I did not estimate anything. 8-10 years is the expected lifespan of the average car made today as designed (also known as the design lifespan). This is based on a "typical" usage of 20K miles per year (which of course is a lot more miles than many people drive, but less than others). Of course many vehicles last longer then that and many shorter then that. It all depends on how you use them. Likewise, you can expect some of the Tesla vehicles to last more or less years also depending on how they are abused or taken care of.
