The forecast for Germany's international road freight transport loaded volume shows a consistent decline from 98 million vehicle-kilometers in 2024 to 84 million in 2028. This downward trend reflects a 6% year-on-year decrease from 2024 to 2025, with subsequent declines of approximately 4.21% per year to 2028. This suggests a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of -3.81% over these five years. As of 2023, the actual volume stood at 100 million vehicle-kilometers, indicating a notable shift in international road freight transport dynamics.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Increased adoption of technological innovations aimed at improving transport efficiency.
- Shifts towards more sustainable transportation solutions in response to regulatory pressures and environmental concerns.
- Potential shifts in trade routes resulting from geopolitical factors or economic realignments.
