Cars have traveled more than a million kilometers

In the automotive world, there are powerful models and more powerful models. It is known that cars have a limited lifespan and a limited distance to travel while they are with the owner in service, but there are models that surprise everyone in terms of their strength to walk and the enormous distance they cover during their service life. Is this luck, or is the difference really between the models?
