The forecast for new registrations of liquefied natural gas (LNG) lorries over 3500 kg in France shows a consistent upward trend from 2024 to 2028, starting at approximately 500 registrations in 2024 and reaching over 612 by 2028. This reflects an annual growth rate, where the year-on-year increase averages around 5% based on the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) computed over the five-year period. In 2023, the registration numbers ideally should be confirmed to provide a base for these projections.

Future trends to watch for include:

Increasing environmental regulations could drive demand for LNG vehicles further as they offer lower emissions than diesel counterparts.
Technological advancements in LNG storage and engine efficiency could impact market dynamics positively.
Economic fluctuations and fuel price variability remain key factors influencing purchasing decisions in the logistics sector.
