The lifespan of a subway car typically ranges from 20 to 40 years, depending on factors like design, maintenance, and usage. Regular maintenance and upgrades can extend a subway car's operational life, while harsh operating conditions may shorten it. Many transit systems opt for mid-life refurbishments to enhance performance and reliability. Ultimately, the specific lifespan can vary significantly between different transit agencies.
