The two bar charts illustrate the proportion of automobile purchasing frequency in the year 2009 in a European nation, along with that of registered types of their cars in the same time.
Overall, residents mainly changed these traveling means every 3 year and more. Notably, second-hand cars were the most popular choices in this year, which was followed by the percentage of new cars.
As for the overall frequency, slightly more than half (roughly 52%) of the total proportions were inhabitants who possessed alternative cars after roughly more than five years. Meanwhile, category “every 3 – 4 year” accounted for approximately 37% of the total, which was significantly higher than every two year, at only about 5%. Furthermore, the rate of citizens used only one car represented around two percentage points, nearly equal to “never change” with around 3%. Finally, every year reached the least proportion, being just 1%.
Turning to the types of cars being bought, nearly 80% was recorded for the second-hand cars, making it the predominant percentage. However, approximately 25% was belonged to the total new cars. Additionally, both types were chosen by around 10%, whereas only 1% owned no car in the year 2009.
