Little or none. At first I was thinking something like ActiveSync/MAPI – but I don’t know the details of that. So maybe none.
I just doubt whether it is realistic to use the average demolition age as a handle for something that is not the primary (or critical) function of an object. The question I have is whether this is a realistic expectation at all. Especially when you consider that about 50% of cars are 10 years old or younger. About 40% of Dutch people are 55 years or older. Are they even looking forward to “connected antics”?
You see the same thing (to a much greater extent) with smartphones, but also with ovens, dishwashers, smart doorbells, media players, etc.
The similarity is development in technology and especially the speed of development. Can you blame a (car) manufacturer for that? Should we no longer want to use this technology? Or – does that car manufacturer support further development by making new technologies more widely available?
In short: I think there are sometimes deeper issues at play here than just: the car manufacturer is no good because it does not support it until the car is scrapped.
Finally, all that (leasing) car stuff (and not having a car for many years) is, in my opinion, just a cultural/societal thing. So it doesn’t seem fair to me to blame everything on the car manufacturer.
