not because nobody does this, it means that it should be the norm. also try to point out something more of material than this. 50 years probably, is too much. 30 years is reasonable (a car of 40 years ago still runs fine, as long as the body isnt corroded and the mechanics work fine. Power steering and is critical thou. the only thing that would prohibit a car from being used is the chassis, the rest is just parts) this is not an iphone that i should be tossing around each year.

At some point, like with every car, it gets cheaper to replace it than keep fixing it. Also, there is no way car companies are going to make a car that lasts 30 years.

a lot of reliable car brands like Mercedes did it, but they knew their cars were too good and lobbied for legislation that oblige people to replace their cars each 8 years. then come the emission laws. why would i pay 40k$ for a 75kwh battery car ? at least make it 150kwh for the same price. i also dont need digital screens everwhere.

No they didn’t. There are no Mercedes brands that last for 30 years, except for individuals who take very special care of them. That’s absolute nonsense. And why should they make it 150kwh for the same price if people are willing to pay more? I don’t think you understand how capitalism works. And, like it or not, this world is mostly capitalist.
