There were a few sites that tracked manufacturer adoption of when the telemetry black boxes got installed, but I cannot find the specific ones I referenced a few years ago. You can “shop” for telemetry insurance and check that way too. The car won’t be eligible if it doesn’t have the hardware.
Pre-telemetry cars from the naughties are the sweet spot. No cell connection either. New cars are icky.
When did this start to be a standard feature anyhow, and how does adoption track across brands & timeline?
