Statistical data set: Vehicle mileage and occupancy

Published: 28 August 2024

Changes to tables including car mileage data (NTS0901, NTS0904)

Following a user engagement exercise, the presentation of the car mileage estimates has changed for 2023, to include more car types and fuel types (subject to availability of data) and to discontinue providing a private or company car breakdown. These changes have resulted in revisions to the estimates in the backseries. Please see table notes for more details.

Previous versions of these tables (up to 2022) are available.
