will easily outlast the same make and model engine that has been driven hard and missed critical servicing and upkeep.
That said, 260,000km seems like a lot of kilometres for this vehicle. Which is not to suggest it’s necessarily ready to explode, rather that you’d have to know for sure it was a pampered car with an impeccable service record for it to be a reasonable bet. But a gamble of some sort it would definitely be.
