It sounds plausible at least. The average per year in the US is around 14000 miles according to the FHA, which would be a little under 40 miles per die.

I'd expect the distribution of individual amounts driven to be such that the median would be lower than the mean, but a little searching has failed to turn up any details on that distribution.

True, but there can't be that much skew--there's only so many hours in the day.

There are some people who drive for work (eg. traveling salespeople, rideshare & delivery drivers, most tradespeople) and then there are others that drive to commute to an office for 8 hours. Rideshare & delivery drivers might be on the road for 8+ hours/day, tradespeople & traveling salespeople for 4-5, office workers for 20-60 minutes, with a skew toward the lower end of that. That's a pretty skewed distribution.

I drive 0 5-6 days a week. I also drive 2000 miles to FL and 600 miles to St Louis etc etc.

Somehow I put 32k miles in my EV in 2 years despite WFH with no commute

It's more like ~35-40 miles per day in the US (which will tend to be higher than in other countries).

"The United States Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration said that the average driver traveled 12,724 miles in 2020. That’s down from 14,263 average annual miles in 2019. The 2020 average equates to 1,060 miles per month per driver, or about 35 miles per day. By comparison, the DOT said the average annual miles was 13,476 in 2018."
