As of 2023, the number of petrol passenger cars with an engine size of at most 1399 cc in Italy stood at a notable figure. The forecast data indicates a gradual decline year-on-year from 2024 to 2028, with percentages showing modest decreases in the number of such vehicles. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period suggests a steady decrease in this category of cars annually.
Future trends to watch for include:
- The impact of electric vehicle adoption on small-engine petrol car demand.
- Policy changes favoring lower emissions which might accelerate the decline.
- Technological advancements in small petrol engines improving their appeal.
- Economic factors influencing consumer spending on personal transport.
