The most prevalent form of motorized land transport in Germany in 2021 were passenger cars, accounting for nearly 89 percent of passenger-kilometers. Railways, responsible for the second highest share of passenger kilometers, were responsible for only 6.4 percent of passenger travel. Germany experienced repeated lockdowns and recommended physical distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic throughout 2021, which is likely to have impacted passengers' transportation choices.
