My family bought both our current vehicles (Toyota) with >100k miles and they are now around 250k. Average cost (including depreciation!) is <$2k per year, so a little more than $150 per month, each.
Running cars longer is likely to slow down the transition to electric, unfortunately. I really want an EV, but I have never bought a new car and don't ever plan to, so I'm going to be waiting a long time for the market to deliver reasonably priced used EVs. Battery lifetime is also a question.
