On average, Americans drive their cars for less than 12,000 miles each year. And among the most-driven vehicles are full-size pickups and sport utility vehicles. But there is one particular model that is driven 24% further than the national average: the Chevrolet Suburban.
According to data gathered by iSeeCars, American drivers put 14,862 miles on the Chevrolet Suburban every year. One reason seen by the website is the vehicle’s 9-passenger capacity for a retail price of $50,000, plus the fact that it has only 14 mpg of gas in city driving despite weighing 5,400 pounds.
“The Suburban is known for its expansive cargo room while comfortably seating up to nine passengers, which makes it popular for large families as well as for fleet and livery use,” iSeeCars CEO Phong Ly said.
The report includes data on more than 2.3 million sales of 10-year-old cars from where it came up with a list of the 13 vehicles with the highest annual mileage in the United States. Following the Chevrolet Suburban is the GMC Yukon XL with 14,708 miles per year. Toyota’s Sequoia is at third place with an average of 14,102 miles.
Other full-size SUVs in the list are Honda Pilot (6th), Nissan Armada (8th), Ford Expedition (9th), and Cadillac Escalade ESV (10th). The bestselling Toyota Prius, meanwhile, is the only hybrid vehicle that made it to the Top 13. Rounding up the Top 13 are the Chevrolet Tahoe, GMC Yukon, Toyota Sienna, and Toyota Land Cruiser.
iSeeCars also shared a list of the top 10 vehicles among passenger cars, where the Toyota Prius emerged as leader. Also included are the Nissan Altima, Chevrolet Malibu, Honda Accord, Chevrolet Impala, Toyota Camry, Honda Civic, Volkswagen Jetta, Nissan Maxima, and Ford Taurus.
