Exhaust systems rust quicker than the underside of cars primarily due to their exposure to high temperatures and moisture, which create a conducive environment for corrosion. The exhaust system frequently encounters condensation from hot gases cooling down, leading to water accumulation that promotes rust. Additionally, exhaust components are often made from thinner materials compared to other parts of the vehicle, making them more susceptible to rusting. Lastly, road salt and other corrosive substances can accumulate on the exhaust, exacerbating the rusting process.

They do. Cars are coated in a rust protectant paint, which can flake off over time. Once this occurs, the exposed areas are prone to rust.

Why does mild steel need coating?
If it is not coated, it is exposed to the air (or whatever) and will rust.
Why car exhausts rust so quickly?
If the vehicle has a stainless steel exhaust system it will last the life of the car. If it does not and you drive in roads treated with salt it will not last as long. Surface rust does not mean the exhaust in need of repair. Surface rust is normal on a steel exhaust system.
