Private car use has climbed up to 48 percent of the trips taken in 25 global cities in 2021, compared to the 40 percent of the trips it amounted to before the pandemic. This rise is expected to remain relatively stable, private cars representing a share of 47 percent of the intended mode of transport use after the pandemic. By contrast, the use of public transports dropped from 60 percent before the COVID-19 crisis to just about half the proportion in 2021.
