Cairo ranked first with 2.84 million vehicles, about 25.7 percent of the national total, the Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics (CAPMAS) said.

The increase marks a rebound in vehicle registrations after a slowdown in 2024, reflecting the continued concentration of vehicles in the capital.

Giza ranked second with 1.6 million vehicles (14.4 percent), followed by Alexandria with 780,500 (7.1 percent), while South Sinai recorded the lowest number at 46,700 vehicles (0.4 percent), according to CAPMAS.

Passenger cars dominated the vehicle mix, with 6.0 million licensed cars accounting for 54.1percent of the total fleet.

Private cars made up the vast majority at 5.7 million vehicles (94.8 percent), followed by taxis at 295,200 (4.9 percent), while temporary vehicles stood at 125.

The number of licensed buses reached 182,100, representing 1.6 percent of total vehicles. Private buses led with 72,900 (40.0 percent), while public buses accounted for 13,200 (7.3 percent).

Meanwhile, trucks and trailers totalled 1.4 million vehicles, or 12.2 percent of the overall fleet. Trucks accounted for 1.2 million (92.0 percent), compared with 107,700 trailers (8.0 percent), CAPMAS said in its annual bulletin on licensed vehicles.

Year-to-year swings in vehicle registrations largely reflect the interplay of import controls, currency volatility, and pricing cycles, which together shape consumers' ability to buy and the supply of new cars on the market.
