Oops, I forgot to post this important milestone back when I achieved it mid-February. I went with the 100001 mile mark for the symmetry and to show my SE's high-voltage batteries are officially out of warranty.

Since this was taken I've put on another 1500 miles or so. Don't worry about the e-power, this was taken during a prolonged polar vortex period and the 10 ºF shown was probably the warmest temperature for two weeks, so the batteries were cold-soaked even parked in a garage every night and charging before departure.

My SE has since fully recovered from the cold and I'm still getting fully-charged GOM of 110+ miles.

As what I’m seeing with your experience with SE is mind bugling looks as climate in NY is not close what you experience and my SE is baby sit in warm garage driving only 6000 miles a year I should drive that car forever and Mini Cooper SE should take your car to Museum and give you the newest version at least 2024 siting in a dealer lot with 100 miles on an odometer as China cars not available in USA as you are like a car as I’m drive a SE to a ground . Good lack driving ! The only case I sell my SE if I get my inheritance to waist a $100000 on Porsche 718 Cayman or Boxer in next year when they come available as 911 is not in plans of Porsche to be electric.

Nice. Still got a ways to go to catch up with the 400,000+ mile EV6 I read about recently, though.

As EV6 was on market in 2022 is 3 years how somebody can put 133000 miles a year as NY taxi driver drive 50000-70000 miles in a best was that driver drives around a world ? And where he chargers?

I drive 500 miles a week, ever since I got my SE in 2020. The EV6 apparently was released in 2021 (not in the US until 2022), so someone would have to have driven something like over 2000 miles a week to be over 400,000 since then. Or run it on a roller? :D
 
lol my coworker does exactly that, St-Jerome to YUL. He just traded in his 2021 Bolt EV for an Equinox RS EV. The Bolt had 160,000 km on it IIRC.

I will try to find the story, but it was speculated that the vehicle has been in constant use by a two-driver team to shuttle organs for transplant. The vehicle is in South Korea, where this is apparently common practice.

ETA: Sorry, it was an Ioniq 5, not its cousin the EV6:

Might as well be running on a roller! But I think this is pretty good at showing people's concerns about battery life are overblown, likely based on first-generation EV experiences.
 
Early spring 2023 until today. 47,301 miles! We love ours too! Many times I drive it to work, park it, charge it at home for an hour or two, and then my wife drives it to work and back. We also road tripped it to Las Vegas and San Diego a few times from LA . It was a little tight when my wife and I road tripped it to Vegas with my mom :). We really want to road trip it to Oregon.

Very over the top! I was going to take a Microlino out but it started raining like crazy. I kept saying the hotel was a surprise and my wife was thinking “spa”… she was not impressed
