The bar chart illustrates how the percentage of households with cars changed in a specific country in Europe from 1971 to 2001. Overall, the proportion of households with one to two cars registered a fluctuation, except for households not having cars. Initially, the rate of households with no cars was the highest figure, however, households using one car surpassed in 1991.
In 1971, nearly 50% of people did not use cars, which was the highest figure among all the car consumption levels. This was followed by choosing one car with slightly 35% of households, which was double the figure for two cars, at around 17%, showing the lowest consumption rates.
Thereafter, the proportion of one car ownership reached a peak of roughly 50%, surpassing the figure for not owning cars in 1991, but later saw a slight decline of just over 5% in 2001. Conversely, there was a marginal drop to about 20% of two cars ownership in 1991, before undergoing a noticeable growth of 30% in 2001. Meanwhile, the country in Europe witnessed a sharp decrease to 30% of households not using cars in 1991 and 2001.
