The international road freight volume of toxic substances in Germany is predicted to remain stable from 2024 to 2026, at 5.0 million vehicle-kilometers, before decreasing to 4.0 million vehicle-kilometers in 2027 and 2028. In 2023, the volume was at 5.0 million vehicle-kilometers. This reflects a stable period followed by a downward adjustment starting in 2027. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year span indicates a general decline in volume, driven by the decrease anticipated after 2026.
Future trends to watch:
- Environmental regulation impacts and their effect on freight volumes.
- Technological advancements reducing dependency on toxic substances.
- Potential shifts in demand due to economic changes or disruptions.
