How many cars are registered in Alabama?

I feel like everyone I know here has at least one car, and the traffic can be terrible during rush hour. I’m just curious to know how many cars there are in the state. Does Alabama have the most cars in the U.S.?

As of 2022, there are about 5.3 million cars in
Alabama
. This might sound like a lot, but compared to the number of registered vehicles in other states, Alabama ranks 29th.
And while driving in Alabama might seem bad, the state was ranked 14th best for traffic! To stay out of some of the worst of it, you can:
  • Avoid driving during rush hour when possible
  • If you cannot, stay off of large highways and plan alternative routes
  • Let your GPS take over
In fact, your GPS is your best bet—it will use information about accidents, congestion, construction, and more to keep you on the quickest route.
