    iSeeCars’ data of over 8 million vehicles on the road in 2022

    It uses actual data to get a baseline of brand percentages then expands that to the total vehicles on the road total

    Its not going to be a perfect estimate, but it’s going to be close enough to avoid major errors unless something weird happened with the initial data (like not being diverse enough, but with 8 million cars that’s unlikely)

      I don’t think it needs to perfect, but without seeing the data I can’t trust it. ie one of the way the results can rigged is to set lower kilometers travel for some models.
