Hi I am probably going to buy a 2002 Elantra for use as a taxi. I will be driving it myself with possibly one other carefully chosen person. My question is ... are these cars capable of getting up to 300000k to 400000k before they are finished. I realize of course there would be many repairs along the way as I have 15 years in the taxi business with mutiple vehicles. I have been using 6 cylinder gm junk until now and am searching for a high quality, durable 4cylinder with enough room inside. The dealer I am working with has 4 to choose from starting as low as 72k in milage. Also, are they quite fuel efficient? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

 

If you run them right than they will last that long easily.
