Transport for London’s (TfL) data on car ownership arises from its London Travel Demand Survey. This has a relatively small sample of households and therefore does not support breakdowns at multiple levels as requested. TfL has therefore provided several tables of data which cover the main elements of this question in the attached spreadsheet.

Furthermore, the pandemic affected TfL’s ability to do this survey, and therefore data for the year 2019/20 are provided, as these are the most recent robust data available.
