carless

Lacking personal vehicle

Carless means without a car.

Someone who is carless lacks personal automobile transportation, whether by choice or circumstance: Many urban residents are carless by design.

A carless household relies on public transit, bicycles, or walking.

The word also describes places without cars: a carless downtown, carless Sundays.
