Vehicles are not designed to last 30 yrs doesn't mean that they can't but that's not a design goal by automakers.Yup. 100 million cars on the road that are probably near, at, or over 30 years and/or 300k. Standby, and I'll get you 100 million VIN numbers. lol.
Data?? Yeah, I have lived in society for more than 10 minutes.
Average age today of cars on the road is 12 years. Doing a bell curve that means there are a lot of cars over 24 years old. There's zero less than 0 years old. I'm not super smart but this seems quite elementary.
In any case over 12-15 million cars are crushed every year which is a little under total new sales every year. This doesn't include vehicles shipped out of the country or abandoned sitting on someones property.
