You’ve gotten your money’s worth and it no longer owes you anything. Each mile tacked onto the car after the 200,000-mile point is a bonus. Not all cars make it to 200,000 miles.

Most cars die long before they reach this vaunted threshold. However, for a select few well-made vehicles, the 200,000 mile mark is attainable. Here are the 10 cars most likely to join the 200K Club, according to various automotive authorities such as Consumer Reports, Popular Mechanics, Auto Trader and Forbes magazine.

Especially given the fact that the Corolla has outstanding fuel economy at 32 miles per gallon, an impressive 43 miles per gallon when driving on highways. As Toyota frequently likes to point out, the rear seat in the Corolla is one of the roomiest in the small car category. However, what owners of this vehicle appreciate most about the Corolla is the fact that they last for eons. Many of these cars are still on the road after 20 years. Impressive!

5. Honda CR-V

This vehicle is one that can easily rack up 200,000 miles and keep going. A 185 horsepower, 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine might not be anything to brag about in terms of power, but 24 miles per gallon fuel efficiency is pretty impressive for any SUV – large or compact.

The CR-V’s handling is responsive and secure, even when traveling over uneven terrain. The engine, while lacking in oomph, is nevertheless quiet and functional. The rear seats are roomy and can be folded into the floor for additional room. A rear-view camera as a standard feature is a nice touch, and there’s no arguing with how long these vehicles can (and often do) last. A CR-V is the kind of vehicle you can expect to get 200,000 miles out of.

The Toyota Prius has come a long way. There was a time when there were legitimate questions about the gas/electric hybrid car. The batteries in the Prius were known to die, leaving owners on the hook for an expensive replacement part. However, 10 years of fine tuning on the part of Toyota have radically improved the Prius – to the point where this hybrid car is now known to be firmly in the 200,000-mile club with many other Toyota models.

Not only does the newest version of the Prius look more stylish, but it also drives better and is more reliable than previous models. An upgraded engine, lighter hybrid components, and more durable battery cells mean that the new Prius achieves ten percent better mileage than previous models. The Prius is still the sensible and cost efficient car that it has always been. With battery technology only improving, future versions of the Prius can be expected to be even more reliable and last longer still.

2. Honda Civic
