The key findings of the New Normal edition of the Mobility Insights Report, which surveyed over 5,000 drivers in 22 countries, are:

• •
  Since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, respondents across all 22 countries have become much less likely to use public transportation (65%), and more likely to use their own private car (76%)
• •
  Most respondents (79%) say the pandemic has made them more aware of the safety and comfort of having their own vehicle
• •
  More than half of respondents (53%) say they take climate change more seriously as a global threat since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic. For many (47%), this increased awareness has made them much more likely to switch to a zero-emission electric vehicle
• •
  Since the beginning of the pandemic, respondents are more likely to use online shopping and opt for home delivery for discretionary spending (47%), bolstering demand for LCV and electric LCV (eLCV) delivery vehicles
• •
  Many respondents (47%) are worried about increased congestion and pollution from delivery vehicles post-Covid – but the solution is clear: a vast majority (61%) of delivery drivers are willing to coordinate with other businesses to reduce congestion, as well as switch to zero-emission electric LCVs (75%) to reduce pollution.

• •
  Moreover, in Luxembourg and New Zealand, almost everyone has access to a car. Luxembourg has the highest access to a car with 98% of respondents having access to their own private car.
• •
  Luxembourg is the country with the highest score of respondents sensitive to the comfort provided by their own car (92%).
