They're using accident data from 2013-2017, but the linked to demographic car ownership data [0] is from 2023. Even if electric car owners tend to younger in 2023 (and I'm very sceptical), that is completely irrelevant, since what we need to know is the age of electric car owners in 2013-2017.

[0] and by data I/they actually mean a survey by a market research firm.
