Millennials may actually care more for their cars than previously assumed. A new MTV study revealed that of those 18-34-year-olds who drive, 72% said they would rather give up texting for a week than their car, and 80% of Millennials get around most often by car versus other transportation forms. The study does, however, contradict previous findings that indicate Millennials care less about cars than previous generations. Regardless, if automakers, dealers, and ad agencies want to successfully appeal to Millennials, they must do so very thoughtfully: over 80% believe buying or leasing a car should take less time, and 87% say the buying process should be more transparent.
