In most parts of the world 10k+ intervals have been standard for a long time.

My (US) 2012 Mazda is 5k for Schedule A and 6.5k for Schedule B. Maybe high end cars have higher intervals?

My Subaru Impreza has a 7.5k mile oil change schedule, and i wouldn't call it a high end car.

Miles or km? 10k miles is a more recent change since about 2007 - 2008 or so with better synthetic oils.
