In 2023, Poland led Europe in the number of semi-trailers with a permissible maximum gross weight between 30001 and 40000 kg, followed by Denmark and France. Germany and Spain also reported significant numbers, while countries like Liechtenstein had minimal volumes. Over the past year, variations showed Poland and Lithuania experiencing the highest increases, whereas Switzerland showed notable growth. Despite their smaller baseline, Finland and Liechtenstein saw modest rises. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) highlights multi-year trends, indicating which countries have shown steady growth in their semi-trailer fleets.
Future trends to watch include the adoption of environmentally friendly transportation technologies across Europe which may affect semi-trailer fleets. Increased regulations on emissions may drive the industry towards more sustainable practices, thereby altering fleet compositions. Additionally, economic conditions and infrastructure developments will likely influence semi-trailer numbers and distribution across European countries in the coming years.
