Mobility and Traffic

Cars are the undisputed number-one mode of transportation

The car continues to take the lead as the most-used mode of transportation in local traffic. While in the previous study 38% stated that they very frequently used their car when traveling locally, now 45% do. The dominance of the use of cars for day trips and short-distance travel cannot be overlooked either.

The train is not perceived as an alternative in leisure travel

On their last vacation trip only 6% used the train, while 12% did on their last short trip. As the mode transportation for day-trip travelers, the train only reached a percentage of 6% - the same percentage as those who traveled by bike.
