I am a mechanical engineer with a background of working as an automobile engineer. To the best of my knowledge, any car engine should comfortably do 200000 to 250000 km with somewhat routine maintenance. I have seen Toyota cars being sold after having done 380000 km as well. So dont worry if you are not misusing the car and taxing the engine unnecessarily (no routine maintenance and rough use of the engine). Your engine should also go the distance. Having said that , it varies from brand to brand. Dont expect a Hyundai or KIA engine to last as long as a Toyota or an AUDI engine does. As for the electricals and other accessories which are attached to the engine but do not form a part of the engine-these have different life terms. These some times have to be changed depending on their use.
