The forecast for Germany's national transport of empty road freight indicates a decreasing trend from 1.2 billion vehicle-kilometers in 2024 to 1.05 billion in 2028. This represents a gradual decline over these years, with a consistent year-on-year reduction. It highlights a strategic transformation in logistics efficiency aimed at optimizing load factors and reducing unnecessary transport.
The performance over the five-year horizon shows a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) reflecting a slight decrease annually.
Future trends to monitor include advancements in logistics technologies, regulatory changes promoting sustainability, and shifts in economic activity that might influence road freight demand dynamics.
