I guess for me it doesn’t matter. I work 100% from home and drive very, very little. I keep an SUV for hardware store trips and an occasional foray out for lunch (or family vacation). That’s still a 2015 Honda Pilot so not exactly new, lol. Wife drives a small Focus and my son has a Mazda3.
Maybe if I was driving hours a day on the regular it would matter. Though honestly I’m not sure it would. It’s a method of transportation, not the latest smartphone. I may be in the minority with that.
I will add, not sure it’s relevant, that I’m in the percentage that would have no problem purchasing a new car. Depending on the price-point I may even be able to pay cash. Again though, I don’t need brand-new vehicles.

Totally fair, cars are more and more like smartphones these days…with all the good and bad that comes with it!
