BEIJING, Dec. 8 (Xinhua) -- China had approximately 415 million motor vehicles and more than 500 million motor-vehicle drivers at the end of November 2022, both ranking first in the world, according to statistics released by the Ministry of Public Security (MPS) Thursday.
Among the licensed motor-vehicle drivers, 463 million were car drivers, the official data showed.
