Expensive Cars

When visiting Portugal, you may notice plenty of expensive cars driving around. Naturally, you shake your head in disbelief and ask yourself: "How much money do these people make?"

This is because cars have a central importance in the Portuguese way of life.

There are a few reasons for this:

- The lack of railway development up until recently.

- The focus on building highways instead of public transport .

- The lack of investment in bicycle infrastructure.

Cars in Portugal are not only an essential tool, but also a big statement. Chega a um ponto onde as pessoas tem carros que valem mais do que as suas casas!It reaches a point where people have cars that are worth more than their houses!
