According to the Munich Statistical Office, more and more SUVs are being reported. 105,931 units of this vehicle type were registered in Munich at the end of February 2024.

This corresponds to over 14 percent of all registered cars in the state capital. Within ten years, the proportion of SUVs in Munich has increased by over 400 percent. In Paris, SUVs and off-road vehicles in the French capital will have to pay higher parking fees, as the city announced at the beginning of 2024. The debate about similar approaches has been around for a long time in Germany - including in Koblenz. The Union of German cities does not automatically mean citizen-friendly cities-free does not mean Citizen-free cities, as Ulrich Lange, deputy chairman of the CDU/CSU parliamentary group for transport, said at the request of IPPEN MEDIA.. The SUV wave seems to be continuing to overwhelm Munich and the number of reported SUVs is continuing to rise, as a survey by the Munich statistical Office suggests.
