As of 2023, the number of motor coaches, buses, and trolley buses aged over 20 years in France was observed to be 650 units. The forecast data predicts a consistent increase from 2024 to 2028, with figures starting at 709 units in 2024 and rising to 946 units by 2028. This represents a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over this period.
The forecasted yearly percentage increases indicate a steady growth trend in aging vehicles, attributing to longer vehicle lifespans and potentially delayed fleet renewals. Key trends to watch include the impact of policy changes on vehicle replacement cycles, technological advancements, and shifts in public transportation strategies that may influence the aging fleet numbers.
