My 1998 Lexus has 425,000 plus km. My 2008 Van has 440,000 plus km . Both are in fine fiddle .
Cadillac ATS engine $6,700 USD probably at least that much again in labor to swap it in if you could find anyone who would do it for you - wehich you couldn't
You would need 4 of them to get to one million?
More than that car cost new just in engines to get to a million.
How about Cat converters? What would that cost you on a sport caddy? $5000 every 100K or so?

They don't make engines.
1.A motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy while an engine converts various other forms of energy to mechanical energy.
2.An engine is a mechanical device that uses a fuel source to create an output.
3.The word “engine” is generally used to refer to a reciprocating engine (steam or internal combustion) while “motor” is generally used to refer to a rotating device such as an electric motor.
4.An engine is made up of pistons and cylinders while a motor is made up of rotors and stators.

Especially a luxury car
Its crazy that a Tesla S could go over a million klicks. NO other luxury maker would ever consider making a product that robust.
People who buy uber luxury cars do not want to own them for years and years. They want to have them a couple of years the get a newer better model.
