In 2021, 39.8 million cars were circulating in Italy, 673 for every thousand inhabitants. Among the EU countries, only Poland and Luxembourg exceed this per capita value, which in the other major economies of the Union stands at much lower levels (583 in Germany, 571 in France, 525 in Spain), according to the annual report of the Istat. After all, Istat points out that about a third of families are dissatisfied with public transport: before the pandemic, in 2019, 33.5% declared very or very much connection difficulties in the area in which they reside. At the same time, the share of those who habitually use private transport to reach their place of work remains high (74.2%) and the share of students who only use public transport to get to their place of study remains low (28, 5%).
