Not gonna lie, our robot could not handle 100 matches this season. We had to unbend and put new braces on the intake aftwr every event, sometimes during. The rest of our robot would have no problem handling more matches. Everything inside the frame perimeter is very durable and pretty much never breaks or fails. However, designing parts that can withstand high speed impacts outside the bumpers all season is quite a challenge.

Also the reason that cars last so long compared to robots is because you're not smashing them together at full speed for their entire lives. Comparing the ratio of durability to total g forces over the life of the product, robots are far more sturdy than cars.
