Annual TomTom Traffic Index: Major Traffic Trends Shaping Cities Globally in 2023

Average annual fuel cost spent for a 6-mile daily round trip driven at morning & evening peak hours (total 12 mi/day), in minutes/seconds.

In Hong Kong, where the petrol price is particularly high, a 6-mile round trip driven every day with a typical petrol-powered car cost a commuter US$ 1,033 in 2023; but in Paris, traffic has had a very significant impact on a daily commuter's budget, with traffic jams "costing" them almost US$ 300 in 2023, i.e. a 45% increase in the fuel budget if these trips had been made under optimal conditions.

Impact of congestion on CO2 emissions

Ranking: Cities with the highest CO2 emissions per car at rush hour
Average annual CO2 emissions based on a 6-mile daily round trip driven at morning & evening peak hours (total 12 mi/day), in kg of CO2.
