Owning a car made after 2006 isn't some massive ask, you'll probably find people driving such cars to use public transport far more often anyway.

It depends. My car was manufactured in 2005. It still works perfectly well, and for how I use it (mostly in the country, but I live in the city), it actually gets better mileage than my dad's 2021 Toyota hybrid.

Even if I could afford to buy the 2022 model year of my car, it would still be quite a significant expense and I honestly doubt it would be better for the environment, since I don't drive every day.
