If the data collected are anonymous, what right to privacy is being infringed upon?

To me this means data like number of page views over time, etc. It's information that you get in the course of operating your service and that does not involve any personal data.

At the most basic your car does collect "anonymous driving data": It collects the distance travelled at the very least and most modern cars also work out an average MPG based on that.

"Privacy" needs to be defined here. In general the term relates to personal data. I have a right to be anonymous and left alone when I walk in the street, for instance, but others are still free to e.g. count me if they want to make statistics on how busy a street is.
