Being in a new environment makes you see the differences, and it helps you understand your own country’s culture, habits, and values better.

Car selection

nilsbvbgroetzinger — 2025-03-06 14:10:39 UTC

Seniors drive SUVs “Among the 10 car models with the oldest drivers, SUVs dominate, which are traditionally preferred by older drivers because they are easy to get into,” says Wolfgang Schütz, managing director of Verivox Versicherungsvergleich GmbH. This is also shown by a look at the vehicle classes. On average, SUVs have the oldest drivers. In the smaller SUV models, the proportion of seniors reaches a quarter. Only 11.9 percent of seniors drive compact class cars. On average, the class has the youngest drivers at 46.5 years old - younger even than the small car drivers at 47.5 years old. The average for all drivers is 48.3 years; 14.2 percent are 65 years old or older and 11.2 percent are 30 years old or younger.
