True, class divide is a real factor: The upper class doesn't own cats (aside from "fun" cars for collecting) but leases them.
Somewhat more serious: Especially here in Germany there is a strong incentive to give cars as a job benefit instead of a pay rises as there is less social insurance to be paid. Thus there is a strong motivation for anybody in a well paying job to get a car. This directly leads to that class divide.
