Hi! The English site is only a beta for now and still has many errors (especially in names and locations).
We are working hard to fix them and making more content available than ever before so expect constant updates.
The ratio of studded to non-studded tires was calculated this week following a count. The ratio indicates that 38% of vehicles are on studded tires and 62% on other types of tires. The ratio is also slightly lower than the last count in January, when it was at 40%.
Counts in the past years
At the same time last year, the ratio was 40% on studded and 60% on non-studded.
Two years ago, the ratio was also the same at 40% but three years ago it was 41.5%, and four years ago it was 41%.
Thus, the ratio has remained similar around 40% during this season over the past four years, though it can be asserted that the gap is widening, and more are choosing non-studded tires than before.
The next count is scheduled for mid-April.
