I was specifically responding to op complaining about affecting classic cars. It sucks that your slightly older car might be affected by this, but don’t jump into the shade and pretend I threw it at you.
“Classic car” isn’t just some vibe. It’s literally a legal term for cars of a certain age. Depending on the country it refers to >15, >20 or >25 years old cars. That means you can have a relatively fuel efficient car that is considered a classic car.
The first Toyota Prius came out 1997 (29 years ago) and would be considered a classic car today.
Well, I guess that’s what I get for not being a car guy lol. I had no clue that the cutoff was so recent, I thought “classic” was for cars from the last century. TIL.
Did I say “fuck people with slightly older cars”?

Just so we’re clear, “the last century“ was 26 years ago…
In my experience, “classic” is over 20, “antique” is over 25.
