29% of the area is green (parks, sport, nature), against 20% in the municipality of Lochem.
Every share is calculated as a percentage of the TOTAL area (land and water together, peiljaar 2022); water is therefore one of the slices itself, not a separate whole. Green is the sum of recreational terrain (parks, sport fields, allotments, day recreation) and natural terrain (forest, open natural terrain) — agricultural land is not counted as green here.

Exel has an average of 1.5 cars per household, 15% higher than in Lochem (1.3). 25% of cars run on something other than petrol (diesel, LPG or electricity, hybrids included), about the same as in Lochem (25%).
25% of passenger cars do not run on petrol (diesel, LPG, electric etc.), against 25% in the municipality of Lochem (2025).
CBS splits passenger cars into 'petrol' and 'other fuel' only. That second category bundles diesel, LPG, electric (including hybrid), hydrogen, alcohol, LNG and CNG together — CBS publishes no separate electric-car count per buurt, wijk or gemeente, so this is not the same as an 'electric share'.
