I would be highly doubtful of that claim. You could probably claim that SUV's cover more distance on our roads since the taxi market is dominated by them but to generalise that out of the whole public the people doing greater mileage drive SUV's would be incorrect. Remember SUV sales are still a very minor percentage of India's total car sales especially if you exclude the taxi & tourism sector.

On an average, something between 2000 and 2500 per month for me. Sometimes I am off for the better part of the month. These are the months when my car sits idle twiddling its thumb

On an average I do about 1400 kms per month.

While looking for 5 yrs old used OHC, one of my criteria was the mileage should be less than 40k
