vehicle ownership

Having registered transportation

Vehicle ownership is having legal title to a car, truck, motorcycle, or other vehicle.

The concept distinguishes owners from those who lease, rent, or borrow.

Vehicle ownership carries responsibilities—registration, insurance, maintenance—and rights, including the ability to sell or modify.

Vehicle ownership rates have declined among young urban adults.
