In the framework of the METRIC project, the Institute of Sustainable Development (INE) analyses the levels of vehicle ownership in Europe. The map below shows the number of motorcycles per 1000 inhabitants in European NUTS2 (administrative divisions equivalent to regions/federal states). The stronger the red, the greater is the stock of motorcycles per 1000 inhabitants.
The map relates to the former MobINE contribution of stock of vehicles per inhabitants on 20.03.2014. Compared to vehicles per inhabitants, the possession of motorcycles per 1000 inhabitants is more concentrated towards Southern Europe regions, while the possession of vehicles in general is more focused on Central and Northern European regions.
