In 2023, Italy's loaded international road freight transport volume was recorded at 31 million metric tons. Starting from 2024, projections indicate a gradual increase: a rise to 31.4 million metric tons, with continued growth reaching 33.79 million metric tons by 2028. Year-on-year growth reflects an upward trend, with percentage increases of approximately 1.94%, 1.87%, 1.81%, and 1.77% for the years 2025, 2026, 2027, and 2028, respectively. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period is approximately 1.85%.
Future trends to watch for include advances in sustainable transport practices, digitalization in logistics, and the effects of EU policies on international road transport. Changes in global trade dynamics and economic conditions will also be significant factors influencing freight volumes.
