[PR14] Expenditure on personal mobility
Key message
Slovenia is at the infamous top of European countries in terms of the share of household expenditure on personal mobility. In Slovenia, households spent 17% of household funds on personal mobility. In 2021, namely 10% for operation and 6% for the purchase of vehicles. A smaller share, just over 0.5%, was allocated to public transport. This does not take into account the annual depreciation cost of the car, which is the main cost for personal mobility in many households. The indicator shows the unbalanced development of Slovenia's transport system, in which individual motorized transport dominates and public transport is underserved.
