Parkopedia 2017 Global Parking Index: Spotlight on Germany

KARLSRUHE, Germany, June 21, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

        
        - The Global Parking Index report was launched last month and is based on
          Parkopedia's own dataset, the most comprehensive and accurate parking database in the
          world, covering more than 50 million parking spaces across 6,500 cities in 75
          countries;
        - Germany is the 1st country from the Parking Index to be analyzed in depth; with data
          taken from the top 25 German cities;
        - Drivers in Frankfurt pay more than anyone else in Germany for their daily parking;
        - Munich tops the list of most expensive German cities for monthly parking.

These are just a few of the findings from Parkopedia's 2017 Global Parking Index: Germany. Other report highlights include:

Cost of parking for 2 hours 

Despite Germany being Europe's largest economy, it has very cheap short-term parking.

Germany's most expensive city is Munich with an average parking cost of EUR5,11 (placing it at number 90 on the global list of most expensive cities to park in for two hours).

Daily cost of parking 

Drivers in Frankfurt pay more than anyone else in Germany for their daily parking with an average daily rate of EUR15,90. This is still nowhere near the rate paid in the most expensive city in the world for daily parking: a hotel in central Sydney which charges EUR99,60 per day!

Monthly cost of parking 

Unsurprisingly, Munich tops the list of most expensive German cities for monthly parking with a monthly rate of EUR151,86.

Interestingly (not forgetting that Germany is Europe's largest economy), this monthly rate is EUR0,89 cheaper than monthly parking in either Greece or Portugal!
