Compared to most cars our car weighs next to nothing. Less weight requires less braking force less kenetic friction so our pads will last longer than a heaveier car. Also depends on the driver some also. If you like to slam on the brakes every stop light instead of comming to a slow stop to save gas then yeah you may not make it to 100k.

I drive my yaris very very hard. I dont plan on my brakes making it to 40k. My tires ill be lucky to get 10k miles. But im a mechanic and i get all parts wholesale from dealer or even cheaper aftermarket so dosnt bother me much. May plan to put on some performance pads and rotors when the time comes.
