People who are currently 25 have less babies than people who were 25 ten years ago.
People who are currently 30 have less babies than people who were 30 ten years ago.[0]
People living familyless lives longer means that the cars will come later in their lives. Having children and not have a car is a very tough proposition, considering the volume and mass of babystuff you have to handle.
Of course the cars might not come at all if people continue to chose solitude over offspring.
