Thus, the "oldest" car park is located in Siberia and the Far East region, in the Primorsky and Kamchatka regions, where the average age of cars was 20 and 20.9 years, respectively.
The situation is somewhat better in the Sakhalin, Magadan and Kaliningrad regions, where the average age of vehicles varies between 18.4-19.2 years. The "youngest" vehicle fleet is located in the Republic of Tatarstan, where the average age of vehicles is only 9.3 years. At the same time, experts note that only in two other regions of Russia the average age of cars does not exceed 10 years - in Moscow and the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug. In other regions, the age of cars on average varies between 11 and 16 years, and the average age of cars in the country was 12.5 years.
The indicator of the Moscow region, St. Petersburg, Perm region, Samara and Nizhny Novgorod regions did not exceed 11 years.
At the same time, automotive experts predict that over the next few years, the average age of cars in the country will increase, which is caused by a decrease in the solvency of Russians, as well as an increase in the popularity of used cars imported from neighboring countries.
Note that the average age of cars in Europe varies between 4-6 years, and this figure is noticeably lower in Germany, France and the UK.
