How many miles can a car go without stopping?

Answer by  sammy0415 (274)

This would depend entirely on what kind of car you had. Most 6 cylinder engines can sustain an average of 250,000 miles before they quit. However, a 4 cylinder engine averages about 200,000. An 8 cylinder can go beyond 250,000.

This depends on the make, model and age of the car, as well as how much gas the tank holds, plus how much gas is in the tank at the time. Other factors such as tire pressure and running the A/C can affect this outcome.

The miles a car can go without stopping depends on the size of the gas tank and the habits of the driver. Fuel-efficient driving practices such as not using the air conditioner (or having the windows down) and not speeding will make it go further. Standard tanks generally take you 400-600 miles.

That would be entirely dependent on how large the fuel cell is and how much fuel is in the tank when you start, but less than 500 miles on average.
