In 2023, Macedonia had the highest global share of road passenger transport, with nearly 100% of its inland passenger transport reliant on road vehicles. Lithuania and Hungary follow closely, exceeding 98%. Several Nordic and European countries, like Norway and Finland, also show a strong reliance on road transport. Countries such as Japan and South Korea reflect lower figures, indicating more diversified transport modes. Over recent years, variations have remained negligible, suggesting stable reliance on road transport across these countries. The compound annual growth rate shows consistency in most of the top-ranking countries.
Looking forward, potential disruptions like increased urbanization, environmental policies promoting public transport and the integration of high-speed rail could impact road transport shares. Countries with current low reliance on road transport, like Japan, might lead in adopting multi-modal transportation solutions to enhance efficiency and sustainability.
