I’m jealous that in UK companies give such awesome car perks. So nice.I suspect it’s just a demographics/lifestyle thing - either of needing your kids to have left home before you can/want to spend £100k on a car, which may naturally see you in an older age bracket; or if it’s a company car for the electric benefits, you’d need to be fairly successful in your line of work to bag yourself a £100k company car, which again may (not always) see you being in a later life stage and higher up the corporate ladder; or at the other end of the family scale, which is more my situation, you’re at the age where you need to be able to transport elderly patents around and trying to pull your 75+ year old infirm dad out of a Taycan is neither easy nor glamorous (speaking from experience) Perhaps the older buyers also have a preference for a hip-height entry/seat height, rather than trying to unfold themselves from a Taycan with dodgy hips or the body of a wine drinker lol
For me at 44 when I placed the order, I needed an SUV for ease of parental care responsibilities, and had a fairly generous budget so long as it was an electric for company car perks, so went for the fastest/sportiest thing that ticked all the boxes and promised to have all of the tech I appreciated and utilised daily on the 4 year old etron I was replacing. Sadly the latter is currently lacking in operation on the Macan, but that’s another forum thread!
If it wasn’t for my company car budget though I wouldn’t be looking to buy my own Porsche until I probably got to that 60+ age bracket and my social life and travel bucket list quietened down.
