I've never heard of car models named after the year after release. Weird. But here in Europe cars aren't changed every year anyway. I don't think they're ever even numbered.
Except for some brands like Peugeot and formerly Renault but those had nothing to do with the year.
But even even naming them after the year of release makes more sense than the year after. I think for cars it's sometimes done because people don't want to buy cars in the last 3 months because it affects the resale value.
- ChrisMarshallNY 1y agoCar models get year tags mentioned all the time. Sometimes, the changes between years can be crazy. Check out Dodge Chargers, over the years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodge_Charger https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodge_Charger
- wkat4242 1y agoOh yeah we don't have dodge here in Europe. Maybe it's just a US thing? Most US models are not sold in Europe because they're unpractically big or don't meet our standards. Even the US brands that operate here like Ford make models specially for the foreign market. Like the Ford Escort (now Focus), Fiesta or Mondeo.
