Average age of cars and light trucks in the US rises to 12.1 years, accelerated by COVID-19
New research from IHS Markit shows that the average age of light
vehicles in operation (VIO) in the US has risen to 12.1 years this
year, increasing by nearly 2 months during 2020 and elevated by the
COVID-19 pandemic. The increase in average age will further drive
vehicle maintenance opportunities from an increasingly aged vehicle
fleet.
COVID-19 and its impact across the US caused a drastic reduction
in new vehicle sales as well as a sudden increase in vehicle
scrappage, which was a catalyst for increased velocity in the
growth of the average age of light vehicles. The pandemic-induced
rate of increase in average age is expected to be short-lived as
2021 will see a return of new vehicle registrations and increased
activity in used registrations as we adapt to post-pandemic
norms.
