Is the overlap between terrace and apartment renters and new car buyers all that high anyway?

[yladiz]

In Germany, the majority of people rent apartments, so yes, depending on where you live in the world there is a large overlap.

Firstly, not all of them are rented.

It will be a bit lower due to higher use of public transport and lower average income. But it represents a large fraction of car ownership (about 30% of total cars; not sure about new)
