The lifespan of a rotary engine significantly depends on maintenance and driving habits. On average, a well-maintained rotary engine in a car like the Mazda RX-7 or RX-8 can last between 100,000 to 200,000 miles. Key to longevity is proper lubrication, timely oil changes, and avoiding prolonged high-RPM driving. Rotary engines are unique in design, utilizing a rotating triangular rotor instead of pistons, which can lead to more rapid wear if not correctly cared for. Ensuring the use of high-quality fuel, regular maintenance checks, and adherence to the manufacturer’s service recommendations can extend the engine's life. However, compared to traditional piston engines, rotaries might require more frequent attention to prevent common issues such as apex seal wear.
