This indicator may be affected by varying perceptions of car ownership affordability, with associated costs potentially being both under- and overestimated by respondents. It does not capture the underlying drivers of financial constraints that lead to the inability to afford a vehicle, such as energy bill arrears, high housing costs, or broader conditions of material deprivation. Cross-analysis with income, housing cost, and public transport accessibility indicators is recommended to contextualise results within broader transport and domestic vulnerability patterns.
